The Atkin "The Forty Seven" LG47 in Candy Apple Green is a bold reimagining of a classic small-bodied guitar, combining vintage-inspired craftsmanship with head-turning aesthetics. Featuring a baked Sitka spruce top, this guitar boasts a rich, open tone with exceptional responsiveness and warmth, complemented by mahogany back and sides that add depth and a woody midrange. The result is a sound that's equally at home with delicate fingerpicking or soulful strumming.
Built with pre-war scalloped bracing, the LG47 is engineered for outstanding resonance and projection, defying its compact size. The mahogany neck, with a 24 7/8" scale length and 16" fingerboard radius, is paired with an Indian rosewood fretboard and bridge, offering a silky-smooth playing experience and impeccable tonal balance. The bone nut and saddle, along with nickel Gotoh tuners and cream buttons, ensure reliable tuning and optimal sustain.
The Candy Apple Green finish, applied with an age-toned relic gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, is nothing short of stunning, adding a modern twist to its vintage roots. Cream binding and a matching cream rosette provide a subtle contrast, while the walnut headstock overlay, adorned with a gold Atkin decal and banner exudes refined elegance. The fretboard is adorned with MOP dot inlays, enhancing the guitar's understated yet distinctive style.
