Explanation
“I want to perfectly reproduce those blazing-fast phrases and tight, intricate tones played by John Petrucci of Dream Theater—down to the last detail!” But are you struggling because standard guitars have limitations when playing in the higher frets, or because you can’t perfectly balance the intense distortion of an electric guitar with the delicate resonance of an acoustic guitar using just one instrument?
John Petrucci is the guitarist for Dream Theater, the undisputed king of the progressive metal scene. Since signing an endorsement deal with Ernie Ball Music Man in 2000, this 6-string signature model has supported his astonishing technique and uncompromising tone for a quarter of a century.Players around the world unanimously agree that “if you want to master technical playing, you’ll ultimately end up with this JP6”—its level of perfection is simply unmatched. This is the pinnacle of gear, born from the combination of John Petrucci’s meticulous attention to detail and Music Man’s cutting-edge craftsmanship. The Ernie Ball Music Man John Petrucci Signature JP6 boasts, needless to say, overwhelming playability.
It meticulously incorporates every element required for professional performances. It features a Slim & Speed neck that feels like it’s hugging your hand, with an astonishingly slim and precisely crafted neck shape that eliminates all stress. Combined with a smooth joint that facilitates easy access to the high frets, it allows you to execute ultra-fast arpeggios and sweep picking techniques with complete ease. It perfectly handles everything from tight, punchy bass tones to brilliant high frequencies that cut right through an ensemble. Even when driven hard with high gain, the sound remains crisp, and the individual notes of complex tension chords come through clearly. A piezo pickup is built into the bridge. With a single touch, you can switch from intense, driven electric tones to a transparent, authentic acoustic sound. It features separate output jacks for the electric and piezo pickups. This allows for independent amp outputs for the magnetic and piezo pickups, expanding your tone-shaping possibilities infinitely.
This guitar is highly recommended not only for Dream Theater fans but also for guitarists who want to “perfectly express everything from intense high-gain riffs to delicate acoustic parts with a single guitar” or who want to “play technical phrases without any stress.”
Evolving alongside John Petrucci’s legacy, this guitar represents the pinnacle of modern electric guitars. Experience its unparalleled playability and the infinite tonal variations unleashed by the piezo pickup.
