THE ORIGIN OF LEVINSON SCEPTRE

“Blade is my crown…. and this is my Sceptre.”

It’s been over 50 years since I started building and repairing guitars. I’ve had the honor of building instruments for some of the world’s greatest guitarists over this expanse of time. During the late 60’s I was part of a small but exclusive repair shop in Champaign, Illinois. We met many of the music icons of the 60’s and 70’s when they came to play at the University of Illinois and did work for everyone from the Grateful Dead to Cat Stevens.

Sceptre Guitars is the result of using my experience of these 50 years to create a line of instruments of impeccable build integrity with exceptional playability and great tone. All instruments utilize excellent raw materials, top hardware and my new line of Levinson custom wound pickups.

You owe it to yourself as a musician to experience these instruments.

Description

A real eye catcher – the Ventana Deluxe adds straight-grained ash to the alder body for a beautiful simplicity with the see-through finishes. The natural beauty of the finished wood is enhanced by the white pearl pickguard with its SSH pickup configuration. The two single coils are Levinson S-E2 pickups are bright and smooth harmonizing well with the Levinson HB-E2 humbucker. The Levinson HB-E2 humbucker is fat and warm and can be split with the push-pull tone pot.

A Wilkinson WOV 02 tremolo sits on top supported by the 14:1 die cast machineheads. Smooth tuning is ensured.

This beauty is a beast.
