Bruce Petros has got the corner on the market for smaller-bodied guitars, and there’s a pretty good reason why: he’s absolutely excellent at consistently voicing smaller guitars to sound as lush and full as their larger-bodied brethren. Observe the 2003 Petros Applecreek GC we have here. An umber set of Indian Rosewood back and sides and Engelmann Spruce top with Cherry bindings exhude a tonality that is darkly complex and articulate. Each string rings clear as a bell, well-balanced and rich. The smaller body is a relief to play if you’re used to wrapping your arms around a bigger guitar, and, combined with the smaller neck profile, make the instrument immensely easy to play. The low end is strong and clear, and the trebles will ring, and ring, and then keep ringing. Fingerstylists, this instrument is calling to you!
I like to strum a chord in Open D and just let the guitar play itself. The tone is chocolate-mousse rich, but not saccarine. Everything about this guitar--from the midnight-dark Indian Rosewood to the Abalone fretboard inlay and the lightweight construction--speaks to the creative impulse in the player; a guitar to inspire new directions. 
As usual, Petros has created a big guitar in a relatively small box. The bass response on this guitar is amazing and the neck feels great too. | Scale Length | 25.5600 in |
