An Accessible “Majesty”: The Petrucci Spirit in the Sterling by Music Man Range
The Majesty model marks a real turning point in the Sterling by Music Man universe: a resolutely contemporary silhouette, performance-oriented playing comfort and technical choices designed for demanding guitarists. Developed in close collaboration with John Petrucci, this MAJ200XQM-CPD adopts the features that have built the reputation of the “Majesty” family: a stage guitar designed for precision, stability and versatility, with a strong visual identity thanks to its figured maple top and glossy finishing.
Who is the MAJ200XQM-CPD for, and which styles does it excel in?
This 6-string electric guitar is primarily aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists looking for a modern, comfortable Super-Strat ready for fast techniques (legato, alternate picking and tapping). It feels particularly at home in progressive rock, metal, fusion and modern rock, while remaining convincing for rounder, more expressive tones thanks to the neck pickup and tone control.
The Sound
The DiMarzio duo gives the MAJ200XQM-CPD an immediately “studio and stage” tonal palette. The DiMarzio Crunch Lab in the bridge position delivers a punchy attack, tight low end and excellent clarity in high-gain chords, making it perfect for tight rhythm parts and articulate riffs. The DiMarzio LiquiFire in the neck position provides a warmer, singing character, ideal for thick leads, legato passages and rounded clean tones.
The passive electronics remain simple and effective, with a 3-way selector and an intuitive pair of controls. The real bonus is the push/push volume control with 12 dB boost: a very practical level boost for cutting through the mix during a solo, adding density to a passage or compensating for a drop in volume when changing sounds. In terms of construction, the nyatoh (body and neck) promotes a balanced tonal range with a solid low-mid foundation, while the ebony key enhances attack and precision, especially useful with such a flat radius.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To stay as close as possible to the original feel, opt for Ernie Ball Regular Slinky 10-46 strings (the same gauge as the factory setup). A selection of picks (depending on your attack) will usefully complete the setup and help you make the most of the pickups’ full dynamics.
