This is one of ten new Manson guitars from 2015. It is identical to Copper Bomber 2.0, and is created solely as a live duplicate for Matt's 2015 rig. As with the original, it is very similar to the [[Manson Chrome Bomber |Chrome Bomber]] in terms of circuitry and body shape. Like all new Manson Guitars from 2015 it features a truss rod adjuster at the end of the neck. Unlike the original, the guitar also features standard Gotoh chrome knobs for the tone and volume controls and standard Gotoh 510 H.A.P. tuners.
The Copper Bomber 2.0 was created after Matt reported issues with [[Manson Copper Bomber|Copper Bomber 1.0]]'s Floyd Rose FRX bridge.

The Floyd Rose FRX Tremolo system is the Floyd Rose which can be attached on the Tune-O-Matic bridge routing guitar without any routing on the body. Made by Tim Stark in April 2015, it is a live duplicate for either 'Rig A' or 'Rig B'. The idea is that Matt can have a set of guitars for use in the Americas (Rig A), and another rig for use in other regions of the world (Rig B).
It was first used at the [[Norwich Earlham Park 2015 (gig) |BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend]] gig. It's last live use was at the [[Ischgl Ski Resort 2016 (gig)|Ischgl Ski Resort gig]], where it made it's only live appearance in 2016.

The guitar was numbered by Matt's tech as "4" on the strap. It appeared throughout the '15 Festivals Tour and a few gigs of the Drones 360 Tour in Rig A, with the [[Manson Metal Bomber]] in Rig B.

Background

The Copper Bomber 2.0 was created after Matt reported issues with Copper Bomber 1.0's Floyd Rose FRX bridge. In terms of looks, the shapea and circuitry, it is nearly identical to it and the Manson Chrome Bomber. Like all Manson Guitars from 2015, it features a truss rod adjuster at the end of the neck. Unlike the Copper Bomber 1.0, the guitar also features standard Gotoh tone and volume knobs and a standard Floyd Rose Tremolo System, not the FRX.

Touring

It was first used at the BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend gig. It's last live use was at the Ischgl Ski Resort gig, where it made it's only live appearance in 2016.

The guitar was numbered by Matt's tech as "4" on the strap. It appeared throughout the '15 Festivals Tour and a few gigs of the Drones 360 Tour in Rig A, with the Manson Metal Bomber in Rig B.
