Player's Perspective
Sterling has been killing it over the last few years in their endeavors to make the highly-famed Ernie Ball Music Man guitars attainable at more affordable price points, and this new 7-String Majesty is no exception. John Petrucci's signature guitar is now available in a gorgeous new Blood Orange Burst finish over a highly figured spalted maple top. The color and wood combination gives off serious "Halloween" vibes, which pairs nicely with the crushing riffs the guitar can deliver with its DiMarzio pickups. One thing we've always liked about the Majesty in particular is its combination of metal/shredder features with more vintage-friendly appointments, the cases on this one being the more simplified 2-point tremolo bridge and the classy-looking natural mahogany back. Pair that with the ebony fretboard and stainless steel frets, and you have a whole lot of guitar for not too much money - and in the case of this 7-string, literally.
