Player Reviews:
"This one goes both ways..... Fingerstyle and Flatpicking that is. lol. Serious tone is generated by the top notch woods here and the quality of the Brazilian Rosewood and the Adirondack are superb. Get that big, open Petros voice with added power and push." - Paul Heumiller
"This is the only Petros dreadnought I've played and I am impressed. The fingerboard is wide enough to make any fingerstyle player happy and the tone is pure, sweet and clear. " - Al Petteway
