Default NGD Nowland "James" SJ w Sound Clips

New to me anyway, somebody traded in the wonderful guitar to Guitar Center, man they must have needed something real bad to give it up.

The top is yellow cedar, back is heavily flamed Koa, the neck is a 3-piece maple with reversed center piece. It isn't extremely loud, but is extremely articulate with a very sweet tone. The construction is IMMACULATE throughout.





Here's some clips I just did...

That is very sweet toned indeed - and lovely playing! I haven't heard of this maker before.

Very nice, that's a great find. I've been very curious about Nowland guitars but have never seen one in person.
Was that the Ogden G.C.?
