Alistar Atki / J-35 / 2013 / Guitar
We are proud to introduce Atkin Guitars to the Continent of Europe. Alistar Atkin is a young but highly regarded upcoming Luthier from the UK. After we picked up the good news that Alister and his crew were rewarded Acoustic Guitar Award Winner last year we decided to order a few of his magnificent slope shoulder guitars.
This Atkin J-35, that he revers to as 'Thinline series' has been designed to bring you the comfort and ease of playing a big bodied guitar but with OM depth. Typically a J-45 is 125mm deep and this Thinline J-45s is only 105mm deep. This depth makes the J-45 much more attractive, without compromising the typical J-35/J-45 feel and tone. The J-35 is similar to the J-45 but with a 12 fret neck joint, the sound hole has been moved closer to the waist which some people consider to be the sweet spot, it also brings the bridge into the middle of the lower bouts. We are very pleased with the two first Atkin guitars, they truly deliver what we expected them too!

The Fellowship Of Acoustics, Netherlands
ABOUT US
I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
