harry_jordan's Manson Music Gear Setup

I got one of these for around £200 second hand. It plays great, the stock pickups sound decent and the stock tuners hold tuning well. I learned to play on this, and I wouldn't have chosen anything else.

This was a collaboration between Manson and Bare Knuckle that was the primary pickup used for the recording of the Muse album Black Holes and Revelations. It defines the sound of the album, while still managing to be suitable for other sounds and genres. It has a bright top end, plenty of cut due to a solid mid voicing, and gives a fairly tight low end that lets you play modern styles of metal.
