Revision as of 09:04, 14 June 2015
This is a series of almost identical Manson guitars that Matt has been using since March 2015. They replaced the original Manson Matt Black and the Manson Matt Black (batch) guitars. Like all 2015 guitars built by Manson's, these guitars feature a truss rod adjuster that is placed just below the end of the neck and a slightly different bridge compared to the old Matt Blacks.
Currently for RIG A, there are THREE Matt Blacks, labeled '1' & '2' on the strap. All these have a Fernandes Sustainer in the neck position. For RIG B, there are likewise TWO Matt Blacks, labeled '1' and '2', There guitars have the Sustainiac sustainer fitted instead. It is possible that these numbers refer to the channels for the wireless packs as there are 4 channels of wireless.

It is exactly the same guitar like the Manson Matt Black Stealth except for the normal 'silver' hardware instead of the blackened hardware.

The headstock of this guitar features the old Manson logo. This guitar is numbered "1", by his guitar tech.
