Chapman ML1 Baritone Pro Modern Electric Guitar (0031)-Liquid Teal Metallic Satin

The Baritone has always been a fundamental part of our line up and is now available in the all-new ML1 Pro Modern.

Like the standard scale ML1 Pro Modern, we’ve approached this Baritone from the ground up. Our primary objective was to fully realise a more ergonomic and refined design. We achieved this in part through the assimilation of requests from the public, alongside tweaks and modifications from Chapmans own hard-working R&D team.

Featuring a fully upgraded body contour and carved top, the new Pro Baritone is more comfortable to play than ever, with increased upper fret access, a 28-inch scale length, and a stunning contemporary look. It features an all new, proprietary, carved/four bolt construction utilising carbon reinforced rods for ultimate stability. The neck has the feel and access of a set through, but with the practicality of a bolt on!

Action packed full of spec like Stainless steel frets, USA Seymour Duncan Pegasus/Sentient Humbuckers and Hipshot tuners, this modern rock machine is the tool you need for the job.

Condition: This is a B-Stock ML1 Baritone Pro Modern. The reason this is a b-stock is because of a couple tiny dings on the side of the guitar (see photos). It comes equipped with our Pro-Tech setup and Chapman’s warranty (warranty does not cover the side dings). 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!
