Background

The guitar was first seen used by Bellamy in 2015 and was used live up until 2017.

The Aluminium Strat has also been seen in the studio during the making of Simulation Theory. It was likely used on Break It to Me due to the distinct neck pick up sound, and a couple other songs off of the album.

Touring

Matthew Bellamy first used this Fender Stratocaster extensively on the Psycho UK Tour and the Psycho US Tour in early 2015, debuting live in Belfast. After a period of assumed inactivity, this guitar returned to the stage for the The Drones World Tour 2015/16, with the low E string tuned down to A for The Globalist on which it was used to it's last performance in 2017

The Aluminium Strat was marked "6" by Matt's guitar tech.
