- With footage dating back to the early 2000s, this documentary examines the evolution of John Petrucci signature guitar, his relationship with the Ernie Ball Music Man, and features extensive interviews with Petrucci, Sterling Ball, and members of the Ernie Ball Music Man Engineering and Product Development team, who each worked on the first JP guitar design with John and have been an instrumental part of its progression since the beginning.
Ernie Ball Music Man and Signature Artist John Petrucci are proud to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the John Petrucci Signature Guitar. For over two decades the world-renowned Dream Theater guitarist has partnered and collaborated with Ernie Ball Music Man crafting some of the world’s most forward-thinking and innovative signature instruments.

you guys should make left handed musicman majestys and name them "musicman ytse jam"
🤜🏼🤛🏽👏🏼🖤
yes!
@@filipkaczmaryeah...
In the years of being on the Music Man messages boards, I can’t believe this was never suggested before!
Yes!!
I agree with that. I have only a jp6 lefty model. Earlier I wanted to buy majesty in the left handed version but they said they're not making those so what can I do?
The classic JP6 is such an unstoppable tone monster. My absolute #1 guitar.
same, i have a jp6 from 2005, before it had the crunch lab & liquifier and tonewise i honestly think that's the best guitar music man ever made (maybe together with the jp15 which i think sounds slightly better than the majesty).The new models are all so lovely though, really wish i could afford one to replace my sterling jp70
With that absolutely perfect forearm scoop!!! 😎
I really liked the silver JP 13 from a few years back. I think they discontinued that 13 model.
Therapist: Guy Fieri John Petrucci isn’t real, he can’t hurt you
Guy Fieri John Petrucci: 8:32
Holy ***
Do you guys know if this live performance of his is available to watch anywhere??
John will turn into Santa Claus and he will give us a lot of Majestys one day!
Haha👍👍😂😂
That’s a Christmas I want
My dream guitar is the purple majesty...
@@timandjessica4204 mine too
😄😂😅
From JP6 to Majesty, the entire process has helped shape us all become better musicians. Thank you, JP and Mr Sterling Ball for this incredible journey! I can't wait to receive my Majesty XX!
Cheers to another 20 years!
@@faberbootlegs 🤣 Not even close! I do have a Sweetwater gear card! 💪🏻😎🎸
@@faberbootlegs Majesty's have only existed for like 7 years.. not 20.
@@Borlos. no one here has said that
@@Borlos. read again...
I wrote from JP6 to Majesty.
🙄
The Majesty is the ultimate evolution of the JP6. 🤷🏻♂️
indeed JP is a legend and to own a custom instrument in same design used by the master of shred is wonderful
I hated the look of the Majesty, but it grew up on me to the point that I bought one of the original Arctic Dream ones. I only have 2 problems with that guitar:
1: It's expensive AF, but you can tell where every cent went
2: It's so damn easy to play that I barely even touch my other guitars.
My OG Iced Crimson was cheap as fuck to pay off per month. And I didn't have some fancy job. At least they're cheaper than every version thats come after. Nowadays you can get the first models 'used' in basically perfect condition for damn good prices.
That matte finish and the carbon fiber designed black shield are pure sex. Never desired a newer version after my OG model.. or understood why they're strictly gloss now/ditched the black shield.
Same. I thought the majesty was one of the ugliest guitars I’d ever seen and then it grew on me. The glacier frost white one is my favorite.
@@Borlos. I bought mine used and it was in mint condition.
Same here bro!
@@Borlos. I have an ice crimson majesty and a jp13. So so good.
Credit to everyone involved. This is a masterpiece guitar, as well as, a masterpiece team effort.
I remember being a kid wanting a Mystic Dream JP6 soo bad back around 2006 or 2007 but would never be able to afford it. Still thousands of dollars even today.
Been playing 20 years, John Petrucci and Gary Moore are forever my idols.
The Majesty has been everything I’ve needed in a guitar. Ridiculously easy to play, great lead and rhythm tones, stays in tune incredibly well for a non locking trem, lightest guitar I’ve played, and ergonomic. If I didn’t want a strat tone, this would be the only guitar I’d need
For some of the models that I tried out in stores, I got interesting tones both clean and dirty using both magnetic pickups with the piezo blend; it’s so versatile even with shit settings.
Majesty: best guitar in the universe
THE GREATEST GUITAR PLAYER OF ALL TIME
IN THE GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME

Talk about reaching a career APEX
Congrats SENSEI JOHN 'ODIN' PETRUCCI + ERNIE BALL's MUSIC MAN
✊🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤘🏻🤘🏻🌎
wait his signatures outsell the Les Paul? Because that thing literally is a signature guitar.
