Product information - MUSIC MAN John Petrucci JP16

Signature electric guitar with DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy pickups, active boost and Floyd Rose tremolo, including case

With the Music Man John Petrucci JP16 Dream Theater string magician John Petrucci and the guitar manufacturer from San Luis Obispo in California present the latest interpretation of the successful Signature electric guitar, which combines design aspects of the first Petrucci models with interesting details. The electric guitar features a light Linde body with Contour forearm and a Roasted Maple neck, two DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy pickups with active custom preamp and a Floyd Rose tremolo.

MUSIC MAN John Petrucci JP16 Black Lava

The Music Man John Petrucci JP16 combines the design of the original Petrucci Signature guitar with interesting features to a versatile metal guitar.

MUSIC MAN John Petrucci JP16 Black Lava Scooped Forearm Contour

The Scooped Forearm Contour promises a comfortable playing position of the Music Man JP16.

Classic lime body and roasted maple

For the construction of the Music Man JP16 the Californian guitar builders rely on a traditional yet special wood combination. The body is made of light lime, which strengthens the primary tone of the electric guitar with a rich bass foundation, while the screwed neck of "Roasted Maple" and the ebony fingerboard add a crisp attack and brilliant highs. In addition, the special thermal treatment of the maple, in which the wood is baked in a vacuum, promises increased stability and climatic insensitivity of the neck. The neck has a particularly flat D-profile and a wax/oil finish, while the heavily contoured armrest promotes a comfortable playing position, so that every riff and solo can easily get out of your fingers when playing the virtuoso guitar between the 24 stainless steel frets.

MUSIC MAN John Petrucci JP16 Black Lava Pickups

DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy was developed especially for Music Man JP16 and is connected to an active preamp.

DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy Humbucker and Custom Preamp

The electric tone conversion of the Music Man John Petrucci JP 16 is done by two DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy humbuckers, which were specially designed for this model by the New York pickup guru and meet Petrucci's high sound standards. The pickups deliver a warm sound that has been specially matched to the combination of Linde body and Floyd Rose tremolo. With a pronounced low-end foundation, a broad mid-range and tight highs, the Humbuckers perform solos and riffs, whereby even at the speed of light every touch and tone is represented with precise articulation. But also at the clean amplifier the versatile pickups can fully convince, where they present chords with harmonic warmth and perfect string separation, while melodies roll out of the loudspeakers. In addition, the Music Man JP 16 is equipped with an active custom preamp that provides +20 dB boost, freeing up additional gain and volume reserves for solo passages.

Premiere for the Floyd Rose Tremolo

Another special feature of the Music Man JP16 is the Floyd Rose 1000 Series Pro Tremolo, which is used for the first time on a Petrucci Signature electric guitar. With its proven double locking system and the well-known smooth handling, the tremolo realizes bloodcurdling dive bombs and aggressively screeching squeals without damaging the tuning of the guitar. In addition, the compact headstock Schaller M6LA tuners in typical 4+2 arrangement ensure smooth tunings and comfortable string changes. Of course, the Music Man JP16 is delivered in a particularly sturdy Music Man hard case, which protects the electric guitar even in the hardest touring everyday life.
