Peterson Acoustics is committed to creating one of a kind guitars with stories and meaning behind them that are not only beautiful, works of art but designed with my utmost attention to detail in design and construction to craft a structurally sound and tonally pleasing instrument setup to play as comfortably as possible. Please contact me to discuss your special project.
Custom Instruments
I primarily build finely crafted, steel string acoustic guitars. I'm happy to build with any high-quality tone woods, but I often feature Native Texas Mesquite and various reclaimed woods in my guitars. A niche that has developed over the years is reclaiming woods and various other elements out of old discarded pianos, incorporating them into my guitar builds. Examples include using the piano soundboards and their braces for guitar tops their braces, upright piano backposts for guitar necks and bridge patches, ivory keys covers for fingerboard and other inlays.
Customization options
Nearly anything can be customized on your instrument such as inlays, laser engravings, electronics, bridges, bindings, headstock, fretboards, tuners, the guitar's shape and specialty wood types. Check my pricing page for many of the custom options available.
