Background

This is a modded Manson MB-1 still in production at Mansons. The initial idea was to transform an MB1 into the M1D1. Due to differences in wood the back of the guitar was to have a different finish to the original as well as a new ebony neck. The final guitar is more of a blend of two previously built manson guitars taking in different design and styling elements to make this unique 'M1B1'
