Episode 247 - Goya Model 80

In the 1950s Goya was importing acoustic guitars made in Sweden by Levin, a company that Herman Carlson Levin had founded some 50 years prior. When it was time to electrify things, Hagstrom was brought in to do the honors. The resulting Model 80 was a Mid-Century Modern masterpiece that used every bit of bling available in its day: chrome, plastic, buttons AND knobs, and of course mother-of-toilet-seat for the neck and headstock. Enjoy!
