![]() ![]() There’s also a kill-pot on the top horn of the instrument, allowing for stuttering, on-off effects. The neck pickup is now a humbucker, allowing for thicker, more powerful sound as a match to the aggressive bridge pickup. Yet, especially for a signature model, it’s mightily approachably-priced. ![]() It’s changed from Bellamy’s previous signature models to more closely mirror the guitars Bellamy plays on stage. The signature guitar for Muse frontman Matt Bellamy, this angular single-cut has been produced under licence with Cort. The S521-MOL also comes with a price tag almost as thin as its body, meaning it could be a great guitar for a beginner, or an affordable way to expand your tonal palette to include the more metal side of things. A string-through fixed bridge also provides some solid sustain and more precise intonation tweaking. And to some extent, it is, but its thin natural finish on both the body and neck and no-frills design means this guitar wouldn’t find itself out of place in any player’s collection, regardless of their penchant for sweep-picking.Ī deep cutaway for the lower horn does allow easy access to all 24 frets if that is your intention, however. With an extremely thin design, slick maple neck and dual Quantum humbucker loadout you’d be forgiven for thinking this is aimed squarely at shredders. While it might not be the definitive Jazzmaster experience, it’s a great low-mid-priced entry point for the world of Fender offsets. For some subtle chord modulations and lead wobbles, there’s a vintage-esque tremolo bridge, but other than that this guitar is a simple affair, with a master tone and master volume control and three-way pickup selector switch. ![]()
