RE: Levin guitars

Robin Williamson of The Increible String Band used a Levin (although Im not sure of the model). He used it on some albums that are rightly regarded as the finest music ever recorded. Listen to Witches Hat for a taste of the depth of tone he got. Its on The Hangmans Beautiful daughter album by the way.

Apparently he played it professionally for a long time (20 years) before it needed replacing - I think for a high end Gibson (that sounds nice too!)

Happy picking
