    Meta Series MBM-2 Dry Satin Black

    The new META Series MBM-2 Signature Guitar is an evolution of our current MBM-1 guitar, our lower price point instrument that delivers a whole new playing and ownership experience for the Manson Guitar Works player. Produced under licence with Cort, it has now been further modified and developed to reflect more closely the body shape of the guitars that Matthew Bellamy plays on stage with MUSE, whilst adding a new options such as a P-90 neck pickup shown here.
     
    The body shape is freshly contoured and available in the ever-popular Satin Black or a new Starlight Silver finish. A new high output P-90 neck pickup offers a new neck voicing to the MBM-1 humbucker to more closely match the raw and powerful sounding bridge humbucker pickup. This configuration reflects the sounds found on Bellamy’s earlier guitar tones during Showbiz and Origin of Symmetry.  A kill-button allows stutter style effects.
     
    Hardware is chrome finished and features staggered locking tuners for quick string changes and the elimination of a traditional string tree.
     
    The basswood body combines light weight with a neutral tonal balance. The bolt-on neck design features a hard maple construction with an Indian laurel fingerboard. The satin finish neck feels played in from day one and features a compound radius and a soft V profile.
