Description
What makes this guitar special: Handcrafted in Holland, Wisconsin by brothers Matt & Bruce Petros since 1972, Petros guitars have steadily gained a following in the boutique guitar community. When you get your hands on this guitar, you will see why. Beautifully balanced tone combined with a lightweight, resonant design makes this guitar a dream to play. The midrange is crisp and concise, and the entire tonal spectrum is well represented in every chord, whether played fingerstyle or flatpicked. The fit & finish is impeccable, beautifully appointed throughout with hand-inlaid designs that are eye-catching without being over-the-top. This piece was recently acquired from the original owner, who seldom played it-so it showcases almost no wear at all. It’s been case kept and will remain case kept for its new owner, only taken out of its case to be photo’d. Professionally setup by the experts at Cream City Music, it will arrive ready to play out of the case.
