    I'm glad there's a big name guitar brand out there which employs Indian luthiere and openly talks about it. The company Chapman is referring to is most likely HMI, or Harmony Musical Instruments in Chennai, India. Trev Wilkinson sold T-style vintage spec kit guitars made there and they previously did work for Fender & Jackson. It's a pity that Indians can't buy guitars from HMI. They're export only and extremely media shy. The last time they sold Indian guitars to Indians was in the early 2000s, under their in-house Tansen brand. By the time I'd saved up enough money for one, they were gone from the market!

      Problem is you have to get big names to play them, otherwise fans of those players are less likely to buy into the brand, and most pros are going to go for brands that are established. I have a Godin, and it's a great guitar, but can't comment on Chapman.

      First time I've ever heard this, I've never played a Chapman that wasn't nearly perfect. I bought my first Chapman as a blind risk because you can't find them in stores in America but it was $650 I am very glad I dropped. I bought one of his tele style models and it was better than any Mexican made tele I've ever played.

    • @shorerocks
      @shorerocks 3 місяці тому +1

      I got a ML1-Pro when it came out, and had it with the luthier 2 times to "righten" it. It was wired wrong. The nut had to be worked on (no way was it staying in tune). Compared to other guitars in the same price segment (my Charvels for example), this guitar was a class worse in overall quality. But it has Seymour Duncans, and sound great. So, good enough for studio recordings, but I would never go on stage with it.

      @@TheGuitarGeek Prefacing this with a disclaimer because it's really hard to get inflection from text online (one of the reasons I think so many people end up arguing), and I'm someone who loves your channel, but I'm curious what your take is on that Chapman drama if you're speaking out against it. Because you say not to repeat inaccurate things you read online, but the whole business with his fans raging and doxxing and his dealings with Riff City Guitars seem pretty well documented and definitely don't paint him in a favorable light. There's other stuff that's way less substantiated, so I take that with a grain of salt or two, but neither of those things mentioned above are great impressions...
      Not being a smartass or anything - I'm always open to being wrong and learning something - just genuinely curious if you have some info or insight that we don't, cause as someone who followed Chapman from the bedroom days when everything was done via poll as a tiny company, I'd love to have something that shows he's less like the perception leads us to believe.
