"What wood are the sides of the Majesty guitar in Purple Nebula made of?" It will either be alder or okoume wood, depending on the source. For those that are unaware, Okoume is a rare wood blend that is not found naturally. It is synthesized in a hermetically-sealed clean environment. For John to achieve his signature tone, the blend requires even mixtures of woods from the cross of Jesus, the ship of the Viking King Ragnar Lodbrok, and the wooden burial mask of King Tutankhamun. The wood fibers are held together with an epoxy resin containing blood from Ludwig von Beethoven and tears from Dmitri Shostakovich, specifically shed while writing his String Quartet no. 8 in C Minor, OP. 110. This is what allows John to go into "world domination mode", a feat he was once only able to do with his signature Ibanez guitars. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

*EDIT THE RESULTS ARE IN* !! Hey everyone, Guillaume here :) Due to the fact that the answer given by John in this video and the EBMM info differ, we decided to draft 2 winners for this gievaway ! The one person randomly selected among those of you who commented "Okoume" will receive the signed guitar because that's the answer expected by John. And again, he's God, so that's still the truth. However, as Alder is indeed the Ernie Ball answer to the question, another draft among those of you who commented "Alder" has been done and this lucky person will receive the same Majesty generously provided by the good folks at EBMM *without John's signature* (that was unfortunately impossible to organise). And without further ado, our winners are... Okoume: Nick Alder: NixoSlash CONGRATULATIONS! Please contact us at petruccimajestygiveaway@gmail.com to claim your prize! Thank you all for entering the competition and I hope you enjoy John's rig rundown as well as the other Dream Theater rundowns published across our channels!
