DREAM THEATER guitarist John Petrucci's website reports:

"This new signature model (click image at left to enlarge) is being released to commemorate 10 years of collaboration with Dream Theater guitarist John Petrucci. The new body shape has a slightly thinner upper horn and a more symmetric bridge end profile. The body is also chambered for added acoustic resonance. To read more about it and its specs, please visit the Music-Man website ."

I Heart Guitar Blog's Peter Hodgson recently issued a new interview with Petrucci, in which he confirms that he's started work on his next solo CD.

The following is an excerpt:

Q: So what’s next after this tour? Are you gonna do another solo album soon?

A: "You know, a lot of people ask me about that, and I did start to write, finally! I got the bug, I got bit by it, I started to write this music and I’ve been in a nice writing flow. So I hope to finish writing the material and get to record next year. So I’m psyched about that."

Q: Any idea where it’s heading yet?

A: "Yeah, I have a total idea where it’s heading. I don’t like to really talk about it but I think by now people kinda know my style and what I do, and hopefully it’ll be more of that!"
