Chapman Law Maker Traditional Electric Guitar in Blood Moon

The Chapman Law Maker Traditional Electric Guitar is a modern workhorse built around feel, versatility and a classic T-style body shape that's subtly modernised with a versatile HSS pickup configuration and expressive 2-point trem. With its weight-relieved mahogany body, flame maple top and a roasted maple neck with rosewood fretboard, it feels instantly familiar in your hands while delivering a wide palette of tones from its HSS pickup configuration and push-pull coil split. Packed with pro-level hardware and thoughtful design touches, it is ready to handle anything from studio sessions to long gigging nights.

Shaped by real-world player feedback, the Law Maker Traditional refines Chapman’s core philosophy rather than changing it. Carbon rod neck reinforcement, stainless steel frets, a precision spoke wheel truss rod, as well as locking tuners give you rock-solid stability and effortless playability, while premium electronics such as Orange Drop capacitors, treble bleed and full-size 500k pots keep your tone clear and responsive at any volume.

Player-Focused Feel

The roasted maple neck with rosewood fretboard is designed to feel broken-in from the first chord. Its comfortable profile, ergonomic fingerboard radius and carefully dialled C-shaped neck profile make bends, chords and fast runs feel natural, with stainless steel frets adding a slick, durable playing surface that will stand up to years of use.

Versatile HSS Tonal Palette

A Chapman Redline bridge humbucker is paired with Alnico V single coils in the middle and neck positions, controlled by a 5-way switch and a push-pull coil split on the tone knob. From glassy cleans and chimey rhythm sounds to punchy rock crunch and saturated lead tones, the Law Maker Traditional gives you the flexibility to cover everything from Rock, Metal and Fusion, right down to Blues, Funk and Pop.

Modern Stability and Reliability

Carbon rod reinforcement and a dual-action truss rod keep the neck stable through changes in climate and tuning, while the precision spoke wheel adjustment makes fine tweaks quick and easy. Chapman locking tuners, a Graph Tech Tusq nut and the Wilkinson 2-point tremolo bridge work together for effortless, versatile expression and tuning stability.

Thoughtful Pro-Level Details

Glow-in-the-dark side dots keep you oriented on dark stages, while the weight-relieved body improves comfort over long sets without sacrificing tone. With a treble bleed on the volume knob in partnership with premium Orange Drop capacitors and full-size A 500k pots, this single-cut workhorse is built for tone shapers after a reliable stage and studio-ready workhorse that won't let them down.
