Available in 6 or 7 - string options with a Music Man JP tremolo, 3 - way Toggle pickup selector, and comes with a Music Man hardshell case. Specifications include a maple top and Okoume body, high - gloss polyester finish, roasted maple fretboard, 25 - 1/2' (64.8 cm) scale length, 24 medium jumbo stainless - steel frets, custom JP15 inlays, DiMarzio Illuminator pickups, a custom John Petrucci Music Man® Piezo floating tremolo, specific strings, Schaller M6 - IND locking tuning machines, and matte black hardware finish.
Using your Ernie Ball Music Man JP15 is a breeze. First, plug in your guitar to an amplifier using a standard instrument cable. Adjust the 3 - way Toggle pickup selector to choose between different pickup combinations for various tones. The onboard 20db gain boost can be used to add extra power to your sound when needed. When it comes to the tremolo, use it gently to create smooth pitch variations. For the piezo bridge system, it adds a unique acoustic - like element to your sound, which you can experiment with. As for maintenance, keep your guitar in a stable environment. Avoid extreme temperatures and humidity as they can affect the roasted maple neck and fingerboard. Clean the strings regularly with a soft cloth to keep the sound clear. Wipe down the body and hardware to prevent dust and dirt buildup. When not in use, store it in the provided Music Man hardshell case to protect it from damage.
