An MT-I Designed for Efficiency: From "Obsidian Grey" to "Black Satin"
In line with Mick Thomson's minimalist ethos, this MT-I Black Satin continues the philosophy of the original "Obsidian Grey" finish version: straightforward, no frills, with ergonomics tailored for modern rhythm playing. The mahogany body provides warmth and sustain, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard enhances attack precision. The whole setup, complemented by Hipshot hardware, clearly aims for reliability both in the studio and on stage.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
This 6-string electric guitar is primarily aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists seeking a signature model oriented towards modern metal, djent, hardcore, and heavy rock. The long 25.5" / 648 mm scale length helps maintain tight lows and clean palm mutes, while the 42 mm / 1.65" nut width and Thin U profile promote speed and endurance in rhythm parts. With its single bridge pickup, the MT-I stays focused on efficiency and precision without distraction.
Sound
At the heart of its tonal character, the Fishman Fluence Signature Mick Thomson bridge pickup delivers a powerful, highly defined, and low-noise output, ideal for heavy distortion and down-tuned playing. The 3-position selector allows access to the 3 voices of the Fluence system, enabling a switch from tight modern tones to more open textures. The volume control with push/pull coil split adds a coil-splitting option for increased bite and articulation on cleaner or crunch sounds. The mahogany and Macassar ebony combination supports mids, projection, and sustain, while the Hipshot High Mass bridge improves tuning stability and intonation during aggressive attacks.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To preserve the original feel, prioritize electric guitar string sets in 10-46 gauge. A sturdy strap and a stable guitar stand are also simple and effective daily complements, with the case already included for transport.
