Ernie Ball Music Man John Petrucci JP15 7-String Guitar, Sahara Burst Flame Top
Player's Perspective
The JP15 commemorates the first 15 years of John Petrucci's collaboration with Music Man, but it has turned out to be one of the most enduring and popular JP models to date!
It's just like the JP13, but with an African Okoume body and a gorgeous roasted flame maple neck. This guitar has that coveted Petrucci feel: The fretboard is perfectly consistent all the way up and down, and the strings practically play themselves. Bends are easy and intonate very well, and lightning fast runs come out cleanly and with plenty of articulation. The sound is clear and powerful, equally conducive to walls of distortion and crystal cleans. Upper register access is totally unrestricted thanks to a comfortable neck heel and smooth lower bout cut.
This axe is perfect for the Petrucci fan or anyone who's looking for a high-end, high-octane shredder that'll hold up for lifetimes!
