Comments:

Speaking and dealing with Peter is an absolute pleasure. A consummate professional, he’s also a very nice man and very talented. It’s my pleasure to represent his work through my gallery. The guitar is in excellent condition, nothing to report on her. She is pretty, powerful with a wonderfully musical voice.

Peter builds one of the finest American guitars I can easily offer through our gallery.

Guitar has arrived, where I put it through a full internal and external inspection. First, she’s gorgeous. Meticulous workmanship, it’s very clear that Peter takes much pride in his work. The Rosewood definitely reflects a bit of checking, which you can see in the photos. Lighting enhances them, where they are not anywhere near that visible. I do transparency, not trying to hide anything from anyone, ever.

The guitar, among many great attributes being completely French Polished and having sound ports. The sides are solid with a double laminate of Indian Rosewood for additional stiffening being transmitted to the top.

There is moderate play wear on the top, nothing structural at all, nail ticks et al. She’s actually quite nice. Photos will help you see what you need.

From Peter directly, who was helpful to me in getting the description correct:

Distinguishing Characteristics:

Headstock is carved and stippled, with the stippled area left unfinished
Guitar has a label with the number #129, date, and signature
There is a ‘pdo’ stamp on the foot of the neck block, visible through the sound hole
The cedar top has a band of darker color approximately the width of the tie block
Guitar has a 12-hole tie block

The guitar is a beast of a player, with a superb voice. A very special guitar by a gifted luthier.

Media

Listening with high quality headphones or audio equipment is highly recommended including EQ manipulation, if possible. We record everything flat with just a touch of Reverb to relieve dryness. My goal is to record the guitar as realistically as is possible. I speak in the recordings, my thoughts about the guitar (and possibly other things?). My speaking also serves to give you my first impressions and to also give you a balance of the engineering (or lack thereof) versus the sound of the guitar. I simply do not have time to engineer much of anything. Thanks. Rich

MP3 Audio – 220325-2013 Peter Oberg 129 Cedar EIRW 640mm – this is a gorgeous sounding and playing guitar, with a smaller scale of 640mm perfect for those with slightly smaller hands. I try my hand at the new piece, “My Two Girls”, then Dance Lady Diva, a Study in E Minor and Prelude #17 in C Major. It’s all my fault, not the guitar’s. She’s great, I’m not. LOL

My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested.
