MESA/Boogie Tone Summit: John Petrucci, Doug West and the JP-2C

John Petrucci and Mesa’s Director of R & D, Doug West, came together in McKinney, Texas at the beautiful Guitar Sanctuary Performance Hall to discuss all things Tone, amps, guitars, gear, and the inside design story behind the JP-2C.

In this video, John discusses the three main sounds that he uses while playing some Dream Theater riffs and improvisation to demonstrate a variety of tones from the JP-2C.

Doug shares his insights from the design side and his work alongside Mesa Founder & Designer Randall Smith to develop what is the most accurate re-issue of the famed Mark IIC+ circuit in the JP2C.

Great playing and tones, an amazing room and a friendship between John & Doug for almost 30 years led to a memorable event of laughs, learning and excellent Tone.

Recorded with John Petrucci’s Signature Ernie Ball Music Man JP 16 six and seven string guitars into stereo JP2C heads and two Rectifier 4x12 Traditional cabinets. Mic’d with a Sennheiser 421 and a Beyer Dynamic 160 on one side and a AER AR22 and an SM57 on the other cab with a stereo pair of Earthworks QTC-50 Room mics blended in at 10% of the final mix.
