MuseRLegend Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Firstly, I'm very sorry if there's a thread about this already. If so, feel free to delete this. Yesturday I had the chance to visit Mansons guitar shoip in Exeter, which was absolutely amazing. Manson himself is on tour with Them Crooked Vultures at the moment, and somehow I got talking to his second in command. This man made Matt's second keytar, and helped with the Delores and the double necked Manson, so he knows his stuff. He's making any new orders that come in now from the band, as Hugh's away. Anyway, the serious news is, on the first night of Wembley, Matt smashed the Glittari. The design team then made a replacement one, should they not be able to fix it in time. Luckily it was fine for the second night, I believe. However, on the first tour date in America (I assume San Diego, 22/09/10) Matt smashed the orginial Glittari again, and its completely split in two. He's using the replacement at the moment, and as soon as the American tour has finished, its being shipped back to Mansons. The guy in the shop reckons they won't be able to fix it, so they'll display it in the shop beside Matt's other wreckage. Santa is no more Just thought I'd let you all know. And by the way, they let me hold Chris's blue bass used for the recording of OoS, and the following tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Old news... The death of glitterati has already been discussed quite a bit already. He didn't use the Glitterati on the the 2nd wembley as it was sent off to manson for repairs and used the MB-1 red glitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JessicaSarahS Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I'm pretty sure it was smashed at LA #2. It was used in SD-LA #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L. Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I thought it fell off the rack from matt's tower... then he used the new glitterati (santa 2.0) until he threw that one in Quebec. Edit: just checked good old musewiki and yes it was damaged beyond repair after it fell off the rack at LA 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareeh Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Yeah. That was such a buggy night technically, but it was one of my favorite shows ever. i'm not surprised seing as the guitars he had to use were replacements that wouldn't have been soundchecked.

Horcrux Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 oh wow, i hadn't realized it was the fall from the tower that killed the glitterati.... Me neither, I thought it was when he threw it at Dom and it smashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garseys Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 i'm not surprised seing as the guitars he had to use were replacements that wouldn't have been soundchecked. exactly I hated that guitar when it was debuted, now im sad its gone, considering it was probably matts most used guitar from 2007 until now. (a bit like delorean) It also took some serious abuse, headstock being rammed into amp cabs, bein slid acorss the stage on numerous occasions aswell.

Yeah, I mean, the guitar is iconic by now, and it's always managed to take a lot of abuse and survive, so idk, it seemed to me to be a guitar that would never die, like a superguitar or something. I know it's stupid to think so, but that's how I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-museing Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 That was the replacement. He takes such good care of his guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
