| Comments | In 1996, the first Peavey Wolfgang guitars appeared, and were produced until 2004.
After the split between Peavey and Eddie Van Halen, Peavey wanted to continue construction of the Wolfgang style. They couldn’t use the name, but were also no longer bound to a stricter set of options. Enter the Peavey HP Special (HP standing for Hartley Peavey). It’s based on the Wolfgang but with options like a lockable floating trem and somewhat different body and head shapes. They were built in the same plant, on the same machinery, and at first by the same people. This 2006 Peavey HP Special is in great condition, with very little wear. It’s a comfortable, versatile guitar. |

In the headstock – front photo you can see the stringing trick for Floyds – put the strings on backwards, with the ball ends at the tuners. |
