The Atkin OM37 'Torrefied Sitka Spruce / Indian Rosewood' is a premium model from Atkin Guitars, known for its exceptional versatility and timeless appeal. Handcrafted in Canterbury, England, this guitar combines traditional craftsmanship with modern innovations, creating an instrument that is as captivating to play as it is to look at. The Orchestra Model (OM) shape is perfect for players who want a rich and commanding tone without the bulk of a traditional dreadnought. Its ergonomic design, with a slightly smaller body, provides a comfortable playing experience without compromising on sound quality.

Atkin’s OM37 is popular among fingerstyle players and singer-songwriters, but its versatility makes it suitable for nearly any style of playing. The torrefied Sitka spruce top brings out a beautifully warm, dynamic tone that’s perfectly complemented by the Indian rosewood back and sides, known for its resonant bass and crisp treble. The hand-scalloped bracing and carefully selected tonewoods ensure that the OM37 produces a full-bodied, balanced sound, making it an ideal choice for anyone who needs a reliable instrument capable of performing across a wide range of genres.

With a modern British twist on classic pre-war designs, the OM37 features a larger top dome, lifetime-guaranteed neck/body joint, and a two-way truss rod, ensuring durability and long-lasting playability. Whether you're strumming or fingerpicking, the Atkin OM37 offers an exceptional tonal palette that suits any musical style, making it a true “desert island” guitar for those seeking the perfect all-rounder.
