Background
One of the newest Mansons, Bellamy uses a heavily modified version of the Manson Oryx (as confirmed by Manson Guitar Works on their Instagram stories), with fanned frets, painted in all-white (including the neck), used for Won't Stand Down and another untitled track from the upcoming album. This also marks the first new Manson guitar in a long time, to be used by Bellamy, which is not off of his signature model range. The Manson Oryx is a guitar line made for former Periphery guitarist, producer/audio engineer, owner of GetGood Drums and multi-instrumentalist, Adam "Nolly" Getgood.
According to Bellamy, with the guitar having six strings and having a special dropped B tuning, the special fan-fretted fingerboard (being the first fan-fret on a Manson) helps string tension remain solid.
Touring
The guitar was first seen in the studio, on Muse's Instagram/TikTok video, showing Bellamy playing Won't Stand Down.[1] It is unknown if the guitar was also used during the recording phase, as the song was recorded in early 2021, about a year prior to the official release of the Oryx.
Live, the guitar uses a special dropped B tuning, and is used for Won't Stand Down.
