ML3 Pro Modern
Description
The ML3 Pro Modern has always been know for its thick, powerful tone and lightning fast playability, but now we have juiced up this work-horse with new materials, tech and exciting spec. Equipped with a pair of hand built Seymour Duncan Humbuckers, an Alnico 5 loaded Sentient which delivers a very articulate vintage output pickup with great dynamic response and a Pegasus which gives a wide harmonic range and a delivers a warm, balanced, responsive, and lush tone for progressive metal, you’ll have a hard job putting it down. The powerful combination of baked maple and Basswood together with Stainless Steel frets all wrapped up in a stunning satin metallic finish will give you everything you need to dominate the stage.
Features
Roasted Maple Neck
The ergonomic design of this guitar makes it a pleasure to play, with its trusted-as-comfortable C-shaped neck carve and rolled fretboard edges. A smooth satin finish enhances the neck’s playability even further, and offers an ultra-fast surface for shredding. The Roasted Maple neck also reduces the guitar’s vulnerability to warping, which makes it easier to maintain.
Premium Body Construction
Chapman’s ML3 Pro Modern has a lightweight Basswood body surrounding our Roasted Maple set-through neck construction. This tactile wood has been the preferred material for artisan wood carvers for years as it’s beautiful and easy to shape and is perfect for the musician looking for an instrument with a high-end aesthetic.
Seymour Duncan Pickups
Here at Chapman Towers we want top notch metalwork in our guitars. The ML3 Pro Modern has a Seymour Duncan Pegasus humbucker in the bridge and a Seymour Duncan Sentient in the neck position with 5-way switching options, which offers you a wide tonal breadth in a beautiful easy-to-handle guitar.
