Mark Dalton recently stopped by Artisan Guitars in Nashville to talk about Huss & Dalton Guitar Company’s history, building philosophy, and more. In this informative video, Mark tells the story of one special series of guitars that Huss & Dalton built from the wood from a tulip poplar tree that was planted in 1808 at Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello estate, and delves into many of the important nuances that make Huss & Dalton guitars the sought-after instruments they are.

Molly Tuttle joins Mark to demonstrate several Huss & Dalton guitars as well, including her own Huss and Dalton TDR with Indian rosewood back and sides and thermal cured red spruce top.
