Chapman ML3 Pro Modern Electric Guitar (0074)

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.

Condition: This is a B-Stock ML3 Pro Modern. The reason this is a b-stock is because of a minor ding that was touched on the bottom of the body of the guitar (see photos). It comes equipped with our Pro-Tech setup and Chapman’s warranty (does not include finish issues). 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!
