MLB1 Pro is the first Pro Series electric bass model; it is still in the prototype phase, though it is listed on the Chapman Guitars site along with the regular ones. The upper-intermediate class four-stringer is based on the Standard Series MLB1 concept and imbued with Pro Series features. Main characteristics include the solid & double-cut body w/neck-thru construction, regular 34" scale, elegant styling, and Chapman/Wilkinson hardware. There is no definitive data on the selection of pickups yet, with controls assumed to be in vol/vol/tone (push-pull on tone pot) configuration. Walnut w/satin finish & black hardware is the only color option assigned to MLB1 Pro thus far. Other notable features include American walnut body wings, roasted maple/black walnut neck, 24-fret wenge fingerboard, Chapman Monorail bridge, and Wilkinson tuners.
