Description

The Ernie Ball Music Man JP Nomac Majesty is not just an electric guitar; it’s a masterpiece that melds craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Designed in collaboration with virtuoso John Petrucci, this instrument is one of only 20 made worldwide, making it a rare gem for collectors and serious musicians alike. Its proprietary piezo floating tremolo system offers unparalleled versatility, allowing seamless transitions between electrifying solos and full-bodied acoustic tones with the flick of a switch.

Crafted with a mahogany body and through-neck design, the JP Nomac Majesty delivers a rich, resonant tone. The guitar's aesthetic is breathtaking, adorned with a laser-carved NOMAC shield and an intricately machined medallion, inlaid with back-lit Burmese red spinel gems. The rose cut black diamonds, set in 14K white gold, add a touch of opulence that pays homage to Dream Theater’s concept album, The Astonishing.

Equipped with Sonic Ecstasy humbuckers and active electronics, this guitar is a tonal powerhouse. The built-in active preamp provides a 20dB boost, perfect for pushing your sound to the forefront during solos, while the passive coil tap offers a versatile range of tones for any musical scenario. Locking tuners by Schaller ensure impeccable tuning stability, even when using the tremolo system for the wildest of dive bombs.

Key Features:

  • Extremely limited edition John Petrucci signature model
  • Mahogany body with mahogany through-neck design
  • Laser-carved NOMAC top shield with black diamonds
  • Sonic Ecstasy humbuckers with active preamp system
  • Proprietary JP piezo floating tremolo system

Critic Reviews

MusicMan turns up the bling with Petrucci Signature NOMAC Majesty guitar - gearnews.com

gearnews.com

The Ernie Ball Music Man JP Nomac Majesty guitar dazzles with its extravagant design, featuring diamonds and white gold, making it more a collector’s piece than a musician’s staple. While its DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy pickups promise impressive sound, the $10,000 price tag and limited run of 21 units make it inaccessible for most. The review highlights its artistic value but questions its practicality, suggesting its appeal is more for art collectors than serious guitarists. This lavish guitar might be a visual spectacle, but its over-the-top bling could be seen as gaudy by traditionalists.
