STERLING BY MUSIC MAN John Petrucci JP157 MN Trans Black Satin
7-string signature electric guitar with roasted maple neck and active boost, including gigbag
The Sterling by Music Man John Petrucci JP157 MN Trans Black Satin is based on the famous Music Man JP15 and offers almost all the features of this exclusive 7-string signature electric guitar at an extremely tempting price. While the Nyatoh body wears an elegant curly maple veneer, the bolt-on neck is made of Roasted Maple. On the guitar amplifier two humbuckers with switchable active boost promise versatile guitar sounds for rock and metal. High-quality hardware in the form of a modern tremolo and precise locking tuners round out the features of the John Petrucci JP157 MN Trans Black Satin from Sterling by Music Man.
Sterling by Music Man JP150: Flamed Maple and Roasted Maple
High-quality ingredients are used in the construction of the Sterling by Music Man JP157 John Petrucci Signature. For example, the heavily contoured body is crafted from Nyatoh wood and finished with an elegant Royal Red maple veneer. The extremely robust Roasted Maple neck, on the other hand, is fastened particularly securely with five screws. The flat D-profile also creates optimal playing characteristics up to the 24th fret of the Roasted Maple fingerboard.
Two humbuckers with active boost, high-quality hardware
The electric sound of the Sterling by Music Man JP157 John Petrucci Signature electric guitar is transformed by two hot-wound humbuckers, which with their tight sound skillfully set the stage for both fat riffs and complex solos. In the clean channel, chords and melodies are also presented harmonically. The active electronics offer the possibility to boost the signal by 12 dB and to elicit additional gain and volume reserves from the guitar amplifier. Furthermore, the Sterling by Music Man JP157 MN Trans Black Satin 7-String electric guitar is equipped with the Sterling Modern Tremolo, which, in conjunction with the precise locking tuners, allows for detune-free whammy bar applications.
