Gallagher says of their G-45 Songwriter model: In designing the G-45S, we want to provide a more affordable opportunity to step up to a truly handmade guitar that is of superior quality in construction and sound to a factory guitar. In addition, we want the finish to reflect the ability for it to be a workhorse guitar for everything from writing songs to hitting the road for songwriter rounds to bluegrass festivals.

This particular G-45S was won by flatpicker Roy Curry in a competition. It sounds and plays great, as you'd expect, and is in good condition with only some light finish delamination on the back of the headstock and the back binding to note. Includes its original hardshell case.
