ML1 Baritone Pro Modern
Description
The Baritone has always been a fundamental part of our line up and is now available in the all-new ML1 Pro Modern.
Like the standard scale ML1 Pro Modern, we’ve approached this Baritone from the ground up. Our primary objective was to fully realise a more ergonomic and refined design. We achieved this in part through the assimilation of requests from the public, alongside tweaks and modifications from Chapmans own hard-working R&D team.
Featuring a fully upgraded body contour and carved top, the new Pro Baritone is more comfortable to play than ever, with increased upper fret access, a 28-inch scale length, and a stunning contemporary look. It features an all new, proprietary, carved/four bolt construction utilising carbon reinforced rods for ultimate stability. The neck has the feel and access of a set through, but with the practicality of a bolt on!
Action packed full of spec like Stainless steel frets, USA Seymour Duncan Pegasus/Sentient Humbuckers and Hipshot tuners, this modern rock machine is the tool you need for the job.
Features
Roasted Maple Neck
We know the importance of a good neck profile, so we’ve ensured that the ML1 Pro Modern gives good neck. Our signature C-shaped neck carve combined with rolled Roasted Maple fretboard edges and a satin finish make this guitar playable whilst also looking the business. As the Roasted Maple neck makes the guitar less vulnerable to warping in changeable environmental conditions, your guitar will stay in great condition for longer.
