It turns out that their pre-stressed arched top and symmetrical bracing and proprietary spruce bridge plate are ideally suited to meet the strength and tonal needs of a 12 string guitar. In addition, their cleverly designed back

slanted bridge and saddle make for the perfect string clearance needed for the back strings as well. Petros Guitars uses wooden tuner buttons that they hand make exclusively on all their guitars, and their 12 stringers are no exception. These buttons were designed specifically for the 12 string and as such are smaller. This takes a significant amount of weight off the head making this 12 string lighter than
you are likely used to, and perfectly balanced. Don’t forget their unique neck contour! All of these features make for a guitar that is light, stable, responsive and a joy to play.
