Background
This guitar is in terms of specification exactly the same like the Manson Matt Black Stealth 2.0 guitar. The neck features the old manson logo, as does the covered Psychopaf PF-1 Humbucker pickup.
It was handed over to Matt during May rehearsals for the EU/UK leg of the Simulation Theory Tour 2019 at AIR Studios.
Touring
The guitar was thought to have been planned for live use at some point during the Simulation Theory World Tour, though it was ultimately never used. Nevertheless, the guitar was still seen on display with Manson's other guitars at the Manson guitar stand on tour with Muse during Simulation Theory Tour's UK and France legs.
Surprisingly, it made its first appearance in Guadalajara during the Will of the People World Tour for Madness and was used for various songs during the rest of the American leg of the tour.
The guitar almost survived the Will of the People Tour completely unscathed as it was only used for Time is Running Out, Madness and Resistance (which are not songs in which Matt tends to smash guitars). However, Matt smashed the guitar multiple times during the surprise performance of Showbiz at Rock Werchter 2023. This presumably damaged the guitar beyond use, as the Manson Holoflake #3 was used at subsequent shows that year. This turned out to be false as this guitar was used again during the last show of the summer in Malaysia.
Songs used for
- Madness
