@@thomasgendron3875 Yes I have. Jason Richardson is an incredible guitar player, and underrated. The thing is that I enjoy Dream Theater over Jason Richardson. People have opinions.
2funny greek & Moose LM head off ! True comments, Trooch is built like the proverbial brick shithouse mate, he's a manimal, and I for one certainly wouldn't get lippy with the Troochenegger!?. Superb guitar also, this pre-Cambrian axeronomist with 42yrs on the rosewood knows a decent weapon when he sees & hears one... the Trooch MusicMan series are the ducks nuts.
+Novron He was taken out accidentally as he was too close to JP when he showed him a new solo riff...boom, head gone....what a way to go though... Rumor has it that JP stood over his limp body and said "I mustache you a question but I'll shave it for later"...then laughed and left....weird right?
Awesome guitar, In fact all the EBMM JP guitars are amazing. I'm currently saving money for a JP6. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these masterpieces!
I'll start with saying that the JP models are probably the most easy playing guitars ever. To some extent too good. They don't fight back at all which some may find a bad thing. It's like wiping your arse with silk. But there are a couple of things I'd like to see some where down the line, maybe 20th anniversary guitar or some other limited edition models. Sort of a retro model if you will. One with a Floyd Rose tremolo and/or the famous Picasso paint job he had on his Ibanez's. I know John has said that the JP birdge they made for the guitars is many times better than a Floyd in everyway. But still it would be cool to get different feel to the guitar without changing the essence of it. And the Picasso finish (several of them) is so iconic from the early DT days that I bet people would want a Music Man guitar with it. As third thing if this was to ever be possible would be to use the original Dimarzio Steve's Special and Air Norton pickup set he famously used in his Ibanez's to further deliver the pre-Music Man era feel. Just a thought.
@@skrete Well they did do a JP model with a Floyd ROse tremolo, so 1 of 3 things did get done. But I still have some hope that the Picasso graphic will enter the picture at some point.
The lighting is misleading at times which make the frets look gold. I just ordered one of these riiiiiight as ernie ball closed their doors for coronavirus. Personally, I wish it came with gold tone frets, along with the crunch lab "bar" and pole pieces being gold rather than black, and silver, respectively. At this point though, I'll be happy to just get the thing.... I sure hope everyone in the Ernie Ball family, including Johnny P. are all well and safe at home and healthy and Corona free....well, a fridge full of Corona beer wouldn't hurt at this terribly depressing time.
Does the alder give any advantages over basswood? I've dreamed about a JP6 for a while, but I'd rather get what JP actually uses in studio and on tour... but once you buy something, it's always replaced by something else.. 2 months after I finally bought a Mesa Mark V, the JP2C was announced LOL
+pz17 Right now he is in deep deep love with the Majesty. Just keep in mind that the Majesty only has one TRS output unlike the others that give you the option to run two mono or one stereo. But that's it, the Majesty. He plays the JP16 on tour for a couple of songs but I think that's for promotion. Watch the rig breakdown video with his tech Maddi. You'll see everything there. So far my fav has been the JP15...which shocked the hell out of me but I haven't connected to a guitar like that since the first JP6. Hope that helps
If you mean 4:26, it sounds like an arrangement of the clean section in Glasgow kiss. Not exactly identical, but I think it has the same chord progression
i absolutely love this guitar, but i can't for the life of me figure out why they put the switch directly in front of the strumming hand. it was the ONLY thing keeping me from buying it. i just cannot understand the logic behind this..
He said in interviews that he designed some of his music Man guitars to his playing style so he's probably user to strumming differently and not hitting the switch because. But yeah that switch is definitely in wrong place for sure lol.
That’s honestly the best position for the pickup selector. It’s right there easy to flick without moving your hand away from the strings. I wish more guitars did that. If you are worried about hitting it just practice more.
When I took one of these to my local luthier to have a new pup put in the bridge position, he opened it up, a look of horror swept over his face, and he said to me "fuck this noize, I'm a luthier, not a professor at MIT, my kung fu is simply not strong enough for the task. Back from whence ye came, young man!" ...I guess the wiring is quite intricate.
What is the point of demonstrating guitar sound if your tone has so much compressor chorus delay and reverb over very dirty and messy distortion sound? I bet i can get the exact sound by plugging my first guitar worth 150$ into that setup..
TONEWOOD DOESN'T EXIST! Jesus fucking christ! I'm sure it's a great guitar, but man after so many years of proving how bs tonewood is, I feel like some guitar manufacturers try to rip off their customers.
electromagnetic waves? what? you know how a pickup (not microphone) works, right? and pls stop insulting, this discredits you even more. Thats embarrassing :)

That clean at 4:26 is just beautiful.
***** I believe it's a small piece from a Dream Theater song
DeeZaster It's not as far as I know, I'd say the closest thing it sounds like is Another Day...maybe it's something from LTE that I'm missing?
***** it really does sound very similar to a dream theater song but I can't grasp which one.
DeeZaster Hopefully it's something to come in the new album maybe!
***** Sounds very much like the rhythm section playing along the emotive solos in Glasgow Kiss.

