I'm considering adding Huss and Dalton guitars and banjos to my music store. What has been your experience with these instruments? How do the guitars compare to Martin and Collings and Santa Cruz?
Also, has anyone played their banjos, especially the open back?

Thanks!!!!

They're too good for the common people.

I've never seen the banjos but every guitar I've played has been of excellent quality. A class act.

Same as Wesley; seen pix of the banjos--and if they build 'em with the same craftsmanship as their guitars, they'll be terrific. Played some H&D dreads--one mahogany, one rosewood...outstanding instruments. Fit and finish precise, and excellent. Action good right outta the box, and better, IMHO, than most Martin D's, and at least equal to Santa Cruz, Taylors, and even some small boutique or luthier builds. Good, fundamental bass, even note-to-note separation, strong mids, a bit less sparkling in the highs--take the best qualities of the guitars I listed and throw them together--you have a good idea how the H&D's sound.
