A Signature Built for Stage Sounds: The MBM Spirit at Cort

The MBM-2H-SUS belongs to the world of performance-oriented signature models, where every detail aims for efficiency: immediate access to tonal shifts, expressive electronics, and modern playing sensations. With this Cort electric guitar signature Matt Bellamy, the goal is clear: to switch from a massive, articulate sound to sharp effects while maintaining a reliable foundation for both stage and studio.

Who Is It For, and Which Styles?

This guitar primarily targets intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking creative electronics and distinctive tones without being confined to a single genre. It excels in alternative rock, modern metal, industrial, prog, and any approaches alternating tight rhythms, sustained leads, and cut effects. The "Kill" button and Sustainiac also encourage experimental playing, atmospheres, and highly dynamic transitions.

Sound Characteristics

The basswood body provides a balanced foundation, with present mids and a smooth response, ideal for handling rich distortion without becoming harsh. The maple neck adds attack and clear articulation, useful for precise palm mutes as well as open chords. The laurel fingerboard complements the setup with a slightly warmer feel in the upper spectrum. On the electronics side, the dual Manson pickup delivers a dense and powerful sound, while the Sustainiac allows note sustain extension and spectacular harmonic emergence, perfect for singing leads and near-synthetic textures. The "Kill" button adds an immediate rhythmic weapon, and the 3-position selector facilitates quick changes during play.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To stay as close as possible to the original specifications, a set of D'Addario EXL110 strings (10-46 gauge) is perfectly suitable. A standard strap and plectrums of various thicknesses are also recommended to adapt the attack to the very dynamic sounds of this signature model.
