Background
Built presumably in 2024, this guitar is unique in that it was advertised when produced as a signature model even though it had not been seen before (signature models typically follow their live debut). It went on sale in early summer of 2024 on MGW's website with a batch limited to 10 units.
Unlike its earlier brothers, the Manson Black 7 String and Manson Black 7 String 2.0, this guitar features an all black Gotoh 510 FX7 bridge, ebony fretboard, a natural non-painted neck, black aluminium control knobs, and a PF-1 pickup with no ring surround. The most notable difference is the headstock, featuring in-line tuners as found on typical 6-string models, contrasting the 4 & 3 a-side tuners seen on all of Matt's previous 7-string headstocks.
Touring
Made its debut for Citizen Erased at Hellfest 2025. It is labeled by Matt's guitar tech simply as "Citizen Erased", likely indicating it may be used on occasion for the 2025 summer festivals.
