Causing quite a stir in the industry upon their release, Chapman Guitars are some of the most talked about models in the world right now, particularly the fantastic Chapman Standard ML1 V2. As far as riff ready, affordable axes go, this one is tough to beat and with some really nice features, along with a great overall vibe, we've been absolutely loving the ML1.

So, we decided to go all out and have Rob Chapman himself drop by to show us how it's meant to sound! Covering a whole lot of ground, this guitar uses specially voiced Chapman Sonorous Zer0 humbuckers which have a pretty hot output and are capable of some seriously chunky tones. However, with a tone knob which features a push/pull coil split, you can also tap into much lighter, more janglier sounds, making the ML1 an awesome all-rounder. Also sporting a seriously cool looking a reverse-headstock and a stunning flamed maple veneer on its top, the Chapman ML1 looks every bit as good as it sounds and is very impressive for its reasonable price!
Don't take our word for it though, have a listen to Chappers' ML1 Standard V2 demo for yourself and let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
