The 1992 Gibson Chet Atkins Nylon in Natural finish represents a masterclass in acoustic-electric guitar design. Crafted in Nashville, USA, it was specifically engineered to solve the age-old problem of amplifying nylon strings at high stage volumes without feedback.

Featuring a chambered mahogany body paired with a solid spruce top, it produces a rich, focused acoustic tone when plugged in. World-renowned for its use by Mark Knopfler, Sting, and Chet Atkins himself, this 1992 model stands as a premium studio and touring workhorse.
