Huss & Dalton
Huss & Dalton Guitar Company has built acoustic guitars in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia since 1995, when Jeff Huss and Mark Dalton founded the shop. The catalog runs from steel-string flat-tops through a smaller line of electric guitars, with a longstanding focus on the pre-war American flat-top tradition — the Crossroads, the T-OO, and the TD series among the recognizable builds. Brian Dickel, a long-time member of the team, took over ownership in 2021, and the shop continues building under the same craftsmanship principles.
Down Home Guitars
Down Home Guitars has been a Frankfort, Illinois fixture since 2008 — set inside the historic Trolley Barn just southwest of Chicago, with a deliberately narrow focus on hand-built acoustic instruments. The shop carries Bourgeois, Collings, Huss & Dalton, Lowden, and Santa Cruz alongside George Lowden Master Series and Hinde, with new and used inventory rotating side by side. Owner Steve Haberichter has tied the shop deeply into the regional bluegrass community: the affiliated Frankfort Bluegrass Festival has won IBMA Event-of-the-Year recognition, and weekly jams Steve hosts at a nearby brewery keep musicians circulating through the doors. The Down Home Music School operates upstairs — more than three hundred lessons a week across six insulated lesson rooms — and a full repair shop covers everything from setups to neck resets. The retail floor, the school, and the festival presence together make the shop a regional anchor for acoustic musicians across the Chicago south suburbs.
