Default Help with Identifying this Nylon String Guitar

Hi all,

I hope someone can help me with this. I've been trying to identify the make of this nylon string guitar. There's no logo or brand name, but I'm hoping the unique headstock shape would provide a clue. Thanks in advance.

Not familiar with the dramatic label. US domestic is a vague guess - the headstock shape and rosette giving me a vibe.

Thank you for trying. I'm at a loss, but I really like the sound as it reminds me a little of the guitar that Willie Nelson plays. Here are a couple of the videos of acoustic performance:

I may just try to look for a vintage Martin nylon.

The large tuner slots make me think possibly Canadian, influenced by Monch, Larrivee, et al.

Canadian sounds promising. Indian Hill Guitars in Quebec doesn't make classicals, but look at the label and rosette similarities.

Thats a pretty cool looking guitar. It has more of a parlor shape than standard classical shape it seems. Unfortunately I have no clue what it is. Maybe custom?
