It's not a CBG but had to be rebuilt.
Sounds of an old german parlour guitar from the 1900's... sound samples D tuning and glass slide, original rusty metal strings!

Mind you this was very likely to be a nylon strung originally.
So how old the strings are is debatable!

I think the metal mix was different in those days
But it's probably what ripped it apart!
