Sterling by Music Man John Petrucci JP70NB Stealth Black 7-String Electric Guitar with Deluxe Gig Bag

General

The Ernie Ball Music Man JP7 laid the groundwork for many of Dream Theater's most iconic tracks, and in the form of the JP70 you can gain the same feel and seven-string range as the original for far less cash. This John Petrucci signature seven-string has all of the comfort and playability you would expect, from the lightweight solid nyatoh body to the rounded contouring, horn bevelling and the snug feel of a deep forearm scoop. Deluxe gig bag included.

The Sterling by Music Man John Petrucci JP70: The Professional

The JP70 has been finished with a relatively wide 49.5 millimetre nut, supporting spacious string-spacing and broad vibratos without fear of note-death. The extra space also makes it easier to grab more complex chords without fretting the wrong strings and, since the fretboard has been given a mega-flat 16 inch radius, licks and solos have a light and near-effortless feel beneath the fret-hand. Add on that extra low-B string, and your rhythms and riffs are given some tight and brutal low-end.
