When is the 10th anniversary of MM JP?

**Bruce** · 07-11-2007, 08:47 PM

The answer might be obvious, but I am not sure about the year MM JP was born.

Can anyone tell me, please?

I'll have to save money to get the JP 10th!

Thank you!

2010, I think.

I think it's next week.

**Bruce** · 07-11-2007, 08:57 PM

I thought it was 2011

You are correct! That was all just a test, you see, yes, a test, I wasn't wrong, not at all...

Anyway, just did some research and the JP was released in July 2001.

Plaschkes,
Thank you very much for helping me!

I really did not know and I am glad your research demonstrates 2011 instead of 2010.
That's 1 more year to plan and save money!

Your welcome, Bruce my man!

That is plenty of time... I think I'll get an F1 first.

That must have been one heck of a birthday present (JPs birthday is july 12th) OH SH*Thats TODAY

Happy Birthday John Petrucci

They were definitely prototyping in 2000. JP was playing prototypes on the Metropolis 2000 tour. See Dream Theater - Metropolis 2000: Scenes from New York DVD. However, I don't know for sure when they went into production.

The first production JP models were completed & shipped in the first 3 weeks of June 2001.

It's all here, for the most part...
