Question JPX during the South America tour (and a question)

[windover20]

Hello again,

I found some videos of John Petrucci playing JPX during the South America tour.

How often does he update his homepage?
I dont think I saw JPX in his gears page...

My question is about the arm scoop of JPX.
I saw several people commenting about how great the arm scoop of Jp6 is when I was asking about JP6 and JPX...
Does that mean that JPX doesn't have the arm scoop like the JP6?
Might be a stupid question, but just to make sure since its hard for me to get a chance to see actual JPX...

Thanks a lot!

I don't think the gear page has been updated since last year when he first got that Mark V rig. I'm sure he'll update it soon, I'm sure things have been changed in his rig since then, and he's probably using that rig for the Maiden tour.

The last time John updated his website was April 16th when he won the "Best Metal Guitarist" award. Maybe you're looking at a different page though.

And no the JPX does not have the same arm scoop as the regular JP. The regular JP really looks and feels like a scoop, while the BFR's is not nearly as aggressive.
