2021 Peterson D-100 MY – Natural Finish – Boutique Handbuilt Acoustic

This is a 2021 Peterson D-100 MY, handbuilt by Texas luthier Neil Peterson. It's is a boutique, small-shop instrument built with a focus on tone, responsiveness, and traditional craftsmanship.

Peterson guitars are small-shop, individually built instruments and are not mass-produced. They are often compared with builders like Collings, Bourgeois, and Santa Cruz in terms of build quality and tonal character.

🎵 Tone & Voice

Tonally, this guitar has a full, powerful dreadnought voice with:

  • Deep, piano-like low end
  • Clear, well-defined midrange
  • Crisp, controlled high end

It has strong projection and plenty of headroom, making it well-suited for flatpicking while still responding to a lighter touch for fingerstyle.

The tone is open, resonant, and well-balanced, with strong note separation across the fretboard.
