Chapman ML2 Pro Electric Guitar

The year is 2061, you jump down from your hover bed, another hard day working at the hydro plant ahead of you... stopping for a caffeinated dark beverage you catch a glance of her against the wall. You pause for a second, noticing the beautiful contours and luminescent inlays gently glowing... work can wait another day. Gently you pluck her from the anti-gravity stand, this vintage beauty is still a classic and always has been. Although four decades old now, the stainless steel frets haven’t tarnished at all, the bodies taken a few hits over the years, but the neck still feels creamy smooth. “Siri activate amp mode”, you hit that first chord and your room speakers chime to life, driven by that powerful Seymour Duncan Pegasus and Sentient tone that brings you home. “Man, they don’t make them like this anymore“, you reflect as you take another sip from your coffee simulator, so glad you purchased a Chapman ML2 Pro back in the 20s.

Condition: This is a brand new ML2 Pro. We have multiple in stock so you may not receive the exact same guitar in the photos. The finishes are similar, but there are some variations in the Flame Top. 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!
