We are also happy to provide high resolution pictures to anyone interested in purchasing a guitar.

This vintage Dreadnought was built in Sweden.  It has a big, full sound from the maple sides and spruce top.  It is in fair + condition with cosmetic cracks on the top.  It plays well and the frets are in good condition.


Goya acoustic guitars were manufactured by Levin Guitar company of Gothenburg Sweden between 1952 and 1973.  Model 163 was introduced in 1969 and is a reworked version of the Goya N26. The difference is the shape/appearance of the headstock and pickguard plus minor modifications to the bracing system.


The Goya brand was in 1969 owned and distributed in USA by Avnet Inc., but sold to Kustom Inc. in Kansas sometime around 1970. The brand was later sold to Dude Inc, also in Kansas, sometime 1972/73. The same guitars were sold in the rest of the world Levin branded. These guitars are increasingly hard to find.
