Product details
Workhorse machine delivering clarity and articulation. At the heart of Chapman guitars has always been a love of dropped or altered tunings, stemming from an appreciation of progressive heavy music and a love of percussive, creative riff writing blended together over the years. When Chapman Guitars designs a guitar, they are not just making a product to sell; they are lovingly creating something that will eventually be played live or used to create music, which has always made Chapman feel a little bit different.
The new Standard series Baritone guitars carry this sentiment as a stripped-back, workhorse machine delivering clarity and articulation through our own Chapman Sonorous Zerø, Alnico 5 Baritone Humbuckers.
A simple and understated satin finish, coupled with beautiful woods like ash, maple, macassar ebony, and bass, allows your playing to do the talking. The stunning rolled edges, TUSQ nut, and 18:1 ratio Chapman locking tuners provide the tuning stability and feel needed in the studio or live.
