1947 Levin Model 1 Deluxe
1947 Levin Model 1 Deluxe
This gorgeous 1947 Model 1 Deluxe came from the first year of manufacture for Levin's top-of-the-line Archtop! This guitar is crafted from solid European tonewoods and features ornate inlays throughout and a beautiful sunburst finish with massive 18 5/8" lower bout. It sounds incredible with a sound that is much like Epiphone or Gibson archtops of the time with its own distinct dry resonance that will surely make archtop lovers swoon with ample projection, dynamic response, and headroom. Very-Good kept condition with, dings, minor checking, a couple of repaired cracks, and some playwear but all-in-all this Swedish-made workhorse is well preserved and plays great a full-figured neck that provides tons of sustain with a vibrant resonance that only comes from instruments of this vintage! This is an incredible instrument! Includes original hardshell case.
