[wickedexp]

What is £1500 in USA Dollars?

[Temptation777]

@wickedexp $2,222.10

[wickedexp]

@Temptation777 Wow... That's up there. Didn't expect that after the cost of the ML1. I wonder if he'll release a cheaper cost explorer with a ebony fretboard.

[ArctikFrost]

Jawsome.

@ninjamypinja Of course mate - No problem, just drop me an email and I'll send you some details ;-)

[DALE97DSM]

Awesome, you're building a signature Chapper Explorer.

[RobChappers]

@DALE97DSM Not a signature model mate, I own a guitar company - This will be the first of Chapman Guitars Original series, all hand built in England.

We will be making ML (£299 - £800), Original (£1,500 - £2,000) and custom guitars (£3,000 plus)

[redheadhistorian]

I want one, but I am poor and on the other side of the world :( Forelorn.

[Mysteriousheart]

What is this i dont understand?

[spicbuddha]

lefties left out in the cold...

[RobChappers]

@spicbuddha Wrong - Ever guitar I make from here in can be left or right handed since they are built to order ;-)

[BeR3Tt4]

LOL love the ending at 0:36

[TheShadyiPhone]

im glad i didnt have money for the first one!

that was quick, already gathering ideas for the second

[Junnage]

Wow I'm excited! I am now slightly regretting buying a new PRS Custom 24

[wackyoneone]

wow this sounds insane

[MattPurkis]

had a quick fondle of the ml1 in our local store today. screamed throught the engal like there was no tommorow. i was impressed

[RobChappers]

@MattPurkis Awesome mate - They are absolutely fantastic especially for the money! You should check out the custom jobs people have come up with on my forum ;-)

[dannygreen101]

hey chappers how big a hole would one of these burn in my wallet? me loves me some explorer goodness!

[RobChappers]

@dannygreen101 The Chapman Guitars original series will go for £1,500 Deposits being taken in late May ;-)

[XAlphaZEROX]

what will the retail price be of the ghost fret?

[bretona]

[rickyjshiznit]

hey chappers was all that stuff that was wound up fret wire?

[RustyR]

I want an explorer!

Why in the name of Cheesus Christ must I have no money!

[esdreas10101]

holy shit

I am definately DEFINATELY buying one!!!

[RobChappers]

@esdreas10101 You can reserve one directly through me in a few weeks just email me at the usual address ;-)

[esdreas10101]

@RobChappers rightous! thanks a lot!

[kakashihatake1321]

[RobChappers]

@kakashihatake1321 I can confirm that it will have 24 frets ;-)

[kakashihatake1321]

@RobChappers EPIC CANT WAIT EVEN MORE NOW

[TOTOsupra]

Lol awesome.

[SteelSkin667]

I'd rather see a Tune-o-matic style bridge on this. Personal preference of course. The rest of the hardware looks very promising. Can't wait to see that!:)

[hiitsmcjosh]

Thanks Chappers, this looks awesome!

I'm definitely buying this.

[RobChappers]

@hiitsmcjosh You may be the first guy to own one then ;-)

[gunturrent0shii]

Damn it! If only i live in england LOL

[RobChappers]

@gunturrent0shii Available worldwide my friend! Shipped in a custom hiscox case ;-)

[gunturrent0shii]

@RobChappers oh shit! really? r they available just through online, or local stores?

[gunturrent0shii]

@RobChappers oh shoot! really?are they just available through online, or are they actually in local stores too?

[RobChappers]

@gunturrent0shii Only available online and direct from me - They are built to order, through a retailer they would cost you thousands. They will come with a good warranty ;-)

[smp156]

what's the Ghost Fret

is that anything like the Phantom Jack?

[theboywhocantollie]

how much is this bad boy going for then?

[RobChappers]

@theboywhocantollie The Ghost Fret will retail for £1,500

[theboywhocantollie]

@RobChappers awsome, no offense but the video didnt really tell me what the specs were :D, could you fill me in ?

