Background

This guitar is in terms of specification exactly the same like the Manson Matt Black Stealth 2.0 guitar. The neck features the old manson logo, as does the covered Psychopaf PF-1 Humbucker pickup.

It was handed over to Matt during May rehearsals for the EU/UK leg of the Simulation Theory Tour 2019 at AIR Studios.

Touring

The guitar was thought to have been planned for live use at some point during the Simulation Theory World Tour, though it was ultimately never used. Nevertheless, the guitar was still seen on display with Manson's other guitars at the Manson guitar stand on tour with Muse during Simulation Theory Tour's UK and France legs.

Surprisingly, it made its first appearance in Guadalajara during the Will of the People World Tour for Madness and was used for various songs during the rest of the American leg of the tour.

The guitar almost survived the tour completely unscathed as it was only used for TIRO, Madness and Resistance (which are not songs in which Matt tends to smash guitars), however, it was smashed during the surprise performance of Showbiz at Rock Werchter 2023.