Les Paul is the all time bestselling signature guitar, unless you're coming from the future. Your love and passion on a player doesn't affect the solid facts.
I have followed DT since 1993. Saw them so many times in the 90’s, always stood right in front of John every show. After seeing them play later on the 6 Degrees tour, on September 10th in 2002, I immediately went out in search of a JP6. One week later I bought my first one, a Pearl Red Burst JP6, fully loaded. Such a great guitar.
That's awesome man, do you still own it? I'd love to get one of his originals one day
Big congrats on 20 years with these amazing JP guitars! I love them!
Cheers from Denmark
Absolute Legend, This was a super cool mini-doc on one of my biggest inspirations!
John deserves all of the success and accolades. That guy works hard and has genuine passion. It is a great thing to see.
This is beautiful!!! so much history here. Happy 20th anniversary!!! looking forward for the next decades of innovation!!
Congratulations, and here's to another 20!
I love my Majesty Marrone! What an amazing guitar congrats on 20 years and thanks for all the great music JP!
John petrucci is one of the smartest, most well behaved gentleman and absolutely great guitarist ever seen❤️❤️❤️
Congrats JP and EBMM! You've created the best lines of guitars in history, period. Keep rockin'!
So fortunate to own 6 of the JP and Majesty pieces and a couple of JP2C heads. Greatest instruments and amps. Nothing compares.
Each new model is an evolution of improvements. I don't think JP will ever stop evolving his guitars or his music to greater levels.
Congratulations for 20 years of guitar innovation.
These and the Hydrospace Majesty are so awesome!
I remember going to this NAMM-like fair 15 years ago and trying every hi-end guitar from all major brands I could get my hands on. Left the place knowing JP6 is THE guitar.
Years later, I'm a happy owner of not only that one but also two Majesties. Truly inspiring instruments!
Congratulations on 20 Years! 🎉🎉
I've bought my dream guitar about 7 months ago :D,
the Music man Majesty enchanted and it's just bloody amazing! best guitar that I've ever seen, heard or felt!
best purchase of my life
I own the white Majesty. I was returning a guitar that sucked,and by happenstance someone was returning the Majesty..the guitar guy said hold this while I do the paperwork for your guitar. So I’m looking at this guitar,,knowing it’s thousands of $’s. and I’m a Petrucci fan. After 5 minutes of playing this guitar I traded in every guitar and pedal I had..needless to say,I’ve had the White Majesty for a couple of years,and I gig often,it’s a workhorse of a guitar..Super versatile,always stays in tune,and unbelievably comfortable to play..Hands down the best guitar I’ve ever played! Thank you Sterling,John and the whole crew for making a stellar guitar ! 👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩
You guys are the best. I had a JP13 for 2 years and it was one of the best things to ever happen in my life. Sadly I had to sell it and it is REALLY hard and expensive to buy one of these in Brazil (almost 20 minimum wages, the price of good used car). I brought mine from the US and I hope I'm able to that again real soon. Looking forward for the next 20 years of JP + EBMM!
I just hope that John will never ever leave us. I listen to his music since the early Majesty days and started playing the guitar. After so many years i just can't imagine a world without him.
His unique melodies combined with his humble and friendly character really helped me through a lot of bad and good times. I always wanted to own a Jp siganture music man but unfortunately couldn't afford it. Some day i will have one.
John, if you'll ever read this:
You are my hero !!
To me this is the best guitar out there. I'm deeply satisfied as a musician and it's really easy to play.
I've been using EBMM for 11 years and I can't get enough out of those guitars. I love them.
Thanks for making such awesome instruments. (:
Please, realease more videos of John from the vault! That Glasgow Kiss one looks interesting! (:
Still have my first year production JP6, and I still love it!
Love it!
Amazing journey!!
And so nice to see sone unseen footage!!👏
I own a bunch of guitars from several manufacturers. I can say they definitely made the Majesty playable for just about anyone. It’s not just John’s name on an ordinary guitar. The ones with the alder bodies really do it for me. Worth every penny.
Managed to lay my hands on both the 20th Anniversary models.
Definitely amazing cut outs and playability!
One of my all time favorite guitar players. I have a sterling jp 70 and a couple months ago I was lucky enough to be able to buy a BFR Bali Blue burst Majesty it’s my favorite guitar and I barely play my other guitars.
This was really cool, thank you.
