Dude thank you so much for the review and kind words. I’m really glad you like the guitar. Looking forward to seeing you’re beautiful face (and beard) at NAMM!!
To anybody that’s got their hands on one of these or the Baritone, I hugely appreciate it! 👍
BEARD
Rabea Massaad much love to you man, picking one up next week.
Digging this ML3 Rabea, back in Dallas, time to pick one of these bad boys up myself! :) Great review Ryan!
holy shit you're real!
Rabea Massaad your*
The bridge pickup doesn't only sound good, but it also looks fucking badass
Yeah, I love my Lundgrens but Bare Knuckle are probably the most awesome looking pickups out there at the moment.
Richard Harrold Rich Man.... Yeah it looks a lot like one, but if I wanted to get one in the guitar the price would be closer to 1600.... i chose the covers specifically because I use BKP’s in my protos and loved the custom look. But tonally I did spec it to be less output and slightly warmer like an HFS.
It’s not really a knock off as much as it’s inspired by.
*Like anything Rabea related*
Rabea kicks ass!!
I personally own the ML3 BEA and man it is just amazing. I also have the trem blocked. The versatility of this guitar is great and it feels fantastic to play. I can definitely vouch for everything said in the video. Also the guitar looks beautiful.
I've been watching old Fluff videos today waiting for new material.
...This is my life....
Ryan Bruce - Dude since you got the Helix, you are nailing the best guitar tones Ive ever heard you have.
Nicely done man.
The saturation etc on this vid sounds great.
Got my hands on the bea baritone the other day, and it’s just glorious
Luka Cuturic oops, didn’t spot that ha ha
The clean tones on that neck pickup are absolutely amazing. This thing sounds like it really can go from blues to metal in a split second. Right when I thought I had enough guitars....
Tried this guitar a few days ago not huge on the tele shape but I love Rabea.I was blown away I fell In love with this guitar now I gotta eat ramen for a month so I can buy one.
Love the wood choices, alder, maple and padouk, can't go wrong with that.
The one time you try to dial it down, and turns out it's one of your finest tunes on the channel till date. Also, love bea and everything he does. That guitar is a beast.
I have this exact same model and it's ridiculously good.
I believe the neck wood is pronounced PADOUUUUUKEN
dimebagdemmel KO! PERFECT!
Nah, it's definitely padjentouken
Hahahaha! Great :)
this guitar looks and sounds fantastic, bet it feels the same way, amazing job from Chapman Guitars.
after watching this for the 20th time, I've decided this will be my next guitar. I heard Chapman guitars arrives here by July. I turn 30 in 3 weeks so hopefully Chapman guitars lands in my city soon. Thank you for the great review Mr. Bruce
I am amazed at the quality of your music. Nicely done.
Everything in this video is so pefect. Loved the camera angles and the tune.
You know fluff? There is no other channel where i can relax as much as here.cool review!
Just got one the other day! The more I play it, the more I love it! Great Guitar!
Hey does it have a fully floating trem
Nice! I'm planning to get one for my 40th in 2019! I hope this model is available till then. 😬
Now you need the bari
Studio Tour 2018??
Loving the updated video production quality! Im proud of you son.
Love the new studio! Hopefully a tour video at some point.
Man I'm so excited for the lefty line!!!!
I retract my last statement this video was actually pretty good. The last few have been a bit watered down since basically we only get FAQ mondays lately but this one was good. It'd be nice if you could do some affordable mid range equipment instead of all the stuff that's $1000+ though
Rabea seems like a humble gentleman and great player.
Nice vibe on the song and great video production. Those BEA guitars are awesome!
Guitar sounds great. Im a bass player and dont gain a whole lot from the majority of your videos. I admittedly watch your videos mostly to hear your riffage. Love your style, really speaks to me, and this video was no different.
That is a serious bit of kit! I have been looking at the ML3 Traditional as my next guitar (Celebrate (!?) my 40th). Seem to have a great quality for the cost. Cracking tune as well!
your mixes have gotten so much better brother
I got a feeling Bea would sound good on my plywood Hondo ZX-1. Wouldn't mind owning a Chapman. Thanks for turning me on to this cool gear.
