Chapman

Description

Since its founding, almost a decade ago, Chapman Guitars' core belief has been that, by listening to their customers and working with them through a system of open collaboration, they could make the instruments guitarists wanted to play, with amazing tone, playability and overall quality far above the norm. The result has been a rousing success, with increasing numbers of guitarists playing Chapman live and in the studio.

For those guitarists who want something special — individually hand-built, carefully crafted instruments made to exceptional standards, Chapman developed the British Standard Series of instruments, built in very limited numbers by a small team of talented, experienced luthiers in a small shop where each guitar can receive personal attention, their UK based shop is committed to building instruments that exceed even the highest expectations.

An unabashed rocker, the Ghost Fret British Standard simply takes no prisoners. From the classic "Z" body shape loaded with custom-wound humbuckers to the rock-solid Hipshot hardtail bridge and locking tuners, this guitar screams aggression. A large-radius, rolled-edge ebony fingerboard on a lively roasted maple neck makes it easy to break out your speediest riffs and most emphatic power chords. As always, the Chapman, the finishes are stunning and the tone and playability is superb.
