Fender Stratocaster
Background
During a gig in Osaka,Kyoto Japan in 2001, Matt can be seen playing an all white stratocaster.
Chris had been seen using a dark coloured Stratocaster with matching painted head stock and a white pickguard to play Hoodoo since 2006-10-24, before he changed for the PRS, which he uses currently. Although it's appears to be a Stratocaster, it has a Tele headstock and it looks like it has different switches and knobs. Could also have been a custom Manson.
Later, for the Psycho UK Tour, Matt used a Fender Aluminum Stratocaster.
In the "Making of Uprising" pre-order download, Matt can be seen using various guitars, including a Fender Stratocaster, Gibson Les Paul and the Glitterati Manson, to play the guitar break; however, the Stratocaster is not the guitar featured on the final track.
In footage from the studio, recording The 2nd Law, Matt has been using a sunburst Stratocaster for the song Animals. The sunburst Strat has also been used by Chris live during the first few gigs of the The Unsustainable Tour for Unintended, Blackout and for the rhythm part of Guiding Light.
A light blue Stratocaster has been used by Matt on Drones on Defector and The Globalist and possibly a couple other songs aswell.
