The Ghost Fret is back, and we couldn’t be more excited.
This time round we have made some improvements, tweaks and minor alterations to the classic. From improved body carving and strap lock placement through to the introduction of Korina wood for the first time ever to the Chapman range.
Of course the Ghost Fret still comes equipped with the spec you would expect from Chapman including stainless steel frets, roasted maple neck, and Hipshot locking tuners.
After extensive testing we settled on a pair of USA Seymour Duncan’s for this beast, a Ceramic “Distortion” in the neck and an ALNICO 5 “Alternative 8” in the bridge bringing a full spectrum of power and articulation.
From smooth blues through to searing Metal, the Chapman Ghost Fret has everything you need and more.
Condition: This is a B-Stock Ghost Fret. The reason this is a b-stock is because of a ding on the back of the guitar (see photos). It comes equipped with our Pro-Tech setup and Chapman’s warranty. Drop Dee Guitars is an authorized dealer of Chapman Guitars.
Pro-Tech Setup: Our Pro-Tech setup makes your guitar ready to rock straight out of the box. Here’s how..
- Make any adjustments so the neck is straight to avoid any fret buzzing and for comfort
- Check the nut and nut slots for any adjustments/filing to prevent any tuning issues, as well as for comfort at the lower frets
- Make any adjustments to the bridge/tremolo system so it’s in the proper position for tuning stability
- Set the action to a height that feels comfortable for each guitar
- Set the intonation so you’re in tune everywhere on the neck
All of these steps will make your brand new guitar feel as comfortable as ever and ready to play straight out of the box!
