My New Guitar :)
Posted: Sun May 24, 2009 1:22 pm
There's a guitar company here in the UK called Mansons Guitars who exclusively make guitars for a wide range of artists but are most well known for the insane guitars that they make for Muse (Video of one here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVVcnmV5Cqc) They also recently started making Matt Bellamy (from Muse) signature guitars which are FUCKING AMAZING. But are selling them for £3400 (that's $4100) it's worth every penny but I still can't afford one.
And also they recently started doing custom modded guitars for the public and opened up a better online store. I already own a Les Paul and I decided a while back that the next guitar I wanted would be a Fender '72 Telecaster Deluxe, which is actually the same guitar as Deryck Whibley just not his signature model.
And then I spotted this absolute beauty.
They've taken a Fuzz Factory pedal, stripped it and built it into the guitar itself the controls are behind the bridge, a mirror reflective muse-like pickguard, a killswitch and Mansons own MBK2 pickups. And i'm also considering getting an N-Tune built into it which lets you easily tune your guitar (http://www.harmony-central.com/ProductI ... 033101.jpg)
The value of the whole thing if I was too build it myself would be about £850 and i'm paying £1100 so it's not too bad. I would try and build it myself but I have absolutely no knowledge of guitar electronics.
Wiped out my bank account but it was so worth it. Should be here in August and I am so excited!
