Product Description
The Chapman ML3 Thinline Pro Classic electric guitar delivers hot T-type "twang" and pronounced P90 punch, all from one package. While classic in design with its T-style body shape, elegant F-hole and traditional bridge with brass saddles, the ML3 Thinline is otherwise a somewhat modern affair — boasting a recessed bolt-on Maple neck for effortless access to the higher register, a smooth rolled-edge fingerboard with 22 narrow tall frets, a slippery Graph Tech nut for stellar tuning stability, and a set of high-quality Hipshot Grip-Lock tuners that allow for lightning-fast string changes.
Throw in the flexible 4-way pickup switching too, and the ML3 Thinline Pro Classic can easily become your number 1 workhorse for the studio and the stage. It's a fantastic old-meets-new axe that'll keep you inspired for many years to come!
Key Features
- Mahogany Body with Maple Top — The Mahogany back provides a deep and sustain-rich sound, which comes partnered with a Maple top that brings out plenty of top-end sparkle. The semi-hollow construction also gives the instrument a stunningly-resonant "airiness".
- Recessed Bolt-On Construction — Ergonomic design offers the feel of a set-through neck, with the practicality and "snap" of a bolt-on. The neck comes enhanced with a silky satin finish too, allowing for fast playability!
- Seymour Duncan USA Pickups — The Quarter Pound bridge pickup is a high-output design that promises humbucker-level punch and saturation in a true single-coil package, while the neck P90 gives you a fat yet crystal-clear voice that pairs up nicely with the bridge pickup.
- 4-Way Pickup Switching — Yields four tones in total: bridge pickup, bridge and neck pickups (wired in series), bridge and neck pickups (wired in parallel), and the neck pickup.
- Hipshot Grip-Lock Tuners — Ingenious locking mechanism makes restringing easier and means less string winds are required around the tuning posts; resulting in better tuning stability.
- Graph Tech TUSQ XL Nut — Low-friction material minimises unwanted tuning slips.
