Default NGD! (kind of!) Two Landola C-25 classical guitars

Picked up two older Finnish-made Landola nylon string guitars at an auction this week. Paid 100 bucks for both of them. They were plenty dusty and dirty but cleaned up rather nicely and they play and sound very nice indeed.

They're both 3/4 size and I bought one of them for my 12 year old daughter who wants to start learning to play guitar and...bonus!....the other one is mine.

No ideas about the woods used but tops seem to be a very nicely grained Spruce. The back and sides could be birch? No idea. Probably laminate but, again, looks and sounds very nice.

The guitars remind me quite a bit of some old Swedish-made Levin nylon strings I've played.
