Title: Hugh Manson - M One D One guitar
Post by: tewboss on March 02, 2006, 12:53:39 AM: its reviewed in Guitarist this month. it looks very nice and has a Nailbomb in the bridge position. the front has a cracked glass finished which looks really cool.

The origin of "M One D One" is an in-joke in their shop.

It's short for "Mod 1/ Design 1", " - Version 1", or " - Build 1" respectively.

Post by: tewboss on March 03, 2006, 12:38:15 AM: the design is slightly different to Matt's guitars from what Hugh said in the article - i think its to do with the shoulder of the guitar.
