Hi,

I've had a Halifax brand acoustic for about 15 yrs now. I'm guessing it was probably made in the 80's or maybe the 70's and I can't find any info on it.

Made in Japan. Dreadnought style. Looks to have a spruce top.

I believe the sides and back are some type of rosewood. 3 piece on the back. There's a lot of abilone on all the bindings and running down the edge of the neck. The fingerboard looks either rosewood or ebony. I can't tell. Tuners are sealed with a plastic casing and a goofy looking "G" on them.

 

I really like this guitar and it plays and sounds very good. The wood part of the bridge has kind of a crack in it, but it's been that way for a long time. Doesn't seem to affect anything.Stays in tune real well.

I'd like to know more about it.

Is it OK to attach some pics I took to this thread, or do I need to attach them in the sticky "show your gear" thread ?

Thanks

Never heard of this brand. Probably one of the many Japanese made guitars from the 70's. Japan flooded the market with inexpensive good quality guitars back then. Most likely laminate back and sides and a solid spruce top. Feel free to attach a picture, that's certainly allowed.