[RobChappers]

@theboywhocantollie Hi mate, my guitars are collaboratively designed with the public via votes - Therefore we have yet to decide what the spec will be! So far the guys have chosen Korina body wood and an Explorer body shape, I chose the pus in this video and a hard tail - The rest, as they say, is up to you! ;-)

[theboywhocantollie]

@RobChappers awsome! i dont know how to vote, but an ebony fretboard would be sick!

[shatoutofhell72]

Fingers crossed for tonight's lotto... I wouldn't mind a piece of this pie :D

[GoFuckYourself131]

Awesome! I remember when you were still doing the ML1, i asked if you would do a Explorer next! might have yourself a potential customer ;)

[hughh20]

0:36, please say you're making that a t-shirt!

[RobChappers]

@hughh20 What dude? Guitarmaggedon?

[hughh20]

@RobChappers No, the 'monkey lord approved' thing.

[RobChappers]

@hughh20 Oh that!! ha ha yeah that will be on a shirt soon ;-)

[JordanKVW]

This is perfect for me!

[Judoking96]

Hey Rob.

will you please explain to me what the difference between "f-spaced" and regular pickups are?

someone told me that if i have a floyd rose that i need to get f spaced

[peavyt15]

@Judoking96 F spaced means it is spaced for a fender style guitar which is slighty different than standard.

[FloroSapien]

Oh my God, ever since you've started this project I've wanted to say "MAKE AN EXPLORER, MOTHERFUCKER."

[chuckbuntz]

cant wait to hear what this baby is gonna sound like XD

[joshthemangojunkee40]

I AM INTRIGUED!!!!!

[TheYeasteatingwalrus]

[Addicted2Guitar93]

[Da0wN3R]

[bigleemac]

@Da0wN3R

[RobChappers]

@Da0wN3R  Ok ;-)

[rfwood77]

Me wants it, me wants it now!!! :(

[ckcoolidge]

Whoa!

[demonix888]

D-Activators! Good fucking choice!

[RobChappers]

@demonix888 Yeah mate I tried them out on the advice of my friend Monty - They are superb if you have them set up right! ;-)

[demonix888]

@RobChappers Dude, I am Monty! the username "monty888" was taken when I set this account up, so I used my gaming name XD

[rgjmce666]

oh my god, an explorer approved by chappers, might get one of these

[Rennanxp2]

huahua Cool .. if isn't Champmam products Isn't Good Enough !

[cderycke]

DO WANT!!!! :(

[cplmac]

Explorer! Good choice Rob, I'll definitely have to pick one of these up.

[RobChappers]

@cplmac I will be taking deposits and reservations in late May - Prototype one will be with me for my clinic on the 23rd may ;-)

[cplmac]

@RobChappers Cheers, mate... although i just read on the forum that it's gonna go for around £150? I know i'd definitely paid more for the quality to be good.

[demonix888]

@cplmac it's gonna go for £1500 man, not £150 :D

Monty

[cplmac]

@demonix888 I think you might be mistaken... Unless i'm the one with the wrong end of the stick?

[demonix888]

@cplmac The Ghost Fret will definately be £1500 - it's the travel guitar (or Jackhammer, as it's been called) that will be around £150.

[cplmac]

@demonix888 Oh ok, thanks for clearing that up.

[JerkyChid]

@RobChappers

Korina? YES!

Explorer?  POINTY FTW!

NT? YES!!

When this is made public I SHOULD have money!

[JerkyChid]

wait, $2300?...

ok now I can't..

[Donassa]

i nearly jizzed my pants!!

[LiamRTube]

New guitar then? I'm hoping for 24 Frets, Fixed Bridge, Nice Passives, Locking Tuners!

[svee]

PMSL wasnt expecting that ending :D

Made me jump.

[LeeavAccordian]

Awesome! What sound is that?

[LeeavAccordian]

@LeeavAccordian i mean song... oops..

[RobChappers]

@LeeavAccordian That is Breath by my band Monkey lord, available on iTunes ;-)

[WedlakeProductions]

Awesome. I gotta get me an ML1!
