  Is it just me, or has Chapman morphed into the James Corden of the guitar world?

  The blue British ML-1 was mine. It was built by Jaden Rose along with one for Nick Johnston and Rob himself (who sold his own model as soon as I informed him that I was going to sell mine and terminate the relationship). <br><br>The guitar itself was fine but not better than any of the guitars that Jaden built under his own name. And that is where the problem lies - by &quot;Chapmanising&quot; guitars from Jaden Rose, Sims Custom, PJD or any other workshop, the guitar buyer loses out. They have to pay a substantially higher price and lose the experience of having a guitar built to their own specifications. <br><br>I feel it is a sneaky act to continually obscure the fact that these guitars are, and always have been built by workshops that buyers can also access directly. That doesn&apos;t gel with Lee&apos;s claims of impartiality and being on the side of his customers; I wonder if that is why he always looks so uncomfortable whenever he appears publicly with Rob nowadays.<br><br>I wish them the best but I implore anyone considering a British Chapman to also consider some of the other British brands available around (and even well below) the £3500 price point; Grays Guitars, Patrick James Eggle, PJD, Gordon Smith, Mike Smith Guitars to name but a few.

  Chapman is to guitar business what the Titanic was to floating.

  This video has more views than the actual Chapman announcement video, it&apos;s crazy how far his channel has fallen view-wise. I remember back in the day he was pretty much the biggest guitar YouTuber

  KDH: &quot;Are they good? They&apos;d have to be at that price point.&quot; <br><br>Gibson: sweats profusely.

  Glad I wasn’t the only one who raised an eyebrow when this was announced.