I played one of these at a guitar center in Portland a couple weeks ago. It was high up on the wall. It played nice and I liked it, but it was insanely heavy (like a slab of slate), the bridge pickup was flopping around, and it was way over priced for a Korean made guitar. Something like $1,399usd. To me it felt like a $600-$700 guitar. I am a fan of Rebea. Love his music and playing style. A true talent.
Need a new intro video to go with the new place! Love the channel! Favorite place to be on Mondays! Keep up the great work!
One of your best tones.And tracks!keep going!!!?Make this a nice prog Rock track!
Been looking forward to this. I have this guitar. Love it.
Seems like Chapman did the smartest thing doing all the social media and aligning with big youtubers... brand recognition, now the guitars hold the value too.
if there were ever a demo you reupload in a full song? please let it be this one. please.
Always loved Chapman guitars, my friend recently purchased one, imma have to get my own soon!! Great vid Fluff! 🤘
Great sounding guitar. Looks good too. But that first song you played.....instantly my favorite song you've done! Nice playthrough too. Chapman has definitely gotten my attention. I've only seen or heard good things about theyre guitars.
My Bea is arriving today! YAY!!!!!!!
I LOVE THAT ONE!
I think I might treat myself to this for my birthday in 5 weeks.
I think we are witnessing the beginnings of jazz fusion fluff during the play through. Funk, country. Fluff you tease
The cleans sound very good. I like this guitar. Nice video demo, Ryan.
Gorgeous guitar
your lightning setup is neat
Such a cool tune to demo the guitar, it looks great and has the sound to match.
Nice camera movement, by the way, really clean work.
Really dig the tune on this one. Gave me a real ghost vibe.
Probably the coolest chapman model. Getting a little GAS now.
Although I will admit that price is a little steep. I could get a Schecter KM-7 guitar, or a spend a little more for something like an ESP E-II or an Ibanez Prestige. Hell, at that price I could get a Balaguer with modest specs.
Damn, dude. Dirty Diana vibe from that riff! Heck yeah!
How did you lock the bridge? I know you can lock it by adding a tremelno but you made it sound like you locked it without adding anything. Was this the case?
FINALLY! A Chapman on RBandG
I actually really like the first tune - sounds like "if Rage Against the Machine and Deftones had a baby". TBH this Rectifier sound makes me wanna try the Helix - I only tried a trial version but the default IRs killed it for me, you got a really nice Mesa out of it.
Love you Fluff.
The Guitar Sounds SICK
You should have played a bit of Aeromancy by Dorje for the demo but on an another note it sounds awesome! 👍🏻
I totally agree with everything you said in this review Fluff except for one thing... "at a really decent price point." It's tough for me to justify spending $1,250 for a guitar produced at WMI, especially without premium pickups. How is Holcomb's PRS SE only $900 with his Duncan pups? It's much cheaper to upgrade tuners than pickups. Maybe it's the Padauk neck that demands the hike in the price... I don't know. But if it was priced like Holcomb's SE, I'd probably buy Bea's guitar. He's one of my favorite players! There's too much competition with great American guitars (especially in the used market) at the $1200/$1300 price point.
I heard that I know something bout you riff diggin it, I own the ML3-RC and I really want Bea's signature
Love the new room!
Beautiful guitar, enjoyed the riffs in this video.
Hope you'll do more groovy demos in the future.
Sweet guitar Fluff! Now show us the Dunable Yeti Sasha made for u please. There are no good in depth reviews of a Dunable Yeti that I’ve seen. Would love to hear your thoughts and tones!!!!
ahhh... that intro tone is the FUNK.
I just got it and its absolutely gourgeous and sounds very cool. My question is, is there a good set of pick ups replacement for this guitar? Or would you just keep it the wait it is?
I've been wondering about this as well. Is the slot strat sized or tele sized. I'd hate to have to take a chisel to the guitar if I wanted to put something like Dimarzio pickups in them for example.
Bea makes me feel groovy too. I kind of love the guy.
Sick riff
Dude, the finish is called beersmoke... that should make you want one by itself lol... awesome axe... hopefully my local guitar center gets one soon so I can try and buy...
Awesome guitar! The song sounded like a mixture of rage against the machine and a metalcore band like killswitch or even your own. Great work
That jingle is fucking great, reminds me of what Metroid metal sounds like without so much gain and gate.