That was quite interesting!
Cool
Been waiting 6 months for this guitar now... Finally in January it should finally be finished!
Sounds amazing. Wish I could afford one.
he shaved yesterday.
yes and he put a fake beard
You WIN the Internet!
@@flatliner770 it's real beard, he buys them from james harden
yep. 4:26. I cannot get over that sound and the chords he uses. Guitarists will know what i mean when you think, "i found the perfect clean sound"
Rush moment
He is literally the best guitarist in the world.
ever heard of jason richardson?
@@thomasgendron3875 Yes I have. Jason Richardson is an incredible guitar player, and underrated. The thing is that I enjoy Dream Theater over Jason Richardson. People have opinions.
Wow, Clean sounds great!
O.K. John Petrucci is the long lost twin of Rollo from ''Vikings'',the beard,the massive arms,he even swings an axe.xD Seriously,amazing instrument.
***** Petrucci would defeat Rollo in any battle and then blend him up for a protein shake

What a gorgeous guitar.
SO BEAUTIFUL
damn John, do you have enough chorus on that dirty tone? lol
Perry D Everything is never enough, Dude.
he has overdriven chorus
Perry D Hahaha I thought the same thing
Gorgeous guitar. BEST Guitarist ever. My hero John Petrucci
Did his barber retire or something?
+Novron He was taken out accidentally as he was too close to JP when he showed him a new solo riff...boom, head gone....what a way to go though... Rumor has it that JP stood over his limp body and said "I mustache you a question but I'll shave it for later"...then laughed and left....weird right?
jbmusicman1 pretty weird, yeah
4:26 ...The peace
is that a song?
replica by sonata arctica
great tone !!
sounds amazing
2:44 uge sound
That guy from Epic Meal Time...great guitar player!
the tone from that guitar partly comes from his hair too so its magnetics piezo tonewood and tonehair.
Awesome guitar, In fact all the EBMM JP guitars are amazing. I'm currently saving money for a JP6. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these masterpieces!
Did you ever get one?
Wait does the coil split only work in the middle position???
Dat ending section....! Fuuuuck that's good.
The single test Petrucci performs at 2:09 is far better than all MPB (Música Popular Brasileira) ever created.

It very classic serie and classic sound for me ,,,, bfr serie

First time I see a BFR without the BFR plate at the 12th fret....
dat tone
the chorus effect in the beginnig of the video comes from the axe fx? or is it the dreamscape??
What song is the opening riff at the beginning of the video?
I can not find this guitar anywhere
sounded like he was gonna start playing I am a viking by Yngwie!
Bring back the Tobacco Quilt finish
The Ernie Ball Music Man JP15 is my dream guitar. I'll never afford one though. I would have to sell my entire set up just to pay for half of it.
Does the alder give any advantages over basswood? I've dreamed about a JP6 for a while, but I'd rather get what JP actually uses in studio and on tour... but once you buy something, it's always replaced by something else.. 2 months after I finally bought a Mesa Mark V, the JP2C was announced LOL

jbmusicman1
I ended up with a JP15. I love it, but the case smells awful lol
Can anyone tell me the name of the song or the riff at the ending?
If you mean 4:26, it sounds like an arrangement of the clean section in Glasgow kiss. Not exactly identical, but I think it has the same chord progression
How much is this approximately?
i absolutely love this guitar, but i can't for the life of me figure out why they put the switch directly in front of the strumming hand. it was the ONLY thing keeping me from buying it. i just cannot understand the logic behind this..

what was at 3,22?
John is lookin like metal santa these days...
skylar beasley more like fucking jesus
skylar beasley how is this not too comment

Dat Koa
i heard that he can do guitar solos with his beard
When I took one of these to my local luthier to have a new pup put in the bridge position, he opened it up, a look of horror swept over his face, and he said to me "fuck this noize, I'm a luthier, not a professor at MIT, my kung fu is simply not strong enough for the task. Back from whence ye came, young man!" ...I guess the wiring is quite intricate.
Tried this guitar, sounded bad. Letting my beard grow, will see if that improves the tone.
Much better than the Majesty
That guitar still probably costs lest than what JP spends on beard dye. 50 years old and no grey in the beard eh? ; )
He just buys new hair everytime it turns grey
I only really hate how John pronounces "piezo".
I don't care for John Petrucci, but love his JP6 guitars and Majesty guitars. How does one pronounce Piezo?
It’s pronounced “pay zoo”
Jenkin Male “Pee-et-so” or “pee-eh-so”.
It's "Poo-zah"
His dirty tone is too effects laden nowadays.
This would have been soo much better with a satin finish.
That last riff should be part of the next song
What is the point of demonstrating guitar sound if your tone has so much compressor chorus delay and reverb over very dirty and messy distortion sound? I bet i can get the exact sound by plugging my first guitar worth 150$ into that setup..
Burak Verid I bet you cant
You can totally tell he was influenced by Lifeson
It's Jesus as a guitarist.
Hector Munoz Yeah Jesus shaves......
guthrie is jesus
Hector Munoz lol he is
EBMMs may be technically superior, but his tone was so much better in the Ibanez days. John's tone is just generic high-gain now.
ipojuca22 it's all about gainz bruh
Love his signature guitars but I've just never liked his tone.
What a HORRIBLE place to put the switch lol
tonewood is a myth... just sayin.
TONEWOOD DOESN'T EXIST! Jesus fucking christ! I'm sure it's a great guitar, but man after so many years of proving how bs tonewood is, I feel like some guitar manufacturers try to rip off their customers.
+EricMetalhead Oh really? See this video and think again: seFBVpGmXKk
hm o.k. show me the paper pls.
do you really understand what you are writing? you must be dumb, this statement is positive proof for that.
***** of course I know what I am talking about, acoustic waves and electro magnetic waves don't interact at all you idiot
electromagnetic waves? what? you know how a pickup (not microphone) works, right? and pls stop insulting, this discredits you even more. Thats embarrassing :)
