To multitudes of contemporary guitarists, the dreadnought is the king of the heap, and the Huss & Dalton TD-R leads the pack as a rosewood flat top that brings the best of the past to the requirements of the present. Indian rosewood back and sides and a custom thermo-cured Sitka spruce top are dressed in herringbone and ivoroid trim. A powerful bass register stands above a rich balance of mids and highs, creating a guitar that was born to lead the band.
