Huss & Dalton CM CUSTOM exc. condition 1997

Huss and Dalton opened up shop in 1995. This beauty was built in 1997, making it a collector's item. Jeff Huss and Mark Dalton imagined a guitar that paid homage to tradition and also incorporated improvements to the structure and cosmetics of the distinctly American steel string guitar.

CM is the Concert Series, a small body guitar -- like an OM style but with deep sides.  Radiused soundboards design is a boost in the mid-range, giving a more perceptibly balanced tone than a strictly traditional design with plenty of sustain.

Customs Upgrades on this guitar, that add about $1000 to the CM base price, include: Honduran rosewood back and sides; slotted peghead with nickel Waverly tuners; and factory-installed under saddle pickup.
