Description This Huss and Dalton OM Custom feels like a hymn to the forests that shaped it, a guitar carved from rare and resonant tonewoods that seem almost to glow from within. The moment you rest your eyes on its Curly Redwood top, you sense the quiet power of Sequoia sempervirens. The wood ripples like wind-troubled water, its figure alive with shifting light, giving the instrument a voice even before a string is touched. Paired with the depth and fiery grain of Cocobolo back and sides, the guitar carries both visual drama and tonal gravity, a blend of warmth, sparkle, and clarity that only these woods together can summon. Inside, Adirondack spruce braces set with hot hide glue create the kind of responsive, breathing structure that has defined the finest handmade instruments for generations. Every detail visible in the photograph testifies to the thoughtfulness of the build: the rich Koa bindings tracing the body, fingerboard, and headstock; the Koa tail wedge anchoring the silhouette with quiet elegance; the Cocobolo heel cap and headstock veneer echoing the fiery hues of the back. These touches bring cohesion to the design, as if all the woods speak a single language. The ebony fingerboard is set with short pattern abalone snowflake inlays that shimmer like small constellations, leading the hand across a 25.4 inch scale built for both power and nuance. The matching ebony neo-pyramid bridge adds a vintage refinement, while the abalone rosette and abalone backstrip form a luminous frame around the instrument’s natural beauty. A tortoise pickguard brings warmth and contrast, completing the visual harmony of reds, golds, and deep chocolate tones. The neck of Honduran mahogany feels carved for long hours of playing, paired with a 1 3/4 inch nut and 2 5/16 inch bridge spacing for effortless fingerstyle work and articulate flatpicking. Gold Waverly tuning machines fitted with snakewood buttons add a final note of luxury, their appearance as striking as their performance is reliable. At just 4 pounds 6 ounces, this OM sits lightly in the hands but resonates with surprising authority, a guitar that balances sensitivity with strength. Nestled in its hard case, it feels like a rare piece of living history, crafted with patience, reverence, and a deep understanding of how wood can be shaped into song.
