About this listing
Excellent Condition and a rare find – with a figured maple topThis really is a brilliant guitar - the quality of finish is excellent, with an awesome tone. It really looks as good as it sounds – circa 2015Being sold to make space for something new.Superbly handcrafted in KoreaThe fretboard has recently been reconditioned with lemon oil and Bon’s Fretboard Butter – improving the appearance and feelD'Addario Half Round semi-flat wound strings have been fitted - 9 to 42 Gauge. Creating an excellent pure sound and unique smooth feel – with greatly reduced finger noise.The string action is low, and the intonation has been precisely set.What they say about this awesome guitar:“Classic S-type body is fashioned from two slabs of solid mahogany, topped with a figured maple veneer, a weight of 9.30lbs is not totally unexpected.”“Besides, the ML-1's heavy set demeanour becomes more of a bonus than a curse when the guitar is hanging from a strap - it's a reassuringly substantial beast. Likewise, the three-piece bolt-on maple neck has a pleasantly chubby feel. 22 extra jumbo frets offer smooth string bending and a buzz-free performance on the ebony fingerboard, while access to the upper frets is unhindered thanks to a well-sculpted neck heel.”“Chappers has chosen to direct-mount his self-designed Guitarnivore humbucker and twin Extreme Victory single coils into conveniently pickup-shaped holes in the guitar's top. This not only looks cool, but fellow advocates such as Eddie Van Halen believe that direct mounting enhances tone.”“Included is a Wilkinson vibrato and Grover machine heads, and the versatility is boosted further without compromising tuning stability.”“Also, the secret here is the push/pull coil-split that doubles as the master tone control.”Overall, a very versatile instrument also with a 5-Way Toggle switch With ROK SAK gig bag
