Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Finished in Deep Red Satin, the ML2 is Chapman’s stripped-back, single-cutaway electric with a fixed string-through hardtail bridge. A satin maple set neck with volute meets a Macassar ebony fingerboard with rolled edges, while the mahogany body is topped with satin ash veneer. Two Chapman Stentorian Zerø Alnico 5 humbuckers run through a 3-way selector, separate volume controls and a push-pull master tone control. It suits players who want a 24-fret, right-handed 6-string layout with individual pickup-level control rather than a tremolo bridge.
Strong match
