Lexical_Whale Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Plus, I imagine Matt would still want his own guitars remotely personal to him, rather than have each one copied Given the amount of compromises they've had to make with the designs of the MB1 and DL1 to get them to a reasonable cost and to be able to easily build them on a production line of sorts it's likely that if they ever made a version of this one it'd be quite different to the original. It'd probably end up just as the DL1 but painted black with a copper scratchplate. To be fair that could actually end up quite nice
musecasters Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Must be his, I remember a couple years ago that Son of Deloean was in for restoration, and that's only a few years old
metale Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 As much as I would like to see this guitar being released, as it's one of my favourites, I think that Manson will only release another model if it's something diferent from the existing ones. Â We've got one with the xy and sustainer (MB-1) and one with ff, phaser and MQ (DL-1). What could be next? One with locking trem?
Bs Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 But they won't release a chrome signature guitar because it's too unpredictable, and they've already got the DL-1, so releasing a signature of its successor would be a bit pointless, and then that's all of the guitars he's had with a locking tremolo so far, so I don't think that'll happen unless something changes significantly. I can see them following the CE-1 idea that they were talking about a while back, as I think Hugh's said before that that's one of his favourites out of Matt's guitars.
metale Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Either CE1 or mirror  Between those two, mirror IMHO. I cant imagine a CE-1 selling 25, but what do I know.
james90 Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 it's hard to say which one is more likely to happen  if they did a mirror one, it would probably be something like the DL-1 with a mirror top instead of aluminum
Dominic. Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Between those two, mirror IMHO. I cant imagine a CE-1 selling 25, but what do I know. Â I can't really imagine a CE1 either tbh. I bet most people wouldn't even know Matt had a guitar that shape. Would be nice to see Mansons do a run of E shape guitars, kinda like the MA series
Bs Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Yeah, it seems odd having a signature model of a guitar that wasn't built for him, and that he only uses for one song! Â But yeah, it would be nice to maybe get an E series going as well as the MAs or something and see them mixing it up a bit, but I guess they're already busy as it is, so maybe see how it goes.

Cosmo57 Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 I just wish there was an option to have a LoPro trem/nut and two P90s on the DL1. Then it would be a good replica of the Ali Top, which is a guitar I adore
Bs Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 I can see you're determined to be optimistic about this, but I really think it's pretty unlikely. They took things like the GK out of the Delorean because they thought it wasn't going to be value for money in that most people wouldn't actually use it. Same here. How many people actually know about the wah probe and the midi strip and so on. Really not that many, and not enough to be worth releasing it as a production guitar. They already have the MB-1 which has X-Y MIDI control, so there's not much point now releasing something which is less effective. That would only leave the wah probe, and I can't see them releasing it just for that.
Lord MFC Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 tbh i think they're done with signituring bellamy... unless theres a CE 1 Â and i think he was getting muddled with all those MoCs hanging up in the workshop... they're still there.
james90 Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 tbh i think they're done with signituring bellamy... unless theres a CE 1Â and i think he was getting muddled with all those MoCs hanging up in the workshop... they're still there. Â The MB-1s and DL-1s you mean?
Lord MFC Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 The MB-1s and DL-1s you mean? Â nah, ya know ages ago when someone like olly posted that pick of the workshop and all those mocs hanging up--- a few where mb1s but there where one or two that had different p/up configs and different finishes...
james90 Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 nah, ya know ages ago when someone like olly posted that pick of the workshop and all those mocs hanging up--- a few where mb1s but there where one or two that had different p/up configs and different finishes... Â All of these? Â Â it's probably the third batch or something...if not...that's strange...
MegaEBoy Posted April 23, 2011 Author Posted April 23, 2011 All of these?  it's probably the third batch or something...if not...that's strange...  Thats new, definatly a 007, it had the copper plate in and FF etc
metale Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Yes, Blackie does have FF and phaser etc, but it also has the MIDI strip AND the Wah Probe, and I imagine it will be rather popular though. Â Yeah, also the leds, sustainer PLUS P90, etc. Â Don't get me wrong, along with the black kaoss (twin P90) and gliteratti, this is my favourite guitar. But given how Manson simplified the Delorean into the DL-1, I think a simplified 007 would be a little "mehh", and a true 007 with all the toys seems unlikely.
Lord MFC Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 All of these?  it's probably the third batch or something...if not...that's strange...  no no no no different one... those wernt there... i should have photoed it
Dave. Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 I'd love to see them do Mirror Kaoss. Thats my favorite, just ahead of blackie (or black ed which is what matt apparently calls it)
MegaEBoy Posted April 23, 2011 Author Posted April 23, 2011 i dont see a 007 in those. /blindness  Sorry for being unclear, I meant I saw a 007, but not in that picture
MegaEBoy Posted April 23, 2011 Author Posted April 23, 2011 I'd love to see them do Mirror Kaoss. Thats my favorite, just ahead of blackie (or black ed which is what matt apparently calls it) Â Yeah, That or the M1D1
