<div class="bbWrapper">Hello people:<br /> <br /> I&#039;m from Puerto Rico and I just put a Music Man Petrucci signature guitar in Layaway. I&#039;ve heard that this is a very, very good guitar and the components are great quality but I want to know that from people that already has this guitar.<br /> <br /> <b>What&#039;s your feedback about this guitar?</b> <br /> <br /> I&#039;m going to pay $1,500.00 with all the goodies in it.<br /> <br /> Thanks</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I have two of them myself and have posted numerous times about how the &quot;feel&quot; of this gem got me hooked. In fact, there is only one other guitar I would ever play and it is in a very high price range. I have tried just about all other makes and this is the one that gave me that religious experience. Best guitar I have ever played and own. But beware, like me, you need more. It&#039;s a habit. I am shopping for another one now. You have spent your money wisely. Any EBMM is a wise purchase my friend. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool :cool:" data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I love mine too... The piezo is such a great option, you said you got all the goodies, so I&#039;m assuming you meant the piezo as well. <br /> <br /> The only thing I wish I could have been able to do when I bought mine was get one of the sparkle finishes, especially the Blue Dawn. I know it doesn&#039;t make the guitar sound any different, it&#039;s just a cool color.<br /> <br /> And as koogie2k said, they&#039;re addictive. I&#039;m in the market for another EB, probably an Axis this time around. Maybe I&#039;ll be able to score another Petrucci in a cool color one day.<br /> <br /> Enjoy your guitar, and don&#039;t forget to post pics when you get it.<br /> <br /> fred</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Nice color. I like the carbon blue, graphite pearl and sapphire black myself. Rolls Burgundy isn&#039;t so bad either.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper"><b>I got it.... yessssss</b><br /> <br /> Hi:<br /> <br /> I just got the MM Petrucci and it looks super...<br /> <br /> I have a question.... Why this guitar comes with a gauge of 10 and is tuned one hole tone lower (D).<br /> <br /> Is this how Petrucci uses this guitar... Can I just replace this strings with a gauge of 9 and tune the guitar to E - 440?<br /> <br /> Let me know, thanks</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">To be honest I&#039;d the tens on it. Just tune it up to standard. Sometimes shipping can cause that.</div>
