1970s Yamaha G-100A Classical Guitar

Here's one of those "from the underside of the iceberg of guitars" instruments -- the ones you don't see on the blog -- a Taiwan-made Yamaha G-100A classical that was just in for glorified setup work -- a level/dress of the frets (heavy-handed to keep the fretboard extension de-ramped, so to speak), saddle adjustments, and setup work.

These are good, practical, sturdy guitars that hold-up for decades without much complaint. They have a full sound (though can sometimes be overly-bassy), feel about like playing a Spanish classical, and definitely look it. They're all-ply through the body.
