Body & Neck

Chapman have opted for Mahogany for the body, with a stunning Flamed Maple top. This provides you with uncompromising sustain and excellent clarity, particularly in the midrange and top-end. The satin finish and contoured top ensure a classy yet bold aesthetic and a comfy playing experience in equal measure.

For the neck, they've opted for satin-finished Maple, with a set-neck configuration featuring a volute. This reinforcement, combined with a dual-action truss rod, means sturdy tuning stability and excellent proficiency with drop-tuning. The satin finish and familiar C-shape neck means you'll be right at home, whatever your style! 

Hardware & Electronics

Chapman have loaded the ML1 Pro Modern with two Sonorous humbuckers; power, clarity, a dense midrange and a hefty low-end perfectly complements the Mahogany and maple construction. Expect soaring sustain and a crystal-clear top-end, clean or distorted.

A 5-way pickup switch and a push-pull coil-tap vastly expands your tonal palette. What first appears to be a simple HH configuration suddenly becomes a hugely versatile instrument that'll efficiently handle whatever you throw at it. Top it off with Hipshot grip-lock open tuners, a Graph tech black tusq XL nut and alluring black hardware across the board, and you've struck the perfect balance between versatility and attitude.

Mr. Glen Smith20th May 2020

I had a play of a Chapman ML1 guitar while I was in Andertons last year and it played and sounded fantastic. I had a recording project on the go so I decided to order one for a couple of the tracks .. It sounded great on the tracks and would recommend that people try them out. A great price for a lot of guitar.

Amazing sound and build quality. Beautiful looking guitar too.

Mr Merv Bull11th Jan 2019

I took a gamble on this guitar, having never tried on or seen one in the flesh. I went solely on various reviews including Andertons YouTube Channel, which I have always enjoyed wasting many an hour watching. The Guitar itself is beautifully made with a lovely thick maple cap and I love the through neck design. So far I am really pleased with it and If I were to make any criticism, it would be that the action was set a little high. As to the hardware and pickups, they are top notch. I would highly recommend this guitar to any would as it is so versatile and covers pretty much all genres of music. It also looks the Mut's Nuts

Mr Steven Egerton11th Jan 2019

This guitar is better, in my opinion, than my Gibson SG. The build quality is excellent, time and effort has gone into the manufacture of this instrument. The intonation is good across the fret range (unlike my SG where its only good at 12). The tones are wonderful, positions 2 & 4 are really good clean with a bit of delay.

Great guitar! Pity you can’t lower the bridge pickup any more but it doesn’t cause too much of a problem. Feels amazing!

Trusted Customer24th Sep 2018

I knew this was the one for me before I tried it. Wonderfully built and a fantastic play!
