The Legendary Chapman Guitars ‘MonkeyLord’ CGML1
Believed to be the world’s first online, collaboratively designed guitar, the Chapman CGML1 is the brainchild of YouTube’s guitar guru, Rob ‘MonkeyLord’ Chapman.
The CGML1 started out as an invitation to members of the MonkeyLord Guitar Forum to design their ultimate guitar, but soon snowballed into a true guitar phenomenon.
Specification “Pre-Pay now to guarantee one of the very special 500 CG ML1 guitars. The
guitar will be delivered to you by UPS directly during March 2010. You will be
informed of the delivery date via email.”
The MonkeyLord concept was to provide the basis for an awesome guitar at a very affordable price. By insisting on the highest quality parts for most important bits of the guitar – the Body Wood; Fingerboard; Nut; Trem System – the CGML1 represents superb value.
Rob will be running ongoing YouTube projects with all CGML1 owners where he will cover Upgrading your Pickups, Refinishing the Body and much more.Check out Rob’s Overview of the CGML1 here
