As a massive Nolly fan, I can honestly say that you made the right move working with him. His understanding of sonics and what makes up a great instrument is truly NEXT level. Hope to get my hands on one of these beautiful guitars at some point. Congrats to you all at Manson!
Lmao y u so cynical tho? Also this is so far removed from a strat body shape that I don't even think I would consider it a super strat. Maybe more akin to a parker pdf or vik duality. Even if it was "just like everyone else" that's probably for a good reason - we've figured out a lot of what does and doesn't work for the electric guitar.
@@RubyRoks I don't have to imagine since it happened! 😉 I don't check to see how old comments are I came across it so I replied, what do you want me to say?
@@RubyRoks also another god awful take - sure it might vaguely resemble an avenger if it was the most gaudy, trash ever covered in 5 pounds of abalone. For the record the avenger is kind of a cool shape if the rest of the guitar is specced not terribly.
Looks pretty nice and modern and its great that it comes with the polymath set, which is probably its best feature. However, I feel like the high price will hurt this models popularity.
@@Professional.Bro.777 I ended up cancelling the order honestly man. Got cold feet after months and months of waiting and especially after another 7 I wanted popped up.
It seems people like Nolly gravitate together. Anything I watch from Nolly instantly calms me when it comes to production and absorbing information. Everyone else in this video was the same. Kudos - amazing work!
You obviously haven’t played a 2900 guitar. And don’t give me that “any guitar can play like any expensive guitar”. It’s just not true. If you want quality then you have to pay for it. No, not all expensive instruments are quality. But a high quality instrument will come with the price tag.
Quality. I can't afford one yet... However I won't bitch about it. I look forward for more and more affordable guitars in the future and of course, without losing quality in the process. Yamaha, PRS, Schecter, Manson, Solar are some of the companies that are actually doing it well.
@@jobelewis6416 This is a wide misconception. I would argue this has nothing to do with the length behind the nut but more so with the break angle. And this is exactly why a normal headstock is how it is. Remember string trees?
@@delamar6199 It’s not, this has been tested. Theres a direct correlation between total length of string and string tension. There’s also been tests that suggest the sharper the break angles the more rugged the string will feel but I can’t remember much about that one
I absolutely love the shape of the body and the headstock. I really enjoy seeing the production process, it shows the amount of love these people have for the craft. Can't wait for a lefty model of the 7 string to release!
I had no idea Matt Bellamy was an OWNER in this company. I though he just played them because they're cool guitars.
Whoa, the guy from Muse owns the company?!
Yeah he bought them out back in 2019
Manson always made his custom guitars in the day, it makes sense once he got pretty rich to purchase them company he likes so much

Reminds me of his older Vik guitars
Yes i agree!
Nolly always played sick guitars only
I love how ORYX is a destiny reference.
Just like mishas invective amp. They also did the music for the sepiks perfected strike if I’m not mistaken. So freaking cool.
I got the reference to Oryx right away but I just thought it must be a coincidence. This post just put a big effing smile on my face!
Is there a left handed model?
Great looking guitars!
So ...Nolley is a Destiny fan? What do you think he mains? I'm guessing warlock.
I'm surprised Nolly uses a 12" fret radius than 20" knowing he came from Periphery who's guitarists use flat fret radius.
How do you guys feel about adding Graphite Reinforcement rods to your necks?
Looks sick
"We took a strat shape, made it edgy, and put humbuckers in it. Just like everyone else"

Yeah its pricy...but i bet my ass off it will be worth it
It’s not that it’s just pricey, It’s pricey for what it is
I thought they would be wayyy more expensive, but $700 for a guitar with these specs is a steal
@@justevan877 thats just the initial deposit. The total cost is £2899 or $3950.
@@sirkenzington8825 Its unrealistically expensive.
I’ve caved, ordered a black 7.
Super excited 😊
Hey mate, did you get your guitar? How is it?

The finish of that guitar is simply smashing!
Really cool to see a new chapter for Manson's with Nolly. In the market for a new modern guitar, so will definitely be keeping an eye on the Oryx!
😎
I still don´t get why people buy 2900 guitar

hello to you friends) at the present time I wonder if it is possible to order a manson to Russia?
Amazing guitar but why always reverse headstocks? :D
Longer total length of the lower strings adds string tension to the ones that need it the most and keeps the higher strings nice to solo on

Would love to see these with different top woods and finishes!
Looks really great! I'd take a 7 with an evertune ;)
Amazing result MGW team, I look forward to see this new design progress and evolve.
Sir Arsene Wenger 👍
It surely must be a nice sounding guitar. Also it looks amazing
kinda remknds me of parker fly... I love it though! are you planning to release a floyd loadeed version?
Or the older Vik guitar. Nolly cut ties with them after that incident.
Nice story, Cheers 🍻
Looks fantastic!

It’s a vik duality lookalike…
@@tejasvinashok6915 You say that like its a bad thing.
@@JetsetRM They float it as this ground-up design that's unique and never seen before... smh
do these come to america?
Yes, we ship to America
I was worried about the price point. Then I went to the website. 500 is a dang good deal.
It is 2899. 500 is just the initial deposit.
😆
I did get confused about thar at first too, so I can understand that confusion lol
500 will get you a new pickup set today lol
Now….2K for being CNC machined guitar?…i don’t think so…drop it to 1.6K…
Hi boomer
2k? These things are $3600
