A sweet blend of darkness and clarity, liquid trebles and articulate midrange, glassy playability—these are the first things you’ll notice when you pick up this 2007 Petros Grand Concert. This is a fingerstylist’s dream machine, with a wide fretboard and clean note separation, and it’s ready to take onstage with an L.R. Baggs Anthem SL pickup. Brazilian Rosewood back and sides, Adirondack Spruce on top, and the lovely sunburst that spans the top was installed by none other than Bill Tippin himself!
This Petros will handle a wide range of tunings, but it’s also right at home in regular ole’ Standard, and it even takes to a flatpick well. We see a lot of guitars that try and split the difference between fingertips and picks, and we see a lot of guitars fail to satisfy either category. This Petros is not such an instrument; played softly or digging in with a pick, the voice remains clear and focused, with a touch of darkness in the bass response to really fill out chords. Plus this beauty comes wrapped up in a Hoffee flight case, so you can rest easy when it’s safely cocooned between performances.
A fantastic guitar that can be whatever you need it to be, when you need it: our 2007 Petros Grand Concert is a lifetime of music waiting for you.

With the sunburst finish added by Bill Tippin, this Petros guitar is incredibly beautiful to me. The Adirondack top over Brazilian Rosewood makes it more powerful than some of Bruce’s guitars it’s happy to play hard or soft. I love everything about it. | Scale Length | 25.5 in |
