Music Man John Petrucci Majesty 7, Black Knight

Full Description

Outstanding Electronics

Equipped with a pair of DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy Humbuckers in bridge and neck positions, these innovative electronics assist with creating and replicating the immaculate sounds of Petrucci's own guitar playing. The active preamp system with the DiMarzio humbuckers offers control over a 20dB gain boost, and many other sonic possibilities. The controls include a volume control for a huge output jump for that extra projection; and a tone control for creating your dream tones.

Ebony Fingerboard Paired With Mahogany Neck

The Majesty Monarchy is manufactured with a ebony fingerboard, which offers smoother and faster playing, allowing you to navigate the frets as fast as Petrucci himself. Ebony produces a very responsive, bright and snappy attack which works well paired with a mahogany neck and body. The sturdy mahogany neck gives the guitar a rich, focused sound and the body likewise produces thick, warm tones. The neck-through construction offers a more comfortable playing experience with easier access to the higher frets as well as providing greater sustain. Neck-through guitars are often sturdier than other guitars due to excellent stability and they also allow your instrument to stay in tune longer.
