Background
This guitar that appeared at the Stockholm STV TV Programme on the 14th of September 2012. Like the Manson Carbon, this guitar does not feature a X/Y midi controller pad, which is a change from a majority of Matt's Resistance era guitars.
The guitar had to match a specific weight requirement (around 2.4kg) so multiple holes were drilled into the body, neck (routed), hardware to reach the target weight. This is the lightest guitar Hugh has built for Matt. This is the second of six Manson guitars created by Hugh Manson for Bellamy in 2012.
It features the custom knobs and machineheads of the Manson Delorean, but with 5/6 holes drilled into them at the back to reduce the weight.
Also it is nearly identical with the Manson Matt Black II and Manson Matt Black III.
Touring
With the Manson M1D1 Gloss Black it is the most frequently guitar used on The 2nd Law tour.
On the April 10, 2013 Toronto gig this guitar featured a new (natural) maple neck. The reason for the change remains uncertain, as the guitar wasn't smashed the evening before but only slided a few times over the pyramid LED-panels during the Stockholm Syndrome outro.
