The Huss and Dalton CM Custom in Bearclaw Sitka spruce and zebrawood is a striking blend of precision craftsmanship and bold natural beauty. Built in Staunton, Virginia, this instrument reflects the meticulous standards that have defined Huss and Dalton for decades. Every detail feels intentional, from the carefully selected tonewoods to the clean execution of its appointments. It is a guitar that commands attention visually, yet delivers the kind of tonal depth that keeps a player engaged for years.
The bearclaw Sitka spruce top immediately sets this CM apart. Its distinctive figuring adds character without compromising strength or responsiveness. Paired with Huss and Dalton’s radius top build style, the soundboard produces impressive clarity and headroom, offering a strong fundamental with articulate overtones. The voice is balanced and dynamic, equally at home under a light fingerstyle touch or a firm flatpick attack. Notes bloom with warmth and sustain, while the projection remains focused and refined.
Zebrawood back and sides bring both visual drama and tonal character. The bold striping of the bookmatched set continues onto the headstock veneer, creating a cohesive aesthetic from body to peghead. Sonically, zebrawood sits between rosewood and mahogany, delivering a crisp low end, defined mids, and shimmering highs with a quick, lively response. The zig zag backstrip and curly maple bindings frame the instrument beautifully, adding contrast and elegance against the darker tones of the zebrawood.
The Honduran mahogany neck offers a smooth, comfortable feel, anchored by a 1 3/4 inch nut width and a 25.4 inch scale length that provides ideal string tension and articulation. With 2 7/32 inch saddle spacing, there is ample room for intricate fingerstyle passages while remaining comfortable for strumming. The ebony fingerboard and belly bridge add clarity and snap to the attack, while the 12th fret mother of pearl scroll inlay provides a tasteful focal point without overpowering the clean design.
Details elevate this custom build even further. The abalone and koa rosette adds a refined shimmer around the soundhole, complemented by the classic black white black top purfling. Gold Gotoh 381 tuning machines with ebony buttons provide smooth, reliable performance and a touch of understated luxury. At just 4 pounds 4 ounces, the guitar feels lively and resonant in hand, a testament to careful voicing and thoughtful construction. It arrives protected in a classic Huss and Dalton tweed case, ready for the stage, studio, or wherever inspiration strikes.
This CM Custom is not just visually compelling. It is a serious musical tool with depth, balance, and personality. For the player who wants something distinctive yet timeless, this is an instrument that delivers both substance and style in equal measure.
