Hi, Sounds great Alan. All the best, Ove

Very nice
Thanks for listening Roger, glad you liked it. Regards, Alan. 👍👍
Very nice indeed, sticking very close to the original. Is that an original Levin or a reissue? My pal Maurice has an original 1968 Levin, he plays it on our renditions of Don't Cry For Me Argentina and Theme from the Deer Hunter 🙂
Thanks for listening Alan, glad you liked it. I stuck as close as I could to the original ‘62 version. This is the second Levin I’ve owned, it’s a 1966 LN-26 and sounds fabulous, I know why CFMartin bought them over in 1972, they had amazing woods. Regards, Alan. 👍👍
A fine version Alan and very much enjoyed.👍👍 My best wishes! Geoff.
Thanks for listening Geoff and pleased you enjoyed it. Regards, Alan. 👍👍
Smashing cover Alan ! you have played it spot on sounded great.. Cheers Phil
Thanks for listening Phil, it proved to be a tester and as I’m not tech minded regarding my DAW, I’ve got to get it right all the way through and I think I just made it lol. Regards, Alan. 👍👍

Hi Alan, enjoyed your excellent cover of "Guitar Tango", great playing and sound 👍👍- and nice to see you play a Levin guitar, my first guitar was Levin, got it 1959 - a birthday present from my aunt. Still have it but some loose bracings make it sound weird. All the best! John
Hi John, thanks for listening and glad you liked it. I got my first Leven 335 archtop in the early 70’s and regretted having sold it and when this came up, I jumped at the chance to buy it and I’ve always known why CFMartin bought them out. 😉 Regards, Alan. 👍👍
Bravo
Another great performance Alan one of my favourite tunes
Thanks for listening Eric, pleased you liked it. Regards, Alan. 👍👍
