Huss & Dalton/Jim Hurst Guitar Clinic-- August 23, 2003

Music Folk proudly presented IBMA Guitarist of the Year, Jim Hurst, for a Huss & Dalton Guitar clinic recently. A Huss & Dalton endorsee, Jim does a select few of these appearances each year, so we were very excited to have a musician of this calibre in the store showing off one of our favorite guitar lines. Jim's appearance was a combination of Huss & Dalton clinic, discussion about his style and techniques, plenty of Q &A, but most importantly a healthy dose of flatpicking and fingerstyle playing. The sizeable crowd seemed very pleased both with the evening's performance but Jim's winning personality and charm. And considering this was a FREE event, you missed a good one!

Jim spent the early part of the evening talking about the quality of construction and superior tone that Huss & Dalton guitars provide for him on stage or in the studio.

Jim took a lot of questions ranging from practice methods to exploring alternate tunings to pure flatpicking tenchniques

Of course, the best part was hearing the man play!
Many of our employees made time on a Saturday night to see this one. Pictured from left to right are Pete Buncher, Lindsey Smith, and Charlie Halloran.
Jim stayed late to sign autographs, talk, and just hang out. Here's a picture of Jim and one of our owners, Don Ploof.
