![]() The guitar world was blown away when the Manson 007 was unveiled, but nobody knew what to make of the Manson M1D1 Black when it first came out in 2006. ![]() This axe is equipped with a Seymour Duncan Hot P90 and Fernandes Sustainer FSK–401 in the neck and a Bare Knuckle Mississippi Queen P90 in the bridge. It’s actually a ZVex Wah Probe that is controlled by the motion and position of Bellamy’s hand when it moves across it. The shiny gold piece on the horn isn’t there just for looks. The 007 also has a set of custom red LEDs that light up the fret inlays down the neck, as well as a ZVex Fuzz Factory built right inside of the guitar itself, which Bellamy uses for those incredible high–pitched squeals of feedback. This touch–sensitive strip allowed Bellamy to control a Digitech Whammy with the swipe of a finger on his picking hand. It was an unprecedented piece of design ingenuity when it was built back in 2001, with functionality to control MIDI data via a MIDI strip controller. The 007 - or “Black Manson,” as some fans have dubbed it - has enough on–board tech to make it look like some forgotten NASA project. It’s a sight to behold and somewhat confounding if you’re not a total music gear nerd. The Manson 007 was one of Bellamy’s first guitars to be built by Manson. Muse - Supermassive Black Hole (Live From Wembley Stadium) The Black Manson and The Kaoss Manson While Bellamy keeps dozens of these guitars in his arsenal, today we're going to focus on two of the early examples that remain most emblematic. Bellamy’s basic request for a custom guitar was one that had the feel of a Fender Telecaster with the sound of a Gibson Les Paul, but the renown they’ve gained both within and beyond the Muse fanbase comes from the panoply of otherworldly technical innovations and add–ons. The “Mattocaster” moniker derives from its general Telecaster–esque look. As the years have gone on, Manson has grown as a builder, and Bellamy’s playing style and sound has evolved around these instruments.Īppropriately dubbed “Mattocasters,” over 50 of these guitars have been custom–built by Manson for Bellamy across a range of colors and technical specifications. ![]() But anyone who knows anything about the Muse frontman knows that his axes go far beyond your traditional guitar.īritish luthier Hugh Manson has been building guitars for Bellamy for years, packing them with MIDI capability, touch–sensitive screens, and other futuristic goodies. *Operating System support assumes you are using the latest point release.Matt Bellamy certainly knows how to wrangle six strings and a chunk of wood.
