ERNIE BALL MUSIC MAN MAJESTY 8-STRING
ERNIE BALL MUSIC Man’s long-standing collaboration with John Petrucci has resulted in the fascinating evolution of both his original JP signature model and the innovative Majesty model, the latter introduced in 2014. The new Music Man Majesty 8-String represents the pinnacle of Petrucci and Music Man’s collaboration to date, offering incredible tonal versatility, the performance advantages of a multi-scale design, refined playability and sleek, modern styling. The Majesty 8-String is ideal for guitarists seeking to expand their expressive capabilities, but unlike many other 8-string models, which are “specialty” instruments that most players will only use for a few songs, the new Majesty makes an ideal main instrument that can fulfill the roles of several guitars.
