The presumed black Fender Stratocaster with matching painted headstock and white pickguard has been used by Chris during first performances of Hoodoo in 2006, being first used in Bilbao, before he switched to the PRS.
Allthough it appears to be a Stratocaster, it has a Telecaster headstock and looks like it has different switches and knobs. It's possible this could've been a custom Manson, allthough this still remains unknown.
