Much like the Standard Scale and Baritone models, Chapman Guitars approached the ML1-7 Pro from the ground up. Their main goal was to develop a more ergonomic and refined design. This was achieved partly through customer feedback and requests, in combination with tweaks and modifications from Chapman's own R&D team.

More comfortable to play than ever, the new ML1-7 Pro Modern features a fully upgraded body contour and carved top with more access to the upper frets, a 28" scale length, and a stunning modern styling. With an all-new, exclusive, carved/four bolt construction with carbon reinforced rods for superior stability, giving the performance and access of a set neck, with the convenience of a bolt on!

With premium specifications, like Stainless steel frets, USA Seymour Duncan Pegasus/Sentient Humbuckers, and Hipshot machine heads, this modern riff machine is the tool to get the job done in style.

ROASTED MAPLE NECK - Chapman's signature C-shaped neck profile in combination with rolled Macassar Ebony fretboard edges and a satin finish gives this guitar an unmistakable style and excellent playability. The Roasted Maple neck makes the guitar less susceptible to warping in changing environmental conditions, and keep it in fantastic condition for longer.

PREMIUM BODY CONSTRUCTION - The Chapman ML1-7 Pro Modern features a lightweight Basswood body which provides an astonishingly neutral tonal foundation for it's flexible pickup selection, and the ergonomically carved lower horn enables unrestricted access to even the highest frets.

SEYMOUR DUNCAN PICKUPS - Great pickups guarantee amazing sound. The tonal range of the Chapman ML1-7 Pro Modern is rich and articulate, and the Seymour Duncan Pegasus/Sentient humbucking pickup compliment make this guitar ideal for any genre.
