✨2022✨ Levinson Sceptre SA1 Arlington Standard Butterscotch Tele Style Guitar!

Levinson Sceptre Arlington Standard Butterscotch Blonde – Near Mint 2022 Model

 

A seriously impressive Tele-style guitar from Levinson Sceptre, designed by Gary E. Levinson and built with a specification that punches well above its price point.

 

Finished in classic Butterscotch Blonde with a black pickguard and maple fingerboard, the Arlington Standard takes everything players love about this style of guitar and adds some thoughtful refinements. The traditional hard-edged body shape is paired with a rear belly contour, making it noticeably more comfortable without losing the familiar look or feel.

 

This example is in near mint condition. It has seen very little use and shows only the lightest handling and very light play marks if examined closely. Overall it presents beautifully and has clearly been very well looked after.

 

The North American alder body gives it a lively, balanced response with plenty of definition through the mids, while the North American hard rock maple neck and maple fingerboard give it that immediate, crisp feel you expect from a great T-style guitar.

 

A matched pair of Levinson custom-wound Alnico 5 pickups provide plenty of character. The T-E1N neck pickup is full and rounded with plenty of punch, while the T-E1B bridge pickup delivers the bright attack, bite and solid midrange these guitars are known for. Together they give a superb middle position with plenty of clarity and body.

 

It is also fitted with a Wilkinson WOT03 bridge with six individual saddles, offering accurate intonation and a solid, responsive feel.
