John Petrucci

at :31 seconds john says " this is my new JP16. It is modeled off the JP15 so it has the same body style, but we brought back the arm scoop from the original JP line of guitars."

"We're using all the JP11s now, except for one guitar. So this is the main JP11 and it's kind of a silver color. I think was the last prototype before they went into production. This is the one [John Petrucci] used throughout the whole recording of the new album. It has DiMarzio Crunch Lab and Liquifire, it' a signature set of pickups from DiMarzio. Then it's got the Ernie Ball Piezo system on the bridge, which all his guitars come with. For string gauges we're actually using a new custom gauge, it kind of changes around whenever he feels like it. Starting high to low, it's .010, .012, .016, .024, .036, .046. Dudley at Ernie Ball came up with that gauge for himself and said 'You guys should try this out,' and we did and [John] loves them. You can't really go to the store and buy them off the shelf but we put them together as we need them. back in the Ibanez days he used the Ibanez version of a Floyd, the Double Locking. When he went to Ernie Ball he said, 'We don't want to do that. Let's do something different.' So they came up with that one and it works every bit as good and you don't have all the hangups of the Locking or anything like that," says John Petrucci's guitar tech.

"We get into the seven-strings, which is the exact same guitar [as the JP11] but with an extra string. Same color, same neck, same everything. The gauge is the same as the standard except it's got a .56 for the low B," says John Petrucci's guitar tech.

"The last different guitar is the Baritone, and this is actually the BFR model before we came out with the JP10s and JP11s. It's got the maple top on it and tobacco finish. It’s a longer scale, I believe its 27-inch, and this is tuned down to A. And again it's a custom gauged set, it's like .12 to .64, I think - 24 frets. John uses this on 'These Walls' which is tuned down to A. That's the only song he uses it on," says John Petrucci's guitar tech.

"This is a new thing. Well the guitar is not new, but using it live is new. They're doing a little acoustic set depending again on the set list. We use this in the studio, it's a Taylor 30th anniversary. It's a 712ce model. We just plug it straight into a DI and that's it. We use Ernie Ball Light Gauge strings on this one," says John Petrucci's guitar tech.

"This is a cool one. This is tuned down to D. It was an experiment that Ernie Ball did, and this is actually aluminum laminated to the top. He made two of these which we possess. It's a tiny bit brighter but it's a cool guitar. We got this one again while we were in the studio and [John] had me tune it down to D for one song. That's what he recorded with. Tonight he'll use it on 'Endless Sacrifice' and then the other D song in the set is 'Forsaken', depending on what set list we're doing. Same pickups, Crunch Lab Liquifire, this one's got Black Hardware instead of Chrome, black headstock instead of the matching color. This is a cool guitar and we have two of these. Dudley made two of them at the same time so we said, 'Yeah we'll take them'," says John Petrucci's guitar tech.

As seen on his website and on many stages, John Petrucci is using his double neck JP signature model.

"The Majesty guitar symbolizes the very reason why I am so proud to be a Music Man artist. I had the idea for this guitar a couple of years ago but it is because of their innovative spirit and dedication to the art of guitar building that it is now a reality. I am so grateful that I am able to collaborate with the best guitar company on the planet and so incredibly proud that together we have created what is to me, the perfect musical instrument for guitar players. I really hope you get a chance to play one and am confident that you will feel the same!"

The headstock and the the HH pickup configuration are clear giveaway that the guitar is a B.C. Rich Assassin. Judging by the year in which the video was shot it's most probably a Platinum Pro Series Assassin.
