| This is a series of almost identical Manson guitars that Matt has been using since March 2015. They are the succesors of the [[Manson Matt Black|Matt Black I]] and the [[Manson Matt Black (batch)|Matt Black II - VIII]] guitars, used between 2012 and 2013. Like all 2015 guitars built by Manson, these guitars feature a truss rod adjuster that is placed just below the end of the neck, and have a slightly different bridge compared to the old Matt Blacks.

| These two guitars are exactly the same as the [[Manson Matt Black Stealth (batch) |Manson Matt Black Stealth #1]] except for the normal 'silver' custom hardware, instead of the all black custom hardware.
| |
|
| |
| Photos, taken before the [[Psycho UK Tour]] started, saw the guitar in Matt's guitar rack. Official photos from Manson Guitar Works led to the assumption, that Matt got two of these guitars delivered (#1 + #2), together with four [[Cort MBC-1 Matthew Bellamy Signature Guitar |Cort MBC-1 guitars]]. The original headstocks of these guitars featured the old Manson logo.
| |
|
| |
| == Touring ==
| |
|
| |
| The first guitar (#1) appeared at the [[Belfast_Ulster_Hall_2015_(gig)|Belfast Ulster Hall]] on the opening night of the [[Psycho_UK_Tour | 2015 Psycho Tour]]. On this tour it was used for songs with the guitar tuned to Drop C (Map Of The Problematique, Dead Inside) and DGDGBE (Uprising).
| |
|
| |
| It is unknown at which point #2 was used live for the first time, but it was seen at the [[Los Angeles Mayan Theatre 2015 (gig)| Mayan gig]] together with it's twin, the #1.
| |
|
| |
| As of the Psycho US Tour, Matt used #1 and #2 for various tunings alongside the #3 Matt Black 2.0. He also used them at some of the festival shows, until he destroyed #1 at the [[Leicestershire Donington Park 2015 (gig) |Download Festival]] in 2015.
| |
|
| |
| At some point during the [[Drones Festivals Tour]], the remaining guitar of these twins (labelled as #2) got a new neck, that features blackened custom hardware and a black truss rod adjuster.
| |
|
| |
| During the Drones World Tour in 2015/16 and the North American Summer Amphitheatre tour in 2017, buyers of the VIP tickets were able to visit a MUSEum, where Muse exhibits like old guitars, gear and clothing were on display. One of the guitars was the #1, that he destroyed at Download Festival.

| Two new guitars built by Tim Stark in April/May 2015.
| |
|
| |
|
| They are exactly the same as the #3, but it features a [[Sustainiac Infinite Sustain System|Sustainiac]], instead of a [[Fernandes Sustainer]], in the neck pickup position.
| | Announced on June 8th, 2021, Muse were the second headliner to be announced for the 2022 Firenze Rocks festival in Florence, Italy, with the gig planned to take place on June 17th, 2022, at Visarno Arena.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/CP0eKbjodqA/</ref> |
|
| |
|
| The #3 and #4 are Matt's first 6-string guitars with the Sustainiac system (Sustainiac has been fitted before on both of his black glitter 7-string guitars). These guitars also feature a Gotoh nickel bridge. Both feature the old Manson logo on their headstocks.
| | This will be the first Muse gig in Florence since 2007, when they performed in Florence's [[Florence Piazzale Michelangelo 2007 (gig)|Piazzale Michelangelo]]. |
