The Gibson C-1  was one of a series of classical guitars Gibson introduced in the '50s and '60s. Comprised of  mahogany back and sides, spruce top, and a rosewood fingerboard.S/N: 249104Serial number indicates what year guitar was made.S/N : 176644-250335 = 19641961-1970: In 1961, Gibson started a new serial number system thatcovered all instrument lines. It consisted of numbers that were impressed into the wood. This is generally considered to be the most confusing out of all Gibson’s serial number systems used between the years 1961 and 1970. Note: If "MADE IN USA" is stamped in the back of the headstock near the serial number, the guitar is not from the 1960s, but the 1970s.
