Background
One of two new Bomber guitars made for Bellamy in 2016.
This guitar is almost identical to the Manson Metal Bomber and other 2015 bomber guitars, but it features custom hardware and a Xenokroma finish.
Both 2016 bombers (the Xenokroma Bomber and the Stealth Bomber) appear to feature stronger body contours, as opposed to previous Bombers having smoother contouring.
Touring
The guitar's first live appearance was at the second Glasgow SSE Hydro gig in 2016. It was last used at Sziget Festival in 2016.
The guitar was used in Rig A with the Manson Stealth Bomber later joining in in Rig B.
The two bombers were later succeeded by the Manson Chrome FR in 2017.
