G-50
The first Gallagher guitar was made in 1965. It was
designated model G-50 because J. W. Gallagher was 50 years of
age. A G-50 used by Doc Watson from 1968 to 1974 has been on
display at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville,
Tennessee since 1975. This guitar was used on all of Doc's
recordings on Flying Fish except one.
The G-50 is still a favorite. It features select
quarter-sawn
African Mahogany back and sides and a stika spruce
top. The sound hole and top purfling are black-white wood
strips. The body and headstock are bound with ivoroid. The
ebony fingerboard is unbound with pearl dots. The finish is
highly polished

GA-70
The GA-70 was introduced to the Gallagher collection in
1998. This grand auditorium model features a rosewood back and
side with a select sitka spruce top.
It has appointments like all of the 70 series guitars: ivorid
bound body, neck and fingerboard; mother-of-pearl diamond and
square position markers; ebony fingerboard and bridge;
herringbone purfling and sound hole rosette; bone nut and
saddle; and chrome Schaller tuning keys.
The neck width at the nut is 1 3/4".
The grand auditorium body provides the balance desired in a
fine fingerstyle guitar with a stronger presence than the
auditorium body style.
This guitar has quickly established itself in the fingerstyle
playing community winning approval by such excellant players as
Gayla Drake Paul.