Majesty is just the most amazing guitar that I have tried but I never had a chance to own one... I always wanted to have one. Happy Anniversary to John Petrucci's Signature Collection!!! More models to come.
Greetings from Bangladesh 🇧🇩, Maestro. John, I have been playing JP6 from 2003. also many BFR's and little Majesty. These are Amazing guitars. Tone, playability, durability and craftsmanship are unparallel. I have followed you since 1991. Learned a lot from you and Dream Theater by covering. As far as JP6, BFR and Majesty...these are evolutionary guitars. Thank you for your music and vision towards developing guitars that is helpful ergonomically. Lots of love, admiration, respect and gratitude. Take care, Maestro. ♥️🎶⚡🎸
This is why I became a fan of Ernie Ball, their attention to detail is unparalleled. I own a Valentine (not a fan of m5) but I love the shape, the feel of the neck, the sound. My next guitar will be another Music Man.
The first time i tried John signatire guitar was in 2019 in guitar summit in mannheim, germany. Well, i don't know how to discribe this guitar, at that time i was stop playing guitar for about 4 years which make me back to be amateur again but anyway, i wasn't even profesional guitarist and you know what, after trying a lot of guitars at that event, the Majesty was blowing my mind, this sound exactly like the dream theater song, and since then John's signature guitar ist on my list to collect guitar. Well done Music man and John! What a incredible Guitar!
Beautiful story
my all-time favourite looking guitar is the Mystic Dream JP6, hands down.
what a joy to see a truly happy human being :)
Everytime I think I love the JPM for everything about it - the looks, the tone and the memorable albums made with it.. The Music Man guitars are something else - it is evolution one can look at. I don't think I will ever be able to afford one because of other financial commitments to my family, the Majesty and the JPM will always be my dream guitars even if one can mod an RG to look like a JPM.
Imagine jp13 with ebony fretboard
Btw Congratulations 🎉
i have the jp13 model with all rosewood neck and even though i love ebony fingerboard that unfinished all rosewood neck is a masterpiece (sorry for my english by the way)
I remember picking up an Ernie Ball jp6 musicman and thinking "oh wow, that's definitely worth the high price."
The neck felt incredible, the guitar was resonate, ergonomic, and very fast feeling. Also the the floating bridge was totally different than the Floyd Roses I was used to . I regret no buying that guitar to this day. That's the only artist series guitar is but tbh.
I just bought my first EBMM Majesty 7 string guitar and look forward to playing it!
My JP6 is one of my favourite guitars. Congrats on the first 20 years, here's to 20 more!
Congratulations john, you did it. Well done
I wish this was one hour long. Great video
Stunning
Very cool story.
Interesting choice for background music throughout. Clarinet, celesta, and strings. Very HP-like. Why does this combo sound so inquisitive?
So cool!
Man I hope Petrucci is wealthy given all this work he does! The guy just doesn’t quit on any aspect of his artistry
He’s worth 35 mill, he’s doing ok lol
Thanks John, Thanks Sterling...great job!
Felicidades Ernie Ball!! Me encantan sus cuerdas!!
Awesome brotha.. mad love
🎼🗝🎸
Incredible guitars. I really enjoy playing my jp kona.
So cool.
20 yrs.......fuuuuuuuuuuuuuug I'm old :/ John deserves it all and more. Total pro and great guy!
Wish I had my old JP6 still... but when you're young and need money 💵 🥺... I'll get one again someday. Wish I'd known these guitars would only appreciate in value! 😣
This man is my idol, crazy player, crazy sound
Boring band though.
@@GeorgeZimmermen that's your opinion though
@@soloh_ugo yeah and I stated it. Also, my opinion is always right
@@GeorgeZimmermen : Only for you though ……..Nob !!
I love My Sterling JP100K , so thanx John . It`s more guitar than I need . To this day it still inspires Me to step up my playing every time I pick it up .
Cheers Bearded Cheeky .
Ernie Ball, please create more of these videos! We would like to see more prototypes and the process of creating a whole new design and a whole new guitar! I'm pretty sure you have some interesting ones in the Vault ;)
❤️ John petrucci ..
Increible ya 20 años en que momento paso
awesome
What a great idea!
Amazing guitars!!
oh my god .... the classic jp is finally back .... such an sexy icon .....
by the way ... never fell in love with the majesty design ....
Incredibly inspiring and moving video. This just goes to show what human beings with the highest intentions are capable of, making this world a way better place. 💪🏻🎸👌🏻
My guitar goals include owning a Majesty and JP6 Mystic Dream. Just iconic guitars imo.
