Music Man BFR JP15 Butterscotch Burl

What we say:

At A Glance

The Music Man BFR JP15 Butterscotch Burl stands out from the crowd thanks to its impressive figured top. The wood choices on this guitar are very impressive and it certainly elevates this already very capable signature model from the Dream Theater guitar god. Armed with excellent hardware and pickups, we know it is up to any task that comes its way but the really impressive thing here is the amount of time and detail that has gone into crafting the guitar. BFR models are always a delight and this one had us at first sight!

Features We Love:

Wood Choices

Throughout this model we are treated to some truly astounding wood choices. The body has been finely carved from black limba with a buckeye burl top which is further enhanced by the Butterscotch finish which showcases the burl perfectly. A roasted figured maple neck and rosewood fingerboard complete the package, giving you some of the finest selections possible for tonal excellence, smooth playability and stunning looks.

BFR Limited Edition

The Ball Family Reserve Series was launched as "a celebration of the company's heritage in instrument craftsmanship." Each guitar in the BFR series is made in limited numbers, allowing you the chance to get an expertly crafted rare guitar that was previously reserved for Ernie Ball family members and signature artists.

Tonal Versatility

If you need a single guitar to cover all scenarios then this could be the one for you. From the pair of DiMarzio Illuminator humbuckers you can get all the heavy sounds you might need. If you need to kick things up a notch then there is a 20dB gain boost on hand plus the Fishman Powerbridge piezo saddles lets you achieve acoustic style sounds, all from this one stunning signature model!

Who Is It For?

Fans of Dream Theater and John's playing will be right at home here. It is also a top choice for the demanding contemporary guitarist looking to execute precision playing on a finely crafted instrument.
