another EBMM fan here 
have 2 mystic dream JP6's one fully loaded and one without piezo or inlays. both are fantastic, but the new one just feels so much tighter and nicer to play well that was before i put hybrid slinkys on the older one did the world of good.
will post pics in due time.

the new one with the piezo and D-sonic to me is much tighter.
well the non-piezo (older) has the steve special bridge and its great, but to me the D-sonic sounds better, more definition. and the piezo sounds AMAZING! i run it straight into the PA through a DI and it sounds superb.

I foolishly sold a gorgeous Candy Apple Red Silhouette Special HSS Sweet axe.

Funny, I much prefer the Steve's Special, which I have in one of my other guitars. I was disappointed when it was replaced with the D-Sonic in my newer JP-6. It's nice, but I think the SS was a bit sweeter to my ears, and is a very articulate pickup even when playing with high gain.

The guitars sound exactly the same. The piezo acoustic pickups are in addition to the DiMarzio magnetic pickups, wired to deliver authentic acoustic guitar tones independent of your electric guitar tones.
They sound great and add significantly to what you can do with the guitar, but if you only care about electric guitar tones from your guitar, then both versions sound the same. They each have DiMarzio D-Sonic in the bridge and a custom neck pickup similar to the Air Norton.
Here's an in-depth review of the JP-6 guitar:

After a long search I finally got a Musicman Luke yesterday. Love these guitars, the necks are just fabulous, never had active PUP's before and these EMG's are superb, super clear but dirty up great.

Lukes are awesome but the neck is a bit to thick for me. I think the JP neck is perfection though! My BFR should be here any day now...

Compared to an LP the Luke neck is a bit thinner for sure! It's very close to a wide fat neck on a PRS... I prefer the wide thin neck on the PRS guitars...

After play a les paul with a super huge neck i just got a brand new one piece mohangy axis and i love it! It has that deep warm sound of the les paul but feels so much better I know feel like the les paul is a handicap or a good work out
