Levin Guitars On eBay

Not every Goya guitar is a Levin and not every Levin guitar is a Goya, but the early folk model Goya guitars were made by Levin in Sweden and marketed in the US as Goya guitars. Levin guitars on eBay have a smaller listing even than Goya. The Levin company manufactured guitars from the 1950s through to the 1990s, starting with classical or acoustic guitars and then started making electric guitars.

Check the Levin history article for information about the Swedish Levin company and their overseas distributors, it will help you to work out when the Levin guitars on eBay were made and how to authenticate them. This is the current listing of Levin guitars on ebay. Make sure you sign up with eBay if you haven't already done so, before bidding, for increased security.
