guitar that i can't identify

Posted by Randy on Mon, 10/02/2006 - 01:24.

I have a guitar that I can't identify. It has the look of a Martin, and is said to have been owned by Hank Williams. The case that it is in has had HANK WILLIAMS and the DRIFTING COWBOYS printed on the cover. The guitar has a number, not like the martin, that is 4676 ink stamped insid the sound hole. it is 41" long, the body is 19 7/8 by 15 5/8 wide by 4 3/4 deep. it had 20 frets overall. There is an "M" inlayed on the top of the head, and the original manuf. name has been sanded off. The guitar has been owned by the same person since 1968. The case and guitar are in the same condition as it was back then. Any thoughts. Thanks, Randy

guitar labeled "halifax"

Posted by Brandy Thornton on Thu, 09/11/2003 - 22:03.

Hi there. This inquiry may be silly, but I'm mailing to inquire about a friend's guitar. She brought it over to play last week. It's labeled "Halifax." I've never heard of this name of guitar though I'm by far no expert. For fun, we tried searching the web to no avail. If there's anything you can tell us about this instrument, PLEASE help. THANK YOU!!

~Brandy.

My husband has a Halifax Custom guitar from the 1970's but it was made in Japan. I don't think Gibsons were ever made in Japan. Did you find out any more info about your friends guitar?

I own a guitar with the brand name Halifax - I bought it used in '82. I'm selling it now - still sounds pretty good. Japanese - but I can't find anything on a company or brand "Halifax". Anyone know about this?

I picked it up my Halifax "Gibson ES 175" circa 1987. I've been told by a tech friend that it was probably built in the mid - late '60. Regardless, its a great guitar.

And no, I no nothing about it, nor have I ever found any substantial info on the web.

Happy hunting!

My first ex-wife had a Halifax Les Paul copy and it was an awesome guitar, wish I could find it now. It had great tone and was louder than real Les Pauls I had played it alongside of.
