Subject: RE: Ever heard of this guitar
Eric in Derby,
My guess is that Yours would be a model 163.
I have a Goya model 163 Goliath, which I think is a 1969. This was the Year the model 163 replaced model LN-26.
I also have two Goya model 174, which was the replacer of LT-18.
They all are amazingly nice guitars.
The sunburst version of the Goliath, which I believe is the original Goliath, is actually available as a replica by Moon guitars. They make a Goliath clone, based on the original Goliath once owned by the late Thomas Fraser, a fisherman/trubadour /guitarist from Shetland.
