Anyone recognize this guitar? It was one I used in 1976 (1977?) that belonged to my highschool. I have been told it may be a Guild or Goya. I would like to find one If I knew what it was. Any help is appreciated. The one unique thing about it is the F holes. The only guitar I have found a picture of with similar f holes is the new Taylor T5.

Hello wwtec,

Since the pickguard is gone I cannot tell you exactly what you have but it is a Burns GB-65 or a Baldwin GB-65 from the mid-'60s. If you're in the U.S. it was probably a Baldwin branded guitar.

Here's the Burns variety (scroll down a couple of guitars):

Thanks Hans, It looks identical minus the pickguard and the color. Now that you mention it baldwin does ring a couple of bells. I will now do my search for the actual guitar.
