Music Man John Petrucci JP15 7-String Sahara Burst Flame #F95147

A particularly lightweight interpretation of the famous John Petrucci signature model, the Music Man John Petrucci JP15 7-String Sahara Burst Flame #F95147 offers a wide-ranging tonal spectrum and the JP's usual slim and ergonomic handling. The seven-string instrument from his band Dream Theater's fretboard wizard relies on powerful DiMarzio humbuckers, a custom 2-point tremolo system with built-in piezo pickup, and the stunning look of toasted flamed maple in a classy Sahara Burst finish. The Music Man John Petrucci JP15 7 Sahara Burst Flame comes with a sturdy Music Man hardshell case.

Slim okoumé body & toasted curly maple

The goal of the woods used in this Music Man JP15 7-String is to come up with the lightest possible weight, the greatest possible resonance and a stunning appearance. Accordingly, Music Man uses a body made of Okoumé, which is finished with a noble Figured Roasted Maple Top. The neck and the fretboard of the John Petrucci JP15 7 with 24 stainless steel frets in medium jumbo format are also made of roasted maple and are fivefold bolted to the body via the contoured neck heel in order to elicit a good response with maximum sustain.

DiMarzio Illuminator 7 Humbucker

As a true John Petrucci model, the JP15 7-String features two of his signature humbuckers wound especially for John. Two DiMarzio Illuminator 7 humbuckers wound by US pickup giant DiMarzio are used in the neck and bridge position and give the instrument its famously powerful and clear sound that expertly showcases juicy leads and complex riffs. Thanks to the additional boost function, which is housed in the push/push function of the volume knob, up to 20db of extra gain are furthermore available to give the amp sound additional assertiveness if required.

Custom John Petrucci Floating Tremolo with Fishman Ghost Piezo Tailpieces

The hardware features of the Music Man John Petrucci JP15 7-String Sahara Burst Flame also reflect John's preferred setup and impress with absolute functionality. As a welcome addition to the sound of the magnetic pickups, the Custom John Petrucci Music Man Floating Tremolo is equipped with Fishman Powerbridge Ghost piezo tail pieces to make clear and airy acoustic sounds available at any time. At the rear, the instrument offers extensive fine-tuning options in the form of trim pots for Mag Boost, Piezo 2-band EQ and Mag/Piezo Mix, while the separate outputs can output the outgoing pickup signals either separately or in the mix.
