Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Mystic Dream Majesty Premium Select 8 is the fixed-bridge, eight-string version of John Petrucci’s Majesty platform. Its neck-through construction joins a Honduran mahogany neck with alder wings and a maple top, while the multi-scale ebony board runs from 25.5 to 27 inches. Custom slanted DiMarzio humbuckers supply the magnetic pickup voices; the piezo system adds another selectable path. With a piezo volume, push/push boost, custom pickup configurations, and mono/stereo switching, it is equipped for detailed routing decisions at the instrument.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Eight-string arrangements that need a multi-scale neck and fixed-bridge setup.
- Live or studio systems using magnetic pickup tones alongside piezo-derived acoustic-style textures.
- Dark stages where glow-in-the-dark side dots improve position visibility.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who prefer a floating tremolo.
- Players who require a seven-string guitar.
- Left-handed players.
