New Satin Olive Green option, return of the popular “Red Sparkle” finishes plus black hardware options from the Manson Guitar Works Meta Series MBM-2
Incredible price point for a signature model which incorporates bespoke design and components
All design and development work completed and personally overseen by Manson Guitar Works
Matthew Bellamy, the lead guitarist in the rock band Muse, Manson Guitar Works and global manufacturer Cort announce the launch of two new exciting color finishes on the Manson Meta Series MBM-2 Matthew Bellamy Signature, award winning guitar, plus further model choices with black hardware and left hand variants to expand the range and offer additional options.
Following many public requests, the MBM-2H now includes a retrospective return of the original MBC-1 Red Sparkle finish, a striking high gloss glitter lacquer that pays tribute to the artist’s “Santa” instruments used widely in the studio and on stage. It is available as either a twin humbucker pickup version or a Sustainiac equipped variant. The former incorporates Manson Guitar Works design humbuckers, first seen on the previous MBM-1 model to deliver a powerful but versatile combination whether soloed or in combination.
The Sustainiac version replaces the neck humbucker with the same pickup system used by Bellamy in his stage and studio instruments. The pickup can be switched to work as an active and detailed regular neck pickup or switched into Sustain mode where three alternative sustainiac modes are available, each giving endless sustain operation.
Also new for the 2025/26 model year is a new color – Satin Olive Green – which will also be available in dual humbucker and Sustainiac equipped models plus a left-hand option. Equipped for the first time with black hardware, the instrument brings the current range up to three color choices (the popular Satin Black remains in the line-up), two model variations and left hand variants for the model year.
The features that have garnered a Total Guitar 5/5 Platinum award, Electric Guitar Of The Year Award (MIA/Guitarist) and Guitarist Signature Guitar of the Year awards remain in place including a sleek, compound radius neck, kill button for stutter effects, whilst introducing Manson’s renowned quality and design offering the shape, features and details that feature on the company’s headline products.
