They are the official names which Matt calls his guitars. There is a picture of a setlist for Matt's tech which shows which guitars are used for which songs and what they should be tuned to in the NME 100 Page Icons Special. It should also be noted that the Silver/ Chrome Bomber and the Mirror Manson are not the names which Matt calls them, however the names are to hard to read from the picture of said setlist.

Sorting
I'm not sure which is best, but my personal preference is chronological order. --Tene 17:14, 8 September 2009 (BST)
I preferred my version being honest, but I'll leave it to everyone else to decide which is the best way to set it out. AJ` 18:08, 8 September 2009 (BST)
Double neck Manson???
I found this tweet from Bare Knuckle Pickups, what do you think? --Martino 17:24, 16 April 2010 (BST)
- Perhaps something to do with the studio photographs posted on twitter. I don't know what to think, the twitter feed is linked to on Bare Knuckle Pickups' front-page, so the feed appears genuine. I can't imagine any motivation to fib, so unless it's a joke, I guess it could be true. Double-neck guitars would be a bit of a change, to say the least. Metal songs on the horizon? --Tene 11:28, 17 April 2010 (BST)
Black Ed
I was reading Matt's interview in Guitar Player mag and he said that the guitar he used most on the Resistance was called Black Ed. I was just wondering if anyone new if this was the 007 or the Black Midi? --Muserism 00:19, 17 June 2010 (BST) --- I'm sure it is Kaoss Manson, beacause it is used for the most songs of the 'black' guitars --IIIAliAsIII 17:00, 17 June 2010 (GMT) --- I read the article and I reckon it 007/Blackie, he mentions it had Fuzz Factory & Wah Probe etc, its the only guitar that has a Wah Probe --RustRelic It was the 007/Black Manson. Thats wat he said in an interview a while ago. Im sry i dont have a link. --MuseIsAwesome13 02:14, 13 July 2010 (BST) --- OK it looks like Black Ed is Blackie. But - don't we agree it is the least used guitar not just in the Resistance era, but always... ? It is used for Starlight again and it was used for U2 and AC/DC cover, and for Uprising and Unnatural selection at the beginning of the tour - and that is pretty much it. For example.. even Glitterati is used more often than 007. But most used manson this year is definatly Kaoss. My guess is Matt was a little confused during that interview :) --IIIAliAsIII 12:28, 13 July 2010 (GMT) --- Another thing though, they use different guitars in studio than on tour. Maybe they just used 007 for recording but didn't like it's live sound. Cause he said he used it to record. --MuseIsAwesome13 15:44, 13 July 2010 (BST)
New Manson??
Matt showed this new guitar at Silver Clef Awards 2010... does anyone know something more?
- I would say that he spray painted an old one but the knobs are different too. --MuseIsAwesome13 16:34, 3 July 2010 (BST)
- i know.. and it has a button instead of a toggle switch.. like new mirror/kaoss manson (idk the right name)--Martino 18:23, 3 July 2010 (BST)
- It is definitly new guitar. It most likely has Manson's pickup on the bridge and P90 on the neck (that would be the first combination like that), push button kill switch and no special circuits in it. This is Delorean 3 :) But we should rather wait until it is used at a gig (if it'll ever be) and than we'll know more. Or if anybody else has some more info... :) --IIIAliAsIII 19:33, 3 July 2010 (GMT)
up to now this guitar is like the rusty one... built for Matt... but never used--Martino 18:38, 3 July 2010 (BST)
we'll never see it live, matt gave it away for charity here
Guitar names
Quote:Tene 21:38, 16. junij 2010; Revision history of "Manson Guitars":
Last change today, I think: appended names of guitars which only have a fun-dubbed name with a footnote symbol and added a matching footnote explaining that.
Kaoss Manson also needs a footnote symbol. It is not featured in the Muse gallery at the Mansons website and i believe it is called a Black Ed officialy (read the previous section). --IIIAliAsIII 17:21, 17 June 2010 (GMT)
- Righto, footnote symbol added. Will sort out the Black Ed bit by citing that article, doing a bit of stats on black guitars used and adding a bit of rationale. Later though, not now :P --Tene 17:42, 17 June 2010 (BST)
- OK :) and i've just found another one that is not featured at the Mansons and has unofficial name: Chrome Kaoss Manson. All the others are officialy named. --IIIAliAsIII 18:56, 17 June 2010 (GMT)
One thing I've noticed is that the Chrome Kaoss Manson keeps getting it's named changed to Mirror Kaoss. It keeps going back and forth between Chrome and Mirror. Can we make up our mind and just call it something? --MuseIsAwesome13 16:21, 28 June 2010 (BST)
- In my opinion Mirror Kaoss is better name for it than Chrome. Because finish is the same as the Mirror Manson has. --IIIAliAsIII 17:42, 28 June 2010 (GMT)
manson gallery updated with the new guitars, the neoncaster is called "Keytar", the casinocaster "Doubleneck" http://www.mansons.co.uk/gallery/
Guitar Names
Hey there,
If you go to the Manson Guitars website gallery and put the mouse over the pics of Matt's guitars it has what I think are Hugh's names for the guitar.
Cheers, --PhiLam64 23:19, 21 Jun 2010 (BST)
Could someone edit the links for the following guitars...
Mirror Kaoss: http://www.musewiki.org/Chrome_Kaoss_Manson >into> http://www.musewiki.org/Mirror_Kaoss_Manson
Doubleneck: http://www.musewiki.org/Casinocaster_Manson >into> http://www.musewiki.org/Doubleneck_Manson
Keytar Manson: http://www.musewiki.org/Manson_Keytar >into> http://www.musewiki.org/Keytar_Manson
I would do it myself, but I don't know how... --IIIAliAsIII 18:38, 31 Aug 2010
- Whereabouts on the Manson Guitars website are the names of these guitars? --Tene 20:17, 31 August 2010 (BST)
- They are on Stark Guitars facebook page. --Guitarcam 09:55, 1 September 2010 (BST)
- here are Doubleneck and Keytar: http://www.mansons.co.uk/gallery/ and here is Mirror Kaoss: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=26058&fbid=103014706425474&id=100001508349757 --IIIAliAsIII 19:08, 1 Sep 2010
- I see, so I guess the website has moved with no notice on the old one...and that Hugh Manson has learnt the spelling of "laser" :P --either that or whomever writes the website via their own volition.
- btw, to sign, use --~~~~ --Tene 15:38, 2 September 2010 (BST)
- Looks like the move log, like the revision log, doesn't have enough space for comprehensive rationale, so here's mine for forthcoming changes:
Look like there's a new Manson Guitars website (http://mansons.co.uk/gallery/). In said gallery, it's not explicitly stated that any of the guitars belong to/were built for Matthew Bellamy, but the images match the previous ones. One problem we do have now, is that Red Glitter appears to have been renamed Red Sparkle, while another less sparkly, non-custom-built guitar is called Red Glitter. For the sake of collective sanity, let's just make an intuitive judgement that the new information is more accurate than the old, despite the new gallery not explicitly stating that they're the guitars we're interested in.

Moving '$NAME Manson' to 'Manson $NAME'
Any objections? --Tene 21:17, 2 September 2010 (BST)
- I'm fine with that as long as NAMES are official :) (with the expetion of Glitter wich should not be sparkle :)
- BTW thanks for the sign info ;) testing... --IIIAliAsIII 21:27, 2 September 2010 (BST)

Who changed all the names of the guitars? I highly doubt the red glitter manson is named the Santa Manson (as cozy as that would be). On Manson's website it calls it 'Red Sparkle' ---PhiLam64 9 October
