Music Man John Petrucci Signature JP6 Desert Gold 2004

The original JP6 with which John Petrucci defined his signature sound, in a rare Desert Gold finish

The 2004 Music Man John Petrucci JP6 is the original signature model of the Dream Theater guitarist, and one of the most thoughtfully designed electric guitars ever. This Desert Gold example is a pre-owned instrument in ready-to-play condition, featuring all the characteristics that make the JP6 a reference instrument for technically demanding guitarists.

The sound is powerful, defined, and extremely dynamic. The two custom DiMarzio humbuckers, specially designed for Petrucci, deliver a clear, high-gain-friendly tone with excellent articulation. The piezo bridge adds an acoustic dimension: clear, natural, and full of sustain. Together, they give the JP6 a versatility that few guitars can match. The basswood body with ergonomic arm contour and the sculpted neck joint ensure playing comfort that will keep you playing for hours on end.

The maple neck is ultra-thin and fast, attached via five bolts with an adjustable truss rod. The rosewood fretboard has 24 wide, high-profile stainless steel frets and JP inlays. The tremolo with piezo system offers smooth pitch variation with excellent tuning stability. Scale length 25.5", 5-bolt neck attachment, basswood body with high-gloss finish.

A rare opportunity to get your hands on an early JP6 model that still performs as Petrucci intended.
