A customer came in with three Levin parlors from 1920. Not so unusual, but they are in NUMBER ORDER! See the picture.

47232, 47233 and 47234 🙂 They have been in a Free Church congregation and held together for almost 100 years. Of course purchased at one and the same time.

Two with floating stables and one with fixed stables. The one with a solid stable and the one with a floating stable that is in the worst condition will eventually become Old Guror. The tuning screws were a bit hip that happed everyone, the one with fixed stall playable and sounds really good. The one with floating stables in good condition has now got the neck turned, new tuning screws, a carbon fiber rod in the neck and new brass band bands and is ready for delivery.

Took the pictures with my old camera, should have used the new one!

The renovated with floating stable had an interesting early stable where the strings pass through the stable in rosewood and the old type of string holder with "mouse spike" ears. The stable where the strings rest on a belt is a good solution. Sounds unexpectedly good for being original, just a little thin in tone due to the birch twig across the lid under the stable.
