Comparing it with the original, it makes matt's shape look a bit dodgy...

Yeah, but the shape of the original is a little different than the other mansons. The top horn seems to be... "failed". Or maybe that's just an impression.

And the frenchman's mirror manson is now at 4900 euros

 

french man 4900 euros!

 

That just became a whole lot more tempting, but I have the MB-2 and two customs coming up... plus I have no idea who this guy is, so unless he puts it on ebay, I probably won't start scrambling for some extra money

 

I do regret selling some of the stuff that bought me the chrome and the rust relic, but it was worth it still

The price is still too high imo. We don't know the state of the guitar, and even if it seems to be fine on the pictures, they have been taken about 2 years ago (maybe more).

I don't know - it's not much more than a new MB-1, and has loads of extras installed with a full mirror finish. No fuzz factory though... maybe I can haggle him down

 

That's true about the pictures though. And just look at the strings on the headstock :noey:

I would say 4000€ is a fair price, given that Manson do not make Mattocasters anymore (except the signature guitars).

 

But if you can afford it (or negociate the price), BUY IT. I would prefer to see that guitar in your hands. This guy is just a... If you can understand french you'll see what I mean : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTgGlyOjuvw

:LOL: No, but I think I know what you mean anyway

 

That's the main problem though - I'd have no way to communicate with him! it seems he speaks some english, but still

 

Maybe if it's still available (it will be, I'm sure) within the next couple of months. This would mean I'd have all but one of the escapees... I don't know where the last one is.

Oh ? There is another ?!

 

I suppose he speaks some english (but bad english like 90% of french people... including me ^^). But if not, I can help you to translate.

Yeah, this one - it was made around the same time as the M1D1. It's out there somewhere!

I think that was actually the last one to be built. The guy with the other one thinks there are only two that escaped, but it's five

 

-rust relic

-chrome

-cracked mirror

-french man's mirror

-M1D1's cousin

 

Mansons pretty much confirmed that when I asked them earlier this year

 

Although I suppose you can count the two matt black ones that were thrown into the crowd on this tour. And maybe the DL-1 prototype

No way they give you the name of the guy who bought the M1D1's cousin ? ^^

Oh, no - they confirmed that it was only 5 that got away. There was a rumor that there was an exact copy of one of Matt's guitars (007 I think?) built back in 2001 or something, but I didn't ask them about that. I think I read that on this board a while back, so it probably wasn't true!

It's simon neil's new one

 

It is? I know he was listening to Biffy, but that doesn't mean it's for Simon Niel

 

Looks like an MA guitar to me, the MB guitars normally have the lower horn more of a point, this looks more rounded off :)

 

+1

No idea, it sold in 2006, and as far as I know, it never went up for sale after that

hmm...I'm one step closer to finding out who owns it.

 

with french man 4900 euros and this, I will own ALL the escaped MoCs

 

From Tim:- "its an MA with piezo floyd and sustainiac system. Available #forsale" :)

 

Yeah, I think he posted that one a while back actually. Plus Simon Niel doesn't seem like a floyd rose type of guy

 

Or something
