I just ordered one of these from Anderson’s this morning. I’ve never been more excited for a guitar purchase in my life. It’s my first guitar over 1k that I’ve bought myself so I have high hopes. And I got it in red cause it’s my absolute favorite color. Can’t wait guys. Thank you so much for making all of these videos with the level of detail you always do. It made the decision to buy easier than ever. Love Chapman and Andertons Cheers from the US 🤘🏽
What do u think of it bro ?? l’ve Heard that have had loads of quality control issues ?? Hope that’s not the case for u man. Hope it’s playing good if not try these Guthrieguitars.com Hand made USA , hand wound pick ups , dude makes everything from scratch from neck, to the body , to pickups. Uses bad ass hard ware too. Gotoh and Wilkinson hard ware. Check em
Omg I can't wait to get mine! I already orderd one and it should arrive in a bit more than a week! I'm so excited you guys have no idea. Keep on rocking \m/
Brandon Bignall Do you have the new 2017 model? I'm thinking of getting one, but I'd like to get some opinions on the instrument before I take the risk of pre-ordering one. Any of your thoughts would be appreciated!
Yes it's the 2017 ML1 pro in black. I pre-ordered one from Anderton's and I got it in 3 days, beautifully set up. It has high output pickups but you can coil tap it and it sounds Strat like. The neck is modern C profile, quite slim but not too much and not to wide. The open blocking tuners are great and the finish on my guitar is perfect. I have absolutely nothing bad to say after nearly 2 months of playing it. It's really great (and I don't work for Chapman ha ha. You can buy it with your eyes closed.
I just got one a few days ago. Gorgeous guitar! Sustain for days, with a rich, and lively sound. The neck is splendid! I do love the dusk color, so am debating if I should add the Ghost Fret as well.
How is it after a few months? I'm thinking of getting one with the black finish, now that they are available at guitar center. I can't decide between a schecter hellraiser hybrid or one of these, I'm mostly riding on how thin and comfortable the neck is (I have small hands) and how good the pickups are. Would you recommend for solos and thrash metal?
Please!!! Upload the oder Videos that you show us in your official instagram account!!! I can't wait for the rest!! Once I worked 3 months and got the money I' ll surly buy one of those pro models for the university
I was looking at these on Riff City's site. They sold out of them almost instantly though. That seems like a good problem for a guitar company to have. lol
Hey Rob, when are you guys going to show the east coast of the U.S. some love, and come visit? There are plenty of really cool guitar shops in NYC. Plus great coffee, that I'm sure the Monkeylord would approve of.
Robstafarian The Chapman webpage has non-locking:) So it make me curious if they changed it around. If I don't get a reply I'll just ask at riff city the next time I go. (Though I'm scared to go, I always end up buying something. Three guitars and an amp thus far:))
haha! I had to look at it again to recall. I was counting "Chapman" printed twice on the headstock (Rob Chapman / Chapman guitars). I said "5 places" when I should have said four places, listed five times. A bit of a "Where's Waldo" piece.
Chapman Guitars thanks! I watch all Robs vids and anything else that has to do with the Chapman crew. I hope you guys will be doing something in California soon.
I only recognize Bea for his hands and playing style. Congrats Bea, you look so different and healthier!
Nice solo, Rabea.
The sun finish, in a 7 strings version, would be an insta-buy for me.
yes
This guitar is so light compared to the old ML-1. Also the neck through body is insane.

Man Bea has lost so much weight I only identified him by his wrist bracelets!
Sam Anderson and his kick ass playing!🤘
And kraken tat
I was lucky to get one of these in Lunar when the first preorder run came out, absolutely monstrous.
Proud to be of the Chapman family....
That guitar in that exact color is on my wishlist.
Just noticed this comment! SZ never knew you were a guitar player?!
Chapman guitars are awesome, I can see myself owning several
Just got one of these for Christmas, it is everything I hoped for and more! Beautiful, well-crafted guitar.
can you get the strings really low? thanks
really admire and love every chapman guitar. the design is just really suit my taste.
Omg I can't wait to get mine! I already orderd one and it should arrive in a bit more than a week! I'm so excited you guys have no idea. Keep on rocking \m/
How is it? How comfortable is it and would you recommend for solos and thrash metal?
Stainless steel frets!!! Love them!!!
the back of that thing looks just as good as the front! I would love to try one of these out.
I have one of these in black and it looks, sounds and plays great.

