Derringers Music is pleased to present this Chapman ML3 Standard Traditional Electric Guitar in Tobacco Ash Finish.
Chapman's take on the classic T-style reaches new heights with this iteration of the ML3 Traditional! Featuring Chapman's "Angry Mule" P90 in the neck and a "Vintage Tone" single-coil in the bridge — the ML3 Traditional offers fat yet versatile T-type tones with plenty of iconic "spank".
Chapman’s ML3 Traditional boasts a thin lightweight Mahogany body that serves as a superbly balanced tonal foundation for its versatile pickup selection. Whether you choose the sleek gloss black or the veneer gloss Tobacco Ash top, both have ergonomically contoured lower horn and neck transition, this instrument exerts a truly high-end aesthetic.
A maple fretboard on a maple neck, is an irresistible combination for the guitarist considering the ML3 Traditional. As well as the C-shaped neck carve and the rolled fretboard edges, there’s a glorious satin finish that makes this guitar smooth to play.
As part of Chapman's accessible Standard Series, the ML3 Traditional provides premium performance at an affordable price-point.
