Music Man John Petrucci JP15 Sahara Burst Flame #G95851

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

Slim Okoumé Body & Toasted Maple

The aim of the woods used in this JP15 is to provide the lightest possible weight, the greatest possible resonance and a stunning appearance. Accordingly, Music Man relies on a body made of Okoumé, which is finished with a noble Figured Roasted Maple Top. Also the neck and the fretboard of the JP15 with 24 stainless steel frets in medium jumbo format are made of roasted flamed maple and are fivefold bolted to the body via the contoured neck heel to elicit a good response with maximum sustain. 

DiMarzio Illuminator Humbucker

As a true John Petrucci model, the JP15 Sahara Burst features two signature humbuckers wound especially for John. Two DiMarzio Illuminator humbuckers wound by US pickup giant DiMarzio are used in the neck and bridge positions, giving 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 control, up to 20db of extra gain are available to give the amp sound additional assertiveness when needed. 

Custom John Petrucci Floating Tremolo with Fishman Ghost Piezo Tailpieces

The hardware features of Music Man's John Petrucci JP15 Sahara Burst Flame Gitarre 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 fitted with Fishman Powerbridge Ghost piezo tailpieces to make clear and airy acoustic tones readily available. 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.
