Overview

Exquisite tonewoods, signature Petrucci style.

The Ernie Ball Music Man BFR Majesty electric guitar represents the pinnacle of John Petrucci's innovative signature line, delivering next-level performance and unparalleled artistry. As part of the exclusive Ball Family Reserve collection, it showcases premium tonewoods, a neck-thru-body design and meticulously detailed appointments that set it apart from standard production models. Available in two stunning finishes—Malachite, with a quilted maple top and alder wings, and Wolf's Bane, with a maple burl top and black limba wings—this limited run highlights the Majesty's status as both a technical powerhouse and an heirloom-worthy instrument. With its dual DiMarzio humbuckers, piezo-equipped tremolo bridge and advanced switching options, the BFR Majesty is built to handle everything from searing leads to nuanced clean textures, all with signature Petrucci precision.

The Ball Family Reserve: Showcasing the World's Finest Tonewoods

Each Ball Family Reserve instrument begins with a selection of some of the finest tonewoods available. The BFR Majesty is offered in two mesmerizing finishes—Malachite and Wolf's Bane—each showcasing an inspired tonewood pairing. The Malachite edition features a quilted maple top over resonant alder wings, delivering balanced warmth and clarity with a striking green luster. The Wolf's Bane edition pairs a maple burl top with black limba wings, adding a darker visual character and a touch more midrange complexity to the voice. Both are finished in high-gloss polyester, which enhances the depth of the figured tops while ensuring long-lasting durability. Together, these carefully chosen tonewoods provide a versatile tonal foundation, offering articulate attack, rich sustain and a look worthy of the Ball Family Reserve name.

Neck-Thru Mahogany/Maple Construction for Exceptional Stability and Sustain

The Majesty's neck-thru-body design is central to its unmatched feel and response. Built from a three-piece laminate of Honduran mahogany and flamed maple, the slim C-shaped neck provides remarkable stability and sustain while remaining fast and comfortable under the fingers. Topping the neck is an ebony fingerboard with 24 stainless-steel frets, Atlante Majesty inlays and a flat 17" radius designed for modern technical playing. Glow-in-the-dark side dots provide visibility on dark stages, while the neck-thru design ensures smooth upper-fret access, making it ideal for players who demand precision across the entire range of the instrument.

DiMarzio Humbuckers and Active Preamp for Complete Tonal Control

At the heart of the BFR Majesty's advanced electronics are Petrucci's signature DiMarzio pickups: the Dream Catcher in the bridge and Rainmaker in the neck, both in striking chrome Majesty covers. These custom humbuckers deliver articulate high-gain aggression balanced with singing lead tones and lush cleans. The Music Man active preamp offers expanded control, with push/push volume for 20dB of gain boost and push/push tone for coil-splitting versatility. The onboard three-way magnetic selector and three-way magnetic/piezo toggle let players blend or isolate pickup voices with ease. With the ability to switch between mono and stereo outputs, the Majesty adapts seamlessly to any rig, from high-gain stacks to studio recording setups.

Piezo-Equipped Tremolo Bridge and Pro-Grade Hardware

The Majesty's custom Music Man floating tremolo is fitted with Fishman Powerbridge piezo saddles, unlocking authentic acoustic-like tones at the flip of a switch. This dual-voice capability gives players everything from shimmering cleans to heavy distortion without switching guitars. Chrome hardware, Schaller locking tuners and custom JP control knobs with rubber grips ensure tuning stability and stage-ready reliability. The guitar ships in a Mono softshell case and includes a numbered certificate of authenticity, along with a tremolo cover signed by Petrucci, underscoring its collectible status. Every detail, from the custom chrome pickup covers to the fast, responsive tremolo system, reflects the BFR Majesty's premium build quality.

A Limited-Edition Masterpiece Built for Sonic Exploration

The Ernie Ball Music Man BFR Majesty electric guitar is the stunning culmination of a years-long collaboration between John Petrucci and Music Man's elite builders. Limited to just 100 units per finish, it represents a rare opportunity for players and collectors alike. With its combination of top-tier tonewoods, advanced electronics, premium appointments and unmatched playability, the BFR Majesty is built to inspire the most demanding guitarists. Whether on stage, in the studio or proudly displayed as the crown jewel of your collection, this limited-edition masterpiece delivers the full scope of Petrucci's vision in an instrument that feels as extraordinary as it looks.
