since we are on the topic of JP's guitars, I should mention that although the Majesty is the current weapon, the JP15 is a sick guitar. I have the one in sahara burst. I'm not sure if the other colors are this way, but the neck and body have a wax or oil on them-- as opposed to a coat of polyester-- which make them silky smooth. Your hands just glide over it with no resistance. It's also a much more traditional shape than the Majesty for those of us who can't get used to how it looks.
Is that the one with the Floyd Rose bridge? When I used to work for Guitar Center, I was able to play all these guitars before they made it to the floor
I seriously never played a bad JP guitar.
You can still get those pickups from DiMarzio. Sonic Ecstasy
Oh yes, I know DiMarzio has them, I just haven't done so, but maybe it is time? I have an old Ibanez at home I've been wanting to customize (new hardware, new pickups, etc.), I should make that my next project
Wow I've never seen this guitar, pretty awesome.
I haven't played a majesty guitar in a very long time. My buddy decided that when he was going to get into playing guitar he bought a mystic dream majesty 7string. I didn't really like it because my hand kept hitting the volume and tone knobs but that was almost 2 decades ago now, I should pick one up and give it a go. I also need to ask if my buddy wants to sell that majesty that has been sitting under his bed for years
That was a limited run guitar, they only made 21 and sold for $10K each, so yeah no worth it for my pocket
if there is something I admire about JP and his guitars, is that every new model has something new to it to make it more comfortable to play, and/or improve the sound slightly. A JP guitar from the early 2000's is not the same as a JP guitar now. Go to a guitar shop and try one out, see if you still feel the same.
