Late 1940s/Early Levin Model 20 archtop in very good condition with minimal amounts of wear throughout the instrument. A utility grade Levin that is structurally sound and sounds great. The top is braced with a single brace that crosses the body in the style of a Stromberg, a detail that those in the know will appreciate. The original flat walnut fingerboard was too soft to let the guitar sound its best, so Tom replaced it with a radiused rosewood fingerboard. This guitar has been refinished, and the other changes are the replaced fingerboard, replaced tuners, and a previously repaired back crack. This guitar was constructed with a solid carved Romanian spruce top, solid flamed maple back, birch sides, maple neck, rosewood fingerboard and rosewood bridge. This guitar features a scale length of 24 3/4”, fingerboard width at the nut of 1 11/16", thickness at the first fret of 0.88”, thickness at the tenth fret of 1.08”, and weighs 4.84 lbs. Comes with a non-original hardshell case.
