Abstract

The article discusses the resurgence of 'Depression-era' acoustics, stripped-down guitars popular during the 1930s financial crisis, with a focus on Atkin Guitars' Dust Bowl series. These guitars, made of African mahogany with vintage finishes, have gained popularity among modern blues pickers and singer-songwriters for their warmth and rounded tones. The instruments, crafted by luthier Alister Atkin, are praised for their rich sound, playability, and vintage appeal, making them sought-after pieces for musicians. [Extracted from the article]
