Background

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.

First seen in the "Making of Uprising" pre-order download, Matt can be seen using various guitars, including the light blue Fender Stratocaster, to play the guitar break; however, the Stratocaster is not the guitar featured on the final track.

The light blue Stratocaster has been seen once again used while recording Drones and was used on Defector and The Globalist, and possibly a couple other songs aswell.
