This is a Brand New Music Man
John Petrucci Signature Model 7 string guitar in Sterling Silver that
is loaded with matching headstock, inlay upgrade and piezo pickup.
Beautifully Figured Birds Eye Maple Neck and
Music Man Factory Hardshell Case.
John has been
pushing the envelope of progressive metal since the late eighties, and
the DiMarzio® LiquiFire™ Neck Model, DiMarzio® Crunch Lab™ Bridge
Model.
He used them
throughout Dream Theater's tenth studio album, "Black Clouds and
Silver Linings" released June 23.
Since the mid 1990s, John's neck pickup sound has been based on either
the standard Air Norton™ or the custom version in his Ernie Ball®
guitars. The LiquiFire™ has several significant differences. Its
treble response is warmer and smoother while bass response is tighter
and brighter. The total sound has a more focused voice, which works
equally well for highly overdriven solos and complex, clean chords.
Playing one of these guitars, it is easy to
see why John uses these guitars exclusively. John worked with
Ernie Ball to create what he considers the ultimate guitar in
playability tone and looks. These guitars absolutely have it
all. The sculpted neck joint makes reaches the higher frets
effortless, the contoured top provides incredible pick arm support for
hyper-speed picked runs, the perfectly finished frets and neck work
make legato lines flow off of the neck. The custom Dimarzio
pickups are amazing, through a high gain amplifier solos and chords
have sustain and clarity, beautiful clean sound and the piezo going
out in stereo is almost the ultimate addition. If you have any
questions about the sound, pickup a copy of Dream Theater's Awake.
This guitar lends itself to so many styles it truly is one of the
finest guitars ever produced.
The guitar comes with DiMarzio pickups so the
tone is incredible. With the low B you can add a whole new dimension
of tones to your chord structure, so many possibilities beyond your
typical 7 string guitars.
The Music Man John Petrucci
7-String Electric Guitar has a maple neck featuring an adjustable
truss rod and 5-bolt mounting to the basswood body for perfect
alignment and no slipping. A sculpted neck joint allows free access to
upper frets. Its rosewood fretboard has 24 wide, high-profile frets.
Schaller locking tuners and custom John Petrucci tremolo complete the
hardware. 2 Custom DiMarzio humbucking pickups were specially designed
for Petrucci. 3-way selector has a custom center-position
configuration.
