This Cort MBM-2H is a seriously cool instrument, clearly inspired by Matthew Bellamy's unique style. The Sustainiac is the star here, allowing for those signature Muse-like sounds, and the build quality is surprisingly good for the price point. It's ideal for players looking for a modern, versatile guitar with a touch of experimental flair.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Sustainiac is integrated, offering a more natural, organic sustain without the noise or latency of a pedal. It requires experimentation to master, but the results can be very rewarding.
It’s a subtle difference, offering a slight flatter feel in the center with more pronounced shoulders – comfortable for many, but might feel unusual initially.
While it shares design elements, direct compatibility with Manson parts isn't guaranteed; some modifications might be required for full interchangeability.
