      That's something I started to notice on his different interviews of recent years that he is very humble and down to earth. I got the opportunity to attend his guitar camp and not only I got the chance to meet him but also witnessed him chatting with lots of the attendees who all wanted to ask him questions and he was very humble and friendly , the same way he appears on this video. It was surreal for me to talk briefly to him I must admit.

    What I found interesting is when he said the first EBMM he ever picked up and played was the EVH model (of which, along with a new Cutlass, I own an original from 94!) As John said the EVH neck was "so easy to play, not a baseball bat", which is something to me because, the EVH neck (which is really small, and awesomely comfortable) is quite different dimension wise from the JP necks. While the JP neck is smallish as well (and of course, very fast and easy to play) the EVH/Cutlass necks are much rounder, with a totally different radius, a 10 inch compared to the JP's 16 I believe. Also the whole JP neck profile is so much flatter. So basically what happened was, he kept the from front to back flat profile dimensions of the Ibanez neck that he prefers, and had EBMM make it with their smaller nut width. I've never played a Petrucci Ibanez so I can't say exactly how identical they are however, I do believe they're similar to a point.

    • @Tom-zc9gs
      @Tom-zc9gs 3 года назад

      I've only touched for a couple minutes an Ibanez JPM, but I don't think you're that far off the mark. The "viper" neck, I think it was called, is thinner at the nut compared to most Ibanez necks, especially modern ones, and has a round back which fills the hand very nicely. I'm not sure if all JPMs had that neck though.

    • @SoiledWig
      @SoiledWig 3 года назад

      i played an EVH MM way back at a trade show and was equally impressed, though a major factor for me was the satin finish. i wonder whether that had anything to do with it for JP, too. Though with that said, only some of the JP signature MMs have a satin finish on the neck.

    Actually "piezo" is derived from the Greek πιέζω (exactly how John pronounced it), which means to squeeze or press. The greek word for "pressure" is "piesi" (accent on the pi). Nope, that's not like Gus Portokalos' (My Big Fat Greek Wedding) outrageous etymologies, it is actually true :)

    • @DoubleD_93
      @DoubleD_93 3 года назад +1

      I think the majority of musical instruments have skyrocketed in price, partly due to inflation but also due to material costs and labor. I had an LTD Alexi-200 in 2008 that costed me $430 CAD...the same guitar is now $1000CAD, for an entry level bolt on flying V with a Floyd Rose Special. Also, there's been a heavy shift of manufacturing locations too...while the prices have increased, a vast majority of the previously $800 priced guitars are now $1100-1500 and made in Indonesia whereas 10 years ago, this price point ($800 to 1500) was reserved for South Korea models (which are now around $2000). So I can assume that this has impacted guitars made in America as well.

    The evolution of the Stingray and Cutlass from similar Fender products, EVH's input into the Axis, and now Wolfies guitar's have impacted the industry in ways that are hard to even measure. Personally don't care much for the Majesty. The other descendants in the JP line, are more my style.

      I was wondering the exact same thing as I didn't recognize it. Makes me wonder if it might be one of those promotional CD or DVDs that would come in some of the special edition Guitar magazine like those from UK or Japan that would have additional material in the form of small video lessons or interviews complimentary to what appeared on the magazine article. Maybe anyone else here might know or have it ?

Don't know what would I do with all those features - that would be like putting a tractorist into an F1-bolid cockpit :-) Need to try and make a gig or two with friends - maybe that'd give some idea what this sophisticated stuff is all about.

      @0megalul309 3 года назад

      They use metal backplates so they probably expand/contract faster than wood so recessing them might give issues.
      The majesty can't have recessed backplates since the electronics take up too much depth in the majesty so they need to put it above the guitar.

    Honestly, they look a little plain to me. I would have thought they would have come up with something more eye catching for an anniversary model. The flame maple doesn't have much of a 3D effect on the bolt on version. The Majesty looks relatively nicer and it has a better maple piece but there isn't enough contrast in the finish. For the most part, they look like ordinary sunburst guitars. I also don't understand why he wants gloss paint on his necks. I would think that would slow him down.