Best video 👍👍
I was done trying to play like JP ten years ago, but man this made me want to acquire one of these bad-ass guitars and get working tjose chops!
My very first sallary was spent on a Sterling JP60, the closest thing I could afford to a JP6. I now have 5 guitars and It still my favorite guitar..
Nice! Looking forward to see some lefty models in the future!
The JP will go down as one of the most iconic guitars of all time!
Amazing video. Just recently bought the 2021 sterling majesty and it is absolutely amazing. Curious now though, because the sterling models aren’t neck through, do the sterling models have more wood there as opposed to a MM majesty?
JPXI-7 is the absolute best guitar I´ve ever owned
I have the first JP6 in Candy Apple Red, bought 2002 (it's the 'cheap' version without the piezo) and I still play and love the sh*t out if this thing ❤
I think the next guitar of his I'm dropping a ton of cash on will be the 8-string version for the newest DT album! Can't wait!!!
i wish icould some day earn enough to buy one of these glorius instrument and great master guitarrist jp
Oh wow
2nd comment John is my favorite guitarist I actually own a jp70
Sip mbah JP. Jenengan Panutan🙏👍🏻
ill be saving for a year to get one of these
Love this dude, love his guitars, love his music....but holy shit...he comes out with a new guitar every year.
Seriously...
11th comment here, I just got a Majesty 2016 it is a beast... my first one ever...
awesome guitar, I pray to God, one day I can have one guitar like jhon petruci. Amin🤗😇🙏
It's time that we get a left-handed version of this amazing Majesty guitar! It is not fair not to be able to be part of this amazing guitar, If anything, do a limited run for lefties!
The G3 2007 Show by John on Good Friday 4/7/2007 At the Tower Theater was to this Day the Greatest Guitar performance i ever Saw!😉
I was at the Tower Theater that night. Paul Gilbert was on that tour! Great show, although my favorite G3 will always be 2001, at the Keswick Theater. It was my first time seeing Petrucci (w/ Portnoy), Satriani, and Vai live.
I love my Sterling JP Maj 100. It smokes my Les Paul and was $400 cheaper. It’s my “desert island” guitar for sure.
I hit LIKE before the video actually started playing :)
I hope to buy a Majesty one day. They're too expensive for me for now but I know the price is justified by the amount of work done to make them.
Super interesting
Sold.
Absolutely beautiful, quality instruments. I saved up for ages to buy a 2017 Majestic purple Majesty, and for some reason I can't quite put my finger on, I just can't bond with it. I don't think it's the guitar itself, which is incredible and even better and more beautiful than I ever hoped for. I think more than anything, the fear of it getting stolen or damaged if I took it to a gig sometime would be constantly on my mind during the gig and take away any enjoyment I would get from playing the gig in the first place.
My #1 is a Partscaster that I put together a couple of years ago, love it and have totally bonded with it. It gives me the freedom and peace of mind to do whatever I want with it, knowing that if it did get damaged or stolen, it would cost me less than UK£500 to build another one. I hardly ever play any of my other guitars now either.
The Majesty has become a case queen, hardly ever sees the light of day, but it would break my heart to sell her, knowing the sacrifices I made to buy her in the first place.
How’s the Majesty now?
@@Kinetex I persevered with it and it's now my main go-to for home playing. I re-jigged my rig EQ, upped the low end sub-1K by about 1dB and rolled the top end off above 4K by about 4dB and changed from a Rat to a Tube Screamer. That got rid of the shrillness and gain-y tones. It now just sounds brutal (think Petrucci/Jaws Of Life).
I also set it up a with 9s a half-step down at E-flat standard, which now allows me up to three and a half step combination bend/upswing at the 15th fret (I'm a big Uli fan 🙂).
Biggest thing though was that the guitar forced me into examining my playing and I realised I had to adjust a couple of things ... my muting on both hands had become a bit sloppy over the years, so I had to concentrate on that more and tighten it up. Also, I had to use a bit of a slightly tighter grip with my fretting hand to be able to accentuate the notes and articulate them cleaner, whether soft muted or hard pinch harmonics and anywhere in between. Sacrificed a little bit of legato and arpeggio speed, but that's OK, I'm not an out-and-out shredder anyway.
So the problem was mostly me and how the guitar was set up, rather than the guitar itself and I like to think it has actually ended up making me a better player as a result. All good 🤘.
I still won't gig with it though, still too paranoid about it getting damaged or stolen.
I saw him on the tour with the prototype and wondering what the heck was that guitar. Where did the Ibanez go? It was really cool to see a non locking tremolo that stayed in tune.
