Has anyone ever seen or heard of a Granada Hummingbird guitar?

I have a Granada acoustic guitar that looks exactly like the Gibson Hummingbird down to every detail like the inlaid frets, and pick guard. The model number has faded inside, and I cant read it. I got it from my dad who has had it for at least 35 years that I know of. I havent found any information on it at all, or even seen a picture of another one. I know the Hummingbird had many copies from many company's, but I still found nothing on Granada.

I've never heard of Granada but my dad has a Hummingbird copy by Loyle (I think) and I love it. He's had it since the late '60s and I believe it was made in Japan. The tuners are terrible and it could use a fret leveling and some other work but it's an awesome sounding guitar.

 

I don't really know how to describe the sound but when I play Beatles songs on it it sounds dead on. Especially "Norwegian Wood".

 

I love that thing even though it's not worth any money and it's a copy.