Brandon Bignall Thanks for your feedback! I'm definitely gonna have to give it a shot, and the black finish is really clean
Pleasure
This guitar, this finish is gonna be my choice of the pro range. Gunna get me a fleet of ml1s

That was fantastic. Do more of these =)
chapman guitars has matured quite nicely compared to its first series of guitars.
Rabea is a hell of a player!
Ordered the satin sun from Andertons, delivery tomorrow :) cant wait!
Just ordered one of these...... can't wait!
Congrats! Let us know how you get on :)
Chapman Guitars I shall do. I'm so excited I am at the point of dreaming about it!

I know its a guitar showcase video but the tune is sick!
With a TOM bridge and Rob Scallion style head stock I’d be sold.
Please make some models with shiny finishes and a FR, pleaaase.
Banging track!!! Daaaamn
you should make this in blue as well!
It's about time! 😁
If these had a trem it would be an instant buy for me
I have the exact same one and its great !!
Hi! When are we going to have more information about those pups?
Any one know the run he plays at 0:45 - 0:49? I really want to incorporate something like this in my playing
Bring this out in dusk!
Thank you for this! I'm excited to hear the others!
It is. So. Pretty!

Wow i wish i have this. Cant afford it. Have to play with Cort x1. :(
I really need to come up and try these out. Tempted by a Ghost Fret Pro. Curious, how do the necks feel compared to a standard strat?
Looks like someone built my dream guitar. Too bad I can't afford it right now... :-(
It would be awesome to see one of these in unicorn burst \m/
I'm saving! :)
You and me both. :)
Put a floyd in this and I would buy it the next day :P
Dimitris Tsarou there’s already the norseman so...
Still any chance of buying Chapman pickups?
how do you paint a guitar but still have the wood grain showing?
Is it bad that I knew Rabea from the thumbnail picture with his hands?
This in lunar.. or an ML3 Bea in smoke... I am conflicted on another level 😣
Benzenicide but why? I see great things for both and I am really jusg stumped
Can you tell us the info of your gear besides the guitar? :)
How can I raise the pickups? I tried the screws but the PU didnt move.
Is this some random soloing or is it actually from a song? This just struck so hard in my mind that i need to know.

Backing track please!

Are those locking tuners? Because I like looking tuners:) I thought they had the "normal" ones. At least it's an easy upgrade :)
+John Gustafsson 0:33 Those are locking tuners.

Can someone explain me why the lunar version is like 100 punds more expensive
Nobody knows?
I'm in the Louisville Kentucky area where tf do I get one of these?
Jacob Goodman In the US..... riff city guitars I believe :)
+Jacob Goodman Check www.chapmanguitars.co.uk/retailers/
Jacob Goodman there's a retailer in Nashville
ML1 Pro or ML3 Pro?
thats the chappers hand?
Rabea's.
looking good
I hate to say this but can someone tab this out?
how much?
"Chapman" is listed on the guitar in 5 places. I guess there'll be no mistaking it for something else.
haha! I had to look at it again to recall. I was counting "Chapman" printed twice on the headstock (Rob Chapman / Chapman guitars). I said "5 places" when I should have said four places, listed five times. A bit of a "Where's Waldo" piece.
rodriguez256 2 in the front of the headstock, one at the back of it, 1 on each pickup
Fuckin' hell, Rabea. Man.
Locking or normal tuners... Decide plz
+Harris Kanellopoulos All production ML1 Pro Moderns come with locking tuners, along with most of the Pro series :)
Yes!!!!
You need to find an Argentinian dealer to sell those here D:
I want one, i can't buy it from here D:
+Bruno Romagnoli They have just arrived at Kairon Music in Buenos Aires! Check out www.kaironmusic.com.ar 😊
Rabea rips so fucking hard! Haha
Rabea rules
Can someone tell me why the fuck these guitars costs as much as a Gibson SG Standard or an American Strat?!!
