Default Help to identify an unnamed guitar

Hi there,
I wondered if anyone could help me to identify a classical guitar we've had for a long time.
It has no markings or serial numbers anywhere on it
I've tried searching the web but I'm a little lost.

Thanks so much

It's a steel string guitar with laminated top/back/sides, the striping around the outer edge and around the soundhole likely painted on. A low end model. I don't know the manufacturer.

Not trying to be snotty about this (at all), but that doesn't look like a guitar that's worth knowing much about IMO. Guitars like that often get used as wall-art.

Thanks for the replies.

I understand, it's just good to know as I didn't have a clue

Thanks

It is a cool looking guitar, you might put on some sort of heavy gauge electric strings or some nylon just to see how it sings. Regular steel strings might turn it into a pile of tinder...
