STERLING BY MUSIC MAN John Petrucci JP160 RW Black Metallic
Signature electric guitar with roasted maple neck, humbucker pickups with active boost and double locking tremolo, including gigbag
The Sterling by Music Man John Petrucci JP160 RW Black Metallic convinces as signature electric guitar of the Dream Theater guitarist with a first-class equipment, which ensures an unhindered playing comfort and versatile sounds between Rock and Metal. The Sterling JP160 offers not only a strongly contoured body, but also a neck made of thermo-treated maple, which was previously reserved for much more expensive instruments. On the amplifier, humbuckers with active boost provide rich tones, while the double locking tremolo invites you to virtuoso Whammy Bar actions.
The Sterling by Music Man JP160 convinces with high playing comfort and versatile sounds for progressive rock and metal.
Sterling by Music Man JP160: Roasted Maple Neck and high playing comfort
The most striking feature of the Sterling by Music Man JP160 is undoubtedly the fivefold screwed neck made of thermally treated maple. By "baking" the neck blank in a vacuum, Roasted Maple loses a large part of its residual moisture, making the wood more stable and insensitive to climate fluctuations. Thanks to the flat D-profile and the matt back, the neck also offers the perfect basis for virtuoso electric guitar playing, which is supported by the pronounced forearm contour of the mahogany body.
Humbucker pickups with active boost, double locking tremolo
Two hot humbuckers are used as pickups on the SBMM John Petrucci JP160, whose precisely defined sound stages virtuoso solos just as skilfully as tight riffs and cleanly played melodies or arpeggios. In addition, the electric guitar offers an active boost that boosts the signal by 12 dB, releasing additional volume and gain reserves. With the classic double locking tremolo, virtuoso Whammy Bar actions such as squeals or dive bombs can be performed without affecting the tuning of the guitar.
