A perfect blend of maple and mahogany. The ML1 Modern is the answer to your every day, multi-genre requirements. Design features such as a lightweight mahogany body, an upper access spoon cut and updated specially-voiced Chapman Sonorous Zerø pickups really show an attention to detail worthy of even the most discerning of players.

While the mahogany provides you with uncompromising sustain and rich lows, the flamed maple ensures excellent clarity in the mid-range and upper register.
For the neck, Chapman has opted for smooth satin-finished maple with a bolt-on configuration featuring a velute. This reinforcement, combined with a dual-action truss rod, means sturdy tuning stability and excellent proficiency with drop-tuning. The silky smooth satin finish and familiar C-shaped neck means that you'll feel right at home - whatever your style!
Top it off with a Graph Tech Tusq XL nut and alluring black hardware across the board, and you've struck the perfect balance between versatility and attitude.
Chapman have loaded the ML1 Modern with two Sonorous Zero humbuckers; power, clarity and punchy mids perfectly complement the Mahogany and Maple construction. Expect soaring sustain and a crystal-clear top-end, clean or distorted.
A 3-way blade pickup switch and a push-pull coil-tap vastly expands your tonal palette. What first appears to be a simple HH configuration suddenly becomes a hugely versatile instrument that'll efficiently handle whatever you throw at it.
