Ernie Ball Music Man John Petrucci SOLD

 

New York guitarist John Petrucci has been playing guitar since he was 12 and is, of course, the driving force behind the critically acclaimed ‘Dream Theater’ band. John’s highly developed technique demands a guitar that is up for endless touring and the wide array of tones that are demanded from this eclectic group.

The Music Man Petrucci model was designed by the engineers at Ernie Ball in conjunction with John himself and includes a proprietary trem bridge with steel saddles, custom designed DiMarzio pickups, custom neck profile, locking tuners, 5-bolt never-shift neck joint; and unique arm channel contour to help anchor your picking arm!!! The instrument that I’m reviewing today also features the cool Mystic Dream “flip-flop” finish that changes from deep emerald to a rich deep purple depending on the light refraction!
