Ernie Ball "Majesty"

Guitarists around the world are salivating at the mouth for a chance to pick up Ernie Ball's latest guitar model, the John Petrucci signature guitar titled "Majesty".  Check out some of the photos here from the Ernie Ball Forums and a brief description of the guitar and why it is considered to be a game changer in the music world.  More specs to be released as it becomes more available!


 

I know this might be an easy question for those attached to a computer and die hard Dream Theater fans, but does anyone know why they called the guitar "Majesty"?  No prizes to be given for the right answer, but you will have my respect (if that's worth anything to you haha).

 


"The guitar is super super light...the 'carbon fiber' is not what it seems....it is laser etched maple that is finished to resemble carbon fiber the guys did an amazing job. the access is absolutely crazy good....the ergonomics were the primary deal and it balances really well.... It has a game changer in it and is set to just be a switch but as we introduce the gc incrementally you can activate if you choose but it is not mandatory  The guitar has been voiced by di marzio and we have done sonic thumbprint matching....I will tell you about it someday. The design and construction techniques are cutting edge and like I could only have imagined ten years ago." -Big Poppa (Ernie Ball Forums Moderator)

And of course the company released a seven string as well:


Would you buy one given a reasonable price?  Would you buy it regardless?  Obviously colours can change when being manufactured, but what do you think of the design and layout?