Nice - Love this guitar. Thanks for the bad ass demo.
Love the new room dude
Well balanced guitar imo, and the warpig clone has a nice mid range bite,
Nice!
i really dug the tune you were playing on that bea model! very Tool sounding prog rock
edit: First Chapman guitar that i loved the sound of the pickups. The others sounded a bit cheaper and tin-y, but these are glorious!
Welcome back Fluff.
Glad to see you back :)
This vs Balaguer Thicket BB??? Any comments seeing that you’ve now demoed both on your channel!
That would be a great comparison
Jeremy Tan see no answer.
SICK tune Fluff!! Awesome review!
Curious if you still have this axe? I just dug mine back out. I have the same model you have. Only mods I did to mine when I first got it was POTS upgrade. I loved the chapman pickups and kept them in there. Curious if you still have and play this axe. Cheers, Scott
Never thought I’d say it but the helix sounds deadly
I love you, man. Can't wait to converse sometime!! Keep it all up man, you're am OG.
nice guitar again, the bridge pick-up looks awesome. On a LP?
Hey Fluff, quick question, where do you get those sick backing tracks when riffing out?
Ryan Bruce awesome! Good to know. Keep up the vids Fluff. You rock!
Please do a video on how to lock down a tremolo on a guitar with a floating bridge.. I've been dying to do it myself on my Damien FR6 but I lack the proper knowledge on how to do it. Thanks in advance.
that guitar sounds really nice...
great sounding guitar and a great composition man!
Locking the bridge - did you do anything else besides tightening the springs underneath? I'm always curious about the best strategies for locking floating bridges.
i love this guitar an i like your new room bro
shubhaang manjhi thanks
Studio tour vid coming soon?
just ordered mine!
Love this guitar. Big fan of yours and Rabea. Wish I got $1200 guitars in the mail.
Hey you kept Pinky in frame. Awesome. Nice digs bro,,,, Tour?.
When bea beets you in the riff war so you use his signature to sound better lol
Hows the bridge pick up sound especially in lower tunings - cause i am talking about baritone model with 28 inch scale , like gis or even fis, like clarity and definition, which is very need in those kind of tunings and i dont have any experience with their pick ups, maybe they sould put some bare knuckles or fishman there, whats ur opinion on them? . It has 28 inch scale , one thing that i dont know about is that pick up there. And why they make bolt on construction, neck thru would be better in my opinion
I have this baby myself and also don't like the trem. How far did you set the distance between strings and pickups after screwing down the trem?
I have locked mine down as well. Floating trems!!!!!!
You mentioned you locked off the tremelo, how did you do this? I'v looked online and can't find anything about how to do it to this bridge. I'm wanting to do the same as you have done. Much appreciated.
They make tremolo blocks. Tremel-no makes one. Just google.
I think Chapman went too high with the price point for these guitars. $1250 for a Korean made Chapman is tough to swallow. Maybe for the PRS stuff, but you can get an American PRS Vela for the same price. American Strat or Tele and Gibson Studio and Tributes all in the same range. You can get Ibanez Prestige models for a just a little bit more and those are made in Japan (and, IMO as good as money can buy). Those ALL have better resale too. Maybe next year.
If you think Koreans don't know how to make a proper guitar... I'm not sure what to tell you. Overseas prices are rising for many reasons but the quality is there. Just wait until all -$1000 are made in Africa.
And I'm sure Padauk is harder to source than the other woods used by chapman. I've heard great things about the build quality and the resources are getting much better.
Cabby Cabby I didn’t say that at all. In fact I said PRS guitars are a better option. Made in Korea. I said $1250 is a lot for a Korean. I own a Ghost Fret, $999, a price I could get down on.
They are made in the same shop. Under the same roof as PRS SE. Schecter. LTD. And many more that say MADE IN KOREA (South Korea). Agreed on the over $1000 price. I have SEs and American. Chapman 7 string, is a solid guitar.
Cabby Cabby He's right, the Ibanez Prestige is much higher quality.
Do you think there will be a difference in quality between the Chapman / Chapman and the Guitar Center/ Chapman?
The only signature guitar that is named after a guitar Shop worker but he can play.
