    MB-1 New Era Stage Edition

     

    Modelled on the most current edition of the guitar used every night for the finale of MUSE shows, the MB1 Stage is much more than a staple but an icon of modern guitar culture. This instrument is synonymous with the explosive performances Matthew Bellamy has built his inimitable reputation on as a live artist. Referred to as 'The Smasher' by MUSE crew this guitar continues to fly though the air in arenas all over the world and lives to tell the tale again and again.

    This new variant has had a number of tweaks on the original including a lightweight obeche body, contoured heel and recessed bridge slot to increase the ease of feel and comfort with no compromise on quality or structural integrity - To quote Matt “They're built like tanks!”

    A slick, fast feel comes from the modded neck with a 12 inch radius, recessed bridge and reduced neck angle for the ultimate in lightning fast performances.

    See it in Muse’s latest release, ‘Cryogen’
