So we did! Chuck Levin’s has brought everyone to the table with the Watermelon King Series, sharing the sweetest collection of acoustic and electric guitars you’ve ever seen, or tasted!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNot wanting to leave anybody out, we invited Gibson’s Murphy Lab, Fender’s Custom Shop, and Taylor Guitars to the table, challenging each of them to dream up their own flavor of watermelon red. The end result is a mouth-watering array of 18 different guitars and basses - everything from Les Paul to Trini Lopez and Stratocasters to Jazzmasters! Our guitar shop also added custom color-coordinated bridge pins to the Taylor 414ce as a fun little flourish!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe name for this exciting collection came from a newspaper clipping featuring a photo of Marge Levin and her father, Al Lipshultz. Al had presented a mammoth watermelon to his local farmer’s market, earning him the title of “Watermelon King.” The color, Al’s fun title, and the idea of bringing our friends to the table to share something sweet was the inspiration we needed!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe love that every instrument in this collection is a bit different - the color being uniquely interpreted by the craftspeople involved. Each instrument will include a unique Watermelon King Series COA, some fun swag, and of course the warm vibes that come with sharing all the good things with friends and family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Watermelon King Series is available exclusively at Chuck Levin’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Wood: Ash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish Type: Heavy Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom Color: Watermelon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Type: 52 Tele Custom Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Finish: Medium Tint Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Wood: Riftsawn Roasted Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Wood: Heavy Relic Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTruss Rod: 50's\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Frets: 21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning Keys: Vintage with Fender Logo Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting Holes: 4 Bolt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFret Wire: Medium Jumbo\/6150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFace Dots: Micarta Black .250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Radius: 7.25\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width: 1.650\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Shape: 52 Style \"U\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Material: Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSide Dots: Micarta Black 3\/32\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: 51\/52 Tele Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Jack: Vintage Tele\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Plate: Vintage Tele Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings: 10-46\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eString Tree: Vintage Disk 50-55 Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: 4-Ply Brown Shell Nitro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch Tip: American Vintage Tele Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolume Knob: 52 Tele Knurled Chrome Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: Present Day Tele Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: Seymour Duncan Antiquity Humbucker SE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: Relic 51 Nocaster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiscellaneous\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings: Fender® USA 250R Nickel Plated Steel (.010-.046 Gauges)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded Accessories: Deluxe Hardshell Case, Strap and Certificate of Authenticity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: Fender\u003cbr\u003eModel: 9232001287\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I720200-N-R127249-0-WHXD\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 717669945794\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
