Fingerstyle perfection: a 2007 Petros Grand Concert in Malaysian Ebony and Italian Spruce. Standard, DADGAD, and beyond, this Petros plays like a well-oiled machine. Petros Guitars can often be characterized by their balanced voice and flawless fit and finish, and this GC is no exception. Almost no effort is required; the playability as finely tuned as the string-to-string separation. The Italian Spruce top offers a creamy emphasis to the trebles, and this gorgeous set of Malaysian Ebony for the back and sides adds to the already impressive sustain.
There’s a smattering of mellow overtones in the upper-middle register which help flesh out the voice and create a lush response and bloom. If this Petros were headed out for a night on the town, it’d be dressed in the finest jet black tuxedo. It won’t take much more than a handful of notes before you lose all track of time and the whole afternoon disappears in a fit of velvet tones!
