John Petrucci's Go-to Dampener
John Petrucci — guitarist extraordinaire, composer, and co-founder of Dream Theater — needs high-quality tools to reduce unwanted noise and unpleasant overtones for his masterful speed, high-gain tones, and alternate picking. As a longtime Ernie Ball Music Man signature artist, Petrucci teamed up with both Ernie Ball and Gruv Gear to create the John Petrucci Signature FretWrap. This handy accessory slides over the headstock to dampen string noise and is adjustable so you can dial in everything from a soft dampening to a strong mute. Gruv Gear FretWraps are especially popular with studio musicians, tapping enthusiasts, and technical players. They’re also an unsung hero in the tool kit of many Sweetwater guitarists. Adorned with Petrucci’s personal logo, this wrap’s distinctive style is perfect for Dream Theater superfans, or anyone looking for an easy, effective way to dampen their strings for precise performance and consistent tone.
