Atkin L-36 Kingfisher, The Thirty Six
Pickup available from Folkway Music
Usually ready in 24 hours
Although clearly inspired by the Gibson-made Kalamazoo Oriole KGN-12 of the early 1940s, the Atkin L-36 Kingfisher pecks a bit higher on the food-chain thanks to the model’s X-bracing and improved playability. A beautifully made 14 fret L-sized flat top with maple back and sides and a baked Sitka spruce top, the Atkin L-36 Kingfisher combines great looks with a punchy, robust voice that promises to get all your birds chirping.
Kingfishers nest on the headstock face and pickguard, the body is dressed up with tortoise celluloid bindings and an aged gloss natural lacquer finish; mahogany neck with rosewood board, rosewood bridge with a bone saddle, vintage style tuners, and an ebony nut. Under the hood you’ll find Atkin-designed scalloped X bracing.
Soft V neck carve, 1-11/16” nut, 2-1/4” string spread at the saddle, 24-7/8” scale.
With Atkin hardshell case.
