London, UK (June 4, 2013) -- Manson Guitar Works are pleased to offer an opportunity to own one of the most unique production MB-1 guitars on the planet, with all profits going to charity. The Red Glitter Matthew Bellamy MB-1 signature guitar, signed by all members of Muse, was selected from the extremely limited number of instruments made available each year, specifically to raise funds for the Progressive Supra Nuclear Palsy Association and Marie Curie at the suggestion of Manson Guitar Works director Adrian Ashton. “This is a fantastic opportunity for someone to own what is already an extremely limited guitar but with the very rare and added exclusivity of the band’s signatures present as well. I’m very grateful for the band signing the guitar and to Matthew for letting one of these great guitars being made available for my two chosen charities.”

As the pictures show, the guitar is a Red Glitter MB-1, which will come complete with hard case, hand-signed certificate of authenticity and also sports exclusive black custom hardware, making it the top spec model available. The last autographed Manson Guitar by all three members of Muse fetched £33,000 when Muse collected a Silver Clef award at the Nordoff Robbins charity awards.The MB-1 guitar currently for offer was signed before the band’s performance in Los Angeles earlier this year. All profits will be divided between the two chosen charities and Manson Guitar Works are inviting private bids between now and the end of July to conclude the sale of the guitar.
