Hello and welcome, Dean :) Thanks for your kind comments. If you get the pics up, we'll do our best to try and identify it. Please make sure you typ into your post any numbers etc that you can see on the guitar.

Thanks 1bassleft, I had lot of trouble with my first few post attempts
but someone was kind enough to get rid of my boo-boos. I see that the pic was there. Thanks again for all your help.

Hi again, Dino,

That inlay is not much help by itself. Looks like abalone and mother-of-pearl. Can you do a pic of the whole guitar?

Here we go 1BL , I hope this might help. Thanks Dino (It has a solid top and back, has a deep rich sound, hope to find out who made it) :D

Thanks again, Dino

Apols for the delay, Dean. I've been getting set for a quick hol and forgot this thread. Hmmm, with no soundhole label and only a symbol for the headstock inlay, ID is a bit difficult. The likelihood is that it's been made in Korea or China by one of the big concerns over there that make guitars for various others to put their name to. Nothing wrong with that; Korea and China can make good guitars depending on how much the customer company pays. If yours sounds good then it is good. Sorry I can't help on the ID (look for any stamped markings in the back of the neck on or near the headstock, though).

thanks again 1BL.
