Description

This new line also boasts a refined and redesigned bolt on joint, offering stability and superior upper fret access. At the heart of the ML3 Pro X lies a “triple threat” of Seymour Duncan American pickups, all working together to give you a suite of classic, vintage tones.

Key Features

Mahogany Body — Provides a deep and sustain-rich sound, covered in a gorgeous finish for a premium look.
Roasted Maple Neck — "Roasting" is a modern guitar wood treating process whereby moisture is removed from a timber to reduce its weight and increase rigidity. This makes the neck far less vulnerable to warping over time, and ensures incredible tuning stability.
Rolled-Edge Macassar Ebony Fingerboard — A luxurious and silky material with a stunning grain; enhanced with rolled edges for a smooth, played-in feel.
22 Jumbo Stainless Steel Frets — Hard-wearing and corrosion-resistant, with their wide/tall "jumbo" design offering maximum control under the fingers for effortless vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends.
Seymour Duncan Pickups — Bristling with a Seymour Duncan 59 Custom Trembucker Humbucker in the bridge and stacked Strat Plus single-coils in the middle/neck positions, the tonal breadth of the Chapman ML3 Pro X is something to behold!
Wilkinson 2-Point Tremolo — This famously-stable vibrato unit allows for expressive dives and warbles, whenever inspiration strikes!
Hipshot Grip-Lock Tuners — Ingenious locking mechanism makes restringing easier and means less string winds are required around the tuning posts; resulting in better tuning stability.

More info about this Product

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.
