Huss & Dalton

Its top is bordered in “rope” wood marquetry of alternating crème and black parallelograms, and the top has twin rings of rope that form a sort of slightly separated, wide herringbone appearance.  The bridge is ebony and has a rolled (compensated) bone drop-in saddle; the sides are bound in rosewood with a thin line of ebony-spruce-ebony on each border and also the back; the back stripe is small zipper wood marquetry.

One of the finest sounding (and most beautiful) new OM-model guitars you will ever have had the happiness to play, this barely used -- pretty much dead mint instrument (purchased October of 2008 and it appears to never have been played, which is why we keep it in its original hard shell case, not on display).

A guitar arrived at our showroom this morning that opens up the floodgates of fretted instrument lust – and we gotta say, this doesn’t happen very often (not to the jaded curmudgeonly reprobates that we aspire to be).  And do you know what Sinker Mahogany is, mon frère (i.e., my little Belgian French fry)?

This superb hand-crafted dreadnought re-interprets the look and sound of the Depression Era six-string large body guitar as only Huss and Dalton case.  It is comprised of hand-selected East Indian rosewood back and sides, with the coveted Adirondack "Red" spruce top.  It sports Waverly #1129 Special Issue Vintage Oval button tuning machines, and it is comfortably housed in its plush lined case. This guitar is mind-blowingly fine sounding.
