Description
Prepare to embark on a sonic journey with the Chapman DPT, a signature masterpiece that pays homage to the legendary session guitar virtuoso, and Andertons YouTube legend Peter Honoré. This guitar is not just an instrument; it’s a portal to a world where retro aesthetics meet contemporary brilliance.
Featuring a brand new paint finish that gives the feel of a played in guitar - our 'Retrograde' finish is a process that starts before paint is applied, and includes our recipe of satin and gloss. The end result is a finish doesn't crack but does give the impression of an old nitro guitar where paint has seeped into the grain of the wood making it visible and textured.
“I Am So Proud Of How This Guitar Turned Out, It Plays And Sounds Amazing And Talking About The Feeling, Nothing Will Be Closer To My OG Purple Guitar Than The DPT. I Just Love It.” - PETER HONORÉ
THE PLAYERS DREAM NECK
Boasting a Maple neck with a Rosewood fretboard and 22 vintage appropriate narrow-tall nickel frets. With a 25.5” scale length, a comfortable C-shaped profile (laser scanned from Pete’s, personal guitar), it’s a player’s dream.
MODERN VINTAGE DESIGN
Painstakingly designed from scratch to incorporate all of the curves that Pete required and crafted from Alder, the DPT’s retro vibes are complemented by its finish options Flint Blue, Fall Yellow, and Grove Green.
VERSATILE PICKUPS
Loaded with Peter Honoré’s custom Wilkinson R-series pickups, this guitar packs a versatile punch.
The 8k Alnico V bridge pickup and the 7k Alnico V neck are subtle and warm, while also being able to deliver clear driven tones.
