Information

These two guitars were delivered together with three other new Manson guitars in October 2016 to Matt. Both guitars featured the standard Gotoh bridge in the beginning, whereas one of the two guitars featured a Gotoh 510 bridge at it's first live outing.

The Holoflakes both feature Manson custom aluminium tone and volume knobs and standard chrome tuners.

Touring

Both guitars were first used for the North American leg of the Drones World Tour in 2015. The guitars were first used for Dead Inside and Map of the Problematique and were tuned as CADGBE (Drop C).

Later however, the guitars were differenciated : the #1 was reserved for older songs which require a tuning of half-step down (like Showbiz) that are not played often, up until 2019, while the #2 was used almost exclusively for Map of the Problematique, up until 2016 before getting replaced by other guitars.

The #2 was again used in 2022 for Map of the Problematique during the european legs of the Will of the People Festivals Tour and the Will of the People World Tour.
