Key Features
- Stainless Steel Frets – Silky smooth and as close to indestructible as you could get from a piece of fret wire.
- 20db Boost – thanks to the Custom Music Man active preamp a total of 20db of boost is available at a click of a button ensuring that you never go unheard during a solo.
- Shielding – The JP15s’ unique Graphite Acrylic Resin-Coated Body Cavity & Aluminium Control Cover ensures minimal electrical noise interference even with insane amounts of gain.
John Petrucci Humbuckers
Bold and rich in clarity the DiMarzio Illuminator pickups are designed to give John every sound he ever requires in his gargantuan musical vocabulary from just 2 Humbucker pickups. From rip-roaring articulated high-gain tones to more expressive and dynamic phrases, these pickups transition seamlessly between any playing style.
Fishman Piezo Saddles
Near-perfect acoustic guitar tones thanks to the Custom John Petrucci Music Man Floating Tremolo with Fishman Powerbridge Piezo Saddles. At the turn of a knob, your ‘acoustic’ sound can be blended into your signal or alternatively, you can split the signal using the 2 inputs and run the Piezo pickups directly into a PA or acoustic amp for a more raw and natural tone.
Ultimate Tonal Variety
The unique switching capabilities in the JP15 can unlock a variety of different tones, perhaps ones you’ve never imagined were possible. With the top 3-way switch (found on the upper horn of the instrument) in the down position, the guitar works as you would expect any normal HH electric guitar to work.
Using the regular 3-way you can choose between the neck or bridge pickup as well as both in parallel. Using the Push/Push button on the Tone Knob allows you to split the coils but only in position 2 (both pickups). In the middle position of the switch on the upper horn, it allows you to use both the Piezo Transducer pickup as well as the humbuckers and in the final switch position, it is just the Piezo pickup by itself. Your signal can also be split for even more tonal variety thanks to the stereo output options.
