This guitar is the guitar that Niall used at his first concerts from One Direction. You can see the brand at 0.30 to 0.50 in the video. Freshman has a lot guitars that look like this one, but this one is the only one with a red waterdrip on it, the sides are the same colour as the back of the guitar and the head has golden buttons and the head self is almost black wood. This was his guitar before the Taylor.
