This guitar is one of 12 new Manson Guitars built for Matt Bellamy from 2015. Built by Tim Stark in April 2015, this guitar is identical to the previous rebuilt Mirror 1.0,  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) to make transport easier.
