Inspired by its highly coveted Pro range counterpart, the ML3 Modern Standard is now available in a stunning, satin finish.
Simple yet elegant, you’ll find it hard to take your eyes away from the lovingly stained Ash top in either Deep Red, Slate Black or Sage Green. But it’s not all just about looks, this stripped back stealth machine is equipped with a Macassar Ebony fretboard andperfectly rolled edges, whilst at the core of this beast a pair of powerful Ceramic Chapman Sonorous Zerø humbuckers willdeliver every blow clearly. If you’re after simplicity of form delivered in an understated-underdog then look no further than the ML3 Modern Standard.
A Macassar Ebony fretboard on a flame maple neck is an irresistible combination for the guitarist considering the ML3 Modern. As well as the C-shaped neck carve and the rolled fretboard edges, there’s a glorious satin finish that makes this guitar smooth to play.
Chapman’s ML3 Modern’s thin lightweight Alder body and satin Ash veneer is an exquisite blend of form and function and is perfect for the cross-genre musician. It’s ergonomically contoured but the shape and build also provides a balanced tonal foundation.
Bristling with a pair of Chapman Sonorous Zero humbucker the tonal breadth of the Chapman ML3 Modern is something to behold.
