Is working on the batch of 8 GammelGura and this was given priority as it will be delivered on Sunday.

A very unusual Levin from 1908. Unusual as it is larger than the usual parlor size, the oldest I have seen. The medium-sized Concert is the second largest, there is a harp format as well. It's grandpa's guitar that hung unplayable on the wall, now grandpa will get it as a present 🙂

No major problems with it except that it was renovated by a cousin who did not really know how to do. Had to work a little extra with repairs to the neck attachment that was damaged. The stable was also planed down, I spliced ​​on a piece on top in the middle to get back the height. The tuning screws were improbably loose (about one lap "clearance") and were replaced with new ones. Otherwise the usual with carbon fiber rod in the neck, new ribs and a K&K mic. The fretboard in extra fine brazilian rosewood got some play pits filled with sanding dust and super glue, a dot was missing and replaced with a new one.

Sounds very good. Thinned out the thick bottom to normal 3 mm instead of 3,8 with my roller plaster and put a middle stick in rosewood when the bottom shrunk.

A picture from a small video clip (unfortunately without sound ..) where grandpa rehearses the guitar at the handover. It intones as it should! 

Other objects in the batch are about halfway, repairing cracks in the body and gluing ribs in the lid. The bottoms and necks of all are almost ready.
