Manson Guitar Works MB-1 New Era Stage Edition Electric Guitar, Ebony FB, Dry Satin Black

Modelled after the latest version of the guitar used every night during the finale of MUSE performances, the MB1 Stage is more than a staple but an icon in modern guitar culture. Closely associated with the explosive live shows that have defined Matthew Bellamy’s unmistakable stage presence, this instrument has earned legendary status. Referred to as 'The Smasher' by MUSE crew this guitar continues to fly though the air in arenas all over the world and lived to tell the tale again and again.

This new variant has had a number of tweaks on the original including our lightweight obeche body, contoured heel and recessed bridge slot to increase the ease of feel and comfort with no compromise on quality or structural integrity. As Matt puts it, "they're built like tanks!"Added fast feel comes from the modded neck that now includes a 12" radius.
