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.
