"I stumbled onto Bruce Petros and his wonderful guitars quite by accident. I was doing a series of concerts in the Green Bay area of Wisconsin. On this particular night, I was in Appleton attending a pastor's conference at which I would be performing the following evening. To my surprise, I was asked to perform one song that evening. I was explaining that all of my gear was at the hotel when one of the worship leaders handed me a guitar. It was a Petros grand concert model. Knowing how guitars can embarrass musicians, especially when you're not acquainted with the instrument, I reluctantly agreed.

Suffice to say, Bruce's guitar was very gracious, covering my mistakes and making me sound much better that night than I really was. The tonal qualities of his instruments are very rich, and the playability is exceptional. I am pleased to add his spruce- topped, grand concert model to my collection of cedar- topped guitars." - Jim Cole
