"The ML3BEA Carthus Burst I feel is the pinnacle of what I could design With Chapman guitars. I wanted to create a beautiful workhorse guitar, boasting the highest spec parts, and a stunning exotic wood top.

Designed to be a lead focused instrument, the ML3BEA CB is equipped with the Schaller Vintage floating Tremolo, giving a smooth action for silky leads passes. But it can also be set back to the body for a Hardtail style configuration.

The finish, inspired by From Software's Dark Souls 3 references the Catacombs of Carthus, filled with fire, sand and stone, teamed with gold hardware give this guitar an infinitely detailed look.

Housing my signature Bare Knuckle SILO pickup in the bridge, and a Seymour Duncan Little '59 in the neck hooked up to the 5-way super switch. The tonal variety in this guitar is huge!

For me, I feel the ML3BEA guitars have reached their final form. I hope you enjoy playing them as much as I do!"
