Sterling by Music Man JP150 John Petrucci Signature Sahara Burst

General

The Sterling JP150 is a very well priced version of the Music Man JP15. Over time, this guitar has come ever closer to perfection thanks to the collaboration with John Petrucci himself. The perfectly balanced body is made of African mahogany and features comfortable contours. It has a Sahara Burst lacquer that contrasts beautifully with the maple fretboard. An active volume boost of 12 decibels is another notable feature on this instrument. If you love face melting solos as much as the man himself, then this feature is a worthy addition that will help you blast right through the noisiest mixes.

JP150: a precision instrument

The Sterling by Music Man JP150 is a very stable guitar. Five screws connect the neck to the body for perfect alignment that is fixed firmly in place. A rounded heel ensures unlimited access to the higher frets. The 2-point tremolo with six flat saddles allows you to add vibrato effects to your playing without having to worry about any issues with tuning. The practical Locking Tuners are also partly responsible for this.
