Chapman Scout Legacy S-Style Hard Tail Guitar w/ Bag – Blood Moon

Brand New w/ Warranty. We are an authorized Chapman Dealer.

We are excited to welcome Chapman Guitars to Guitars To Be Played! Since its small initial run of the ML-1 in 2010, Chapman has been a force in the guitar market. Known for pushing the limits and incorporating high-end options and upgrades on guitars competitively priceed, Chapman has retooled and revamped their offerings for 2026 and beyond!

From Chapman: We've always been driven by one simple idea... Our guitars are designed around the player. In 2026 we have a renewed focus on the needs of today's working musicians. From the big changes to the small tweaks, every design choice in our new lineup is shaped by feedback from guitarists who put their instruments to test night after night.

Built for performance, shaped by experience, and crafted for musicians everywhere.

Introducing the New Chapman Scout Legacy

The silhouette is familiar, but the Scout Legacy takes that shape into new territory with a focus on what today’s guitarist actually needs.

Equipped with all the new features designed for live players, paired with dual humbuckers, and with a neck shaped to balance modern comfort with classic substance. It’s made for guitarists who need a tool that stays with them, reacts instantly, and encourages more from every note.

 

ALL ROSEWOOD NECK

The Scout Legacy’s Rosewood neck and fingerboard create an exceptional playing feel, making each note resonate with warmth and clarity. With a 25.5” scale length and 22 jumbo stainless steel frets, this guitar is designed for precision and versatility.

PREMIUM CONSTRUCTION

Crafted from Alder with a Flame Maple top, the Law Maker Legacy is a visual and auditory delight. The gloss finish accentuates the wood’s natural beauty. Ergonomically contoured for maximum comfort and playability.

 

CHAPMAN PICKUPS

Made in partnership with Wilkinson, a ceramic Chapman Redline Special bridge humbucker delivers aggressive, punchy tones, while a Chapman GT neck humbucker with Alnico V magnets provides a warm, expressive voice.

How Does It Play

We give a thorough setup to every instrument that comes through our shop. From truss rod to nut slots, pickup heights to intonation, you can rest assured we have this one dialed in. We also do a thorough inspection and check of all electronics and hardware to make sure nothing slips by!
