🎸 FOR SALE: Chapman ML1 Modern Standard (Slate Black Satin)
The Condition

Officially: Very Good. Realistically: Played and loved.

Full disclosure—there is a little bit of "shining" on the satin finish where a hand and arm rested. I prefer to call this "custom organic micro-relicing." It’s absolute proof that this guitar actually spits fire and wasn't just hung on a wall in a temperature-controlled vault next to a dentist's framed sailboat painting. It has mojo.

The Setup

This beast has been fully and professionally set up. It’s wearing a fresh set of D'Addario XL 10s and the action has been dialed strictly into the Goldilocks Zone. It's not so high that your fingers bleed, and it's not so low that it buzzes like an angry wasp trapped in a tin can. It is juuuuust right.

The Upgrade

The stock tuners have been ripped (carefully) out and a set of premium Gotoh Locking Tuners installed. Why? Because winding strings around a post six times is for peasants, and you have riffs to write. String changes are now faster than a bass player rushing the tempo.

Specs for the Tone Nerds

  • Finish: Slate Black Satin (Pure Batmobile aesthetics)
  • Neck: Macaque-friendly C-shape maple neck with rolled edges (Smooth as butter, fast as lightning)
  • Frets: 24 Jumbo frets (For maximum squealing pinch harmonic clearance)
  • Pickups: Chapman Sonorous Zerø Humbuckers (Ready to push your amp into glorious, high-gain oblivion, but splits nicely for those cleans you'll use exactly twice)
  • Includes a quality padded gig bag.

Thanks for reading this ad instead of doing whatever it is your boss currently thinks you're doing. Please buy this guitar so I can clear up some space, appease my partner, and immediately buy another guitar that I will inevitably sell back to you in three years.
