The last thing you want on tour is a warped neck. This guitar’s roasted maple C-shaped neck is far less vulnerable to warping in changeable climates, making it easy to maintain and tune on your travels. The rolled edge Macassar Ebony fretboard is pretty sexy too.
PREMIUM BODY CONSTRUCTION
We use Alder wood for guitar bodies, because it is a light and stable wood, resilient for travelling and beautiful to play. The flamed maple veneer on this guitar is kick-ass and concert ready and these coupled with the roasted maple neck provides a solid tonal foundation.
V2 CHAPMAN HENCHMAN PICKUPS
