[NAMM] Matthew Bellamy signs a Cort guitar

The Cort MBC1 was designed, developed and revised by british luthier Manson Guitar Works, in close collaboration with Cort and Muse’s frontman. Manson has been working with Matthew Bellamy for 20 years, his participation in the project is therefore quite logic, as they also provide the  pickups.

The MBC1 is based on the Cort MB1-S and includes a discrete Kill button that allows for creating interesting sound effects.

• Solid basswood body
• Bolt-on maple neck

• Adjustable bridge and stop bar tailpiece
• Matching headstock with Matthew Bellamy’s signature and Manson logo on the back
