SE Orianthi Model
“This PRS is perfect for anyone who wants an awesome quality, versatile, rockin’ guitar at an affordable price. I love it; try it out!” - " Orianthi ". Orianthi has been playing PRS since 1997 when she traded acoustic for electric guitar after seeing Carlos Santana in concert in her native Australia. Less than ten years later, Carlos Santana affirmed, “If I was going to pass the baton to somebody, she would be my first choice.” Orianthi has jammed with and supported such legendary musicians as Carlos Santana, Steve Vai, ZZ Top, and Michael Jackson, more than earning her spot as a guitar great.
The 2012 SE Orianthi recieves the new beveled SE carve and push/pull tone control with 3-way blade switch (previously a 3-way toggle with no coil tapping). The guitar goddess’s finish is also changing – from Red Sparkle to Scarlet Red.

Though primarily self-taught, he attended Berklee College of Music in Boston in the 1980's, where he learned jazz composition and harmony.

Dream Theater has recorded ten albums and has currently just completed a worldwide tour supporting the Systematic Chaos album. In 1999 John Petrucci and Music Man's Research and Design team collaborated on a new John Petrucci signature model guitar. Both 6 and 7 string models have since been fan favorites achieving worldwide success. 2006 marked the introduction of John and Music Man's newest version, The JP Ball Family Reserve. An upgrade version featuring a mahogany Tone block with Mahogany neck and Beautiful Maple top. This new BFR is John's main touring instrument and is available worldwide.
