I think the project is very much worthwhile, and you could end up with a great keeper in the end. Brian a's comments are spot on by the way.
I completely agree. I had a classical and steel stringed goya/martin and it was a good beach guitar. But the two vintage Swedish made levin goya's I've played were very balanced, and also had VERY comfortable neck profiles considering their age. I'll hopefully have the guitar by next week and start working on it the following week and after I get some hide glue and other minor supplies.
