james90 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 What do you think? Looks like it might have an ebony fretboard, but I can't tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomrulez Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I like it, I'd say ebony also. Any news on the price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Nope haven't seen anything about that. I wonder what else they have on display. There was a silver MA in one of the pictures from earlier this week, but I'm not sure what else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 It's got a black piece of paper in it...what else is supposed to be different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 looks alright! i was hoping for an original santa finish or something though Didn't they already say no to that, as they wanted to keep the originals unique? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Yep. . Black piece of paper, black knobs, and black saddles - it's not revolutionary! I don't know what people were expecting though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Yep. Black piece of paper, black knobs, and black saddles - it's not revolutionary! I don't know what people were expecting though! Well it was still going to be an MB-1, so they couldn't change THAT much I guess. I do wonder if the black custom hardware this has is an option on the standard MB-1s though And yeah, here's what they said in the email that was sent out (I requested to be notified for all new product releases ) Please note on the red glitter we can't add extra glitter or do an exact "Santa" replica (that's Matt's actual guitar) because we insist on those remaining exclusive to the artist.

Bs Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Yeah, this was the similar comment on the third run. Also, on the red glitter we can't add extra glitter or do an exact "Santa" replica (that's Matt's actual guitar) because we insist on those remaining a bit special. You would too if you'd won a Grammy. Apparently they use the same amount of glitter on all of them, it just depends where most of it comes out as to how distinctive it looks I guess. We seemed to get pretty lucky on the third run though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seemed to get pretty lucky on the third run though. But what about the headstock on mine? that seems to have an unusual amount, but I haven't seen many of the red ones from that run (only Matt's, but there aren't really any detailed pictures or anything) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant for each run though, supposedly they put the same amount of glitter for each guitar, and then it just depends where it ends up. Was it yours that also seemed to have more on the back than than the front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it yours that also seemed to have more on the back than than the front? Yeah a little, but it's not a massive difference. And I get what you mean, but it's a bit weird as it seems there is a pattern (like the original red glitter), so I imagine there is some control over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Well, yeah, but I just mean if they have the same amount of glitter for each one, it's going to be a bit different on each where the most comes out, even if they're trying to do a general pattern. I don't know exactly how they do it though. The only place mine doesn't have much is the forearm contour which works well as obviously you can't see it when I'm playing, haha!

We seemed to get pretty lucky on the third run though. That's the image they gave us (with disclaimer) for the first run before any guitars were built No idea what the MB-1Ss will look like, but I imagine they'll have more than the first batch, so rust_relic can't complain at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rust_relic Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 so rust_relic can't complain at least Me? Although to be fair it all depends on the lighting, this is the same guitar http://www.musewiki.org/Manson_Red_Glitter_2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 yeah true, I don't know what the first red MB-1s looked like in real life. Would you say this is a good example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rust_relic Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Looks a bit sparse there compared to how I remember it, looked better indoors actually It also looked better before I changed the hardware on it every week and some bloke tested his pen out on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazybobbles Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 i never judge the amount of glitter because it all depends on how you took the photo lightwise. needs more white balance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
