Watch the video of John Petrucci shredding with his signature guitar

Dream Theater guitarist and founder John Petrucci appears in a new video promoting Ernie Ball guitars, as well as the classic Nintendo video game, Super Mario Bros.

Nintendo's relationship with Rock and Heavy Metal is nothing new, as several characters have been named after Rock stars such as the Reznors, Lemmy Koopa, and Wendy O. Koopa.

Nintendo even used a snippet of the song "A Light In The Black" by Rainbow.

The video begins with guitarist FamilyJules opening his front door and finding Petrucci and his guitar ready to play.

In addition to the flourishes and improvisations that Petrucci adds to the original theme, the video ends with the two guitarists discussing Petrucci's signature line called "Majesty," which was the original name of Dream Theater.
