This is something I do for fun.  Mostly, I just enjoy the guitars, the music and everything that goes with it!  I became an authorized Peavey dealer in late 2004 with the sole purpose of dealing with the Custom Shop guitars.  I have sold well over 100 HP Special guitars on this site as a Peavey dealer in the past couple years. 

ALL guitars include the original hardshell case  and are NEW with warranty unless otherwise noted.  You can contact me at knappg@att.net if you are interested in any of these guitars.  I can take Paypal with a confirmed address, money orders, cashiers checks, wire transfers and personal checks with a holding period for them to clear.  I will ship internationally.  Shipping to most international destinations in Europe and other areas runs between $100 and $150 ninety percent of the time.

Update 07-21-17:   After ending production of the HP Special in 2010 and discontinuing guitar production in the U.S. Peavey has now announced a new guitar (built in MS) called the HP2. It is essentially a Wolfgang with HP Special electronics (coil tap pick-ups). It doesn't have a Dtuna but is set up so that one can be easily added. It was introduced at the summer NAMM show (July 11-13). Right now it comes in an arch top version only. It comes in 10 colors. 8 are flame tops and the other two are black and ivory. It comes in a tremolo and stop tail version. The stop tail and trem price are the same (list price of $2,499). I have placed my first order for 10 of them that I will list on the site at $1,999 (lowest I am allowed to list them for) when they arrive. Right now orders are expected to be 90 days out, thus I am expecting them at the end of October. Contact me if you want to order one and about pricing. There are no custom orders being accepted at this time by Peavey.

E-Mail Problems -  I on occasion have had people report rejected e-mails by AT&T. If you send to knappg@att.net and it bounces back to you try Geoff@RockNRollWeekend.com.  If you don't get a response in 24 hours try the other address.  I have not had any reported problems in quite awhile.
