[[Matthew Bellamy]] owns between 38-45 Manson guitars, of which all were built by [[Hugh Manson]] (before 2009) except the [[Manson Mirror Kaoss | Mirror Kaoss]], [[Manson Doubleneck | Doubleneck]], [[Manson Keytar | Keytar]] and [[Manson Matt Black II  | Matt Black II]] and many more, which were built by Tim Stark. Hugh still makes guitars for Matt, but nowadays, most of the work is done by head luthier at Manson Guitar Works, Tim Stark. All of the guitars built for Bellamy, aside from the 7 String E Guitar, have a shape that he designed alongside Hugh Manson in 2001, dubbed Mattocaster or MB shape. The Mattocaster shape resulted from Bellamy wanting a guitar with "the body of a Fender Telecaster and the sound of a Gibson Les Paul".{{cite/none}}

Manson guitars line-up for the 2019 tour with number and name labels by Matt's tech

Matthew Bellamy owns more than 50 Manson guitars, of which all were built by Hugh Manson (before 2009) except the Mirror Kaoss, Doubleneck, Keytar and Matt Black II and many more, which were built by Tim Stark. Hugh still makes guitars for Matt, but nowadays, most of the work is done by head luthier at Manson Guitar Works, Tim Stark. The vast majority of the gfuitars built for Matt have a shape that he designed alongside Hugh Manson in 2001, dubbed Mattocaster or MB shape. The Mattocaster shape resulted from Matt wanting a guitar with "the body of a Fender Telecaster and the sound of a Gibson Les Paul".[source?] Ron Joyce, Hugh's friend and electronic designer/engineer, also plays a big role in achieving the sound, as he designs, engineers and builds all the tech found in Matt's custom guitars.

In June 2019, Matt became the majority shareholder of Manson Guitar Works.[1] He outlined that him and the Manson team would actively investigate new products for heavier music genres (incl. 7 string guitars) and explore enchanced electronic features to evolve the guitar into the modern era of sound. He also mentioned the release of lower cost Manson guitars, the then named "M-Series" (now named MBM-1 Meta Series), to lower the barrier of entry for new customers. (see below).[2]
