Reissue Chapman ML-1 and ML-2 available to order now!

This news item was uploaded on: 01/10/2012

Rob Chapman's original ML-1 and ML-2 guitars were huge hits but only available in limited numbers. So in 2012 Rob decided to take the Chapman guitar brand up market, and moved the production to Korea (from China). The new factory introduced some new features, improved the build quality, and added new colours to the original ML designs. Whilst the 'Professional/Affordable' essence of the original ML guitars still shines through, we think you'll all agree that the new ML-1 & ML-2 guitars are a significant improvement on the original designs!

The first run of Chapman guitars is arriving in the UK in February 2013, that may sound a long way off, but we are only getting about 30-40 of each colour so we're expecting them to sell out fast! We're scheduling deliveries every month or so after February 2013, so hopefully supply will be good going forward. None of these models are limited edition, so there shouldn't be any problems getting one if you miss the first delivery, but get your order in now to have bragging rights at get one of the first batch!

Chapman ML-1

The new Chapman ML-1 features a 2 piece Mahogany body with flame maple veneer on selected finishes. The HSS configuration custom pick-ups are wired with a coil tap for the humbucker allowing a breadth of different tones, truly worth of the 'workhorse' ethic that was central to the creation of the ML-1.
