Up for sale is an incredible 2020 EBMM Ball Family Reserve JP6 John Petrucci Signature in Cinnamon Shift. This run was limited to 50 pieces worldwide, and you are looking at gently used #12 of 50. The first thing that jumps out is the finish ... its hard to capture in the photos, but its a beautiful rusty orange that shifts to gold and even some green when you look at it from different angles. But, to be honest, the star of the show here is the playability and flexibility of this instrument. It is an absolute joy to play with the thin profile neck, stainless steel frets and impeccable setup. John and the EBMM team really thought of everything and nailed the execution.
So many tones to be had with one guitar. Obviously the Dimarzio Liquifire and Crunch Lab combo sound great, but you also have a built in preamp boost on a push/pull pot, AND a full stereo piezo pickup system built into the saddles of the tremolo bridge.
Condition is excellent++ no serious dings or dents that we can find, but we pretty much never call used guitars "mint" because surely some keen eyes will be able to find some signs of use. But its super clean and all original. Ships in the original John Petrucci badged molded ABS case with all the hangtags and case candy.
