Construction

Body

The body of this instrument is constructed of select basswood 

chosen specifically for tonal qualities as well as for weight char-

acteristics.   The HP special with transparent finishes also feature 

a beautiful AAA maple top.   The offset, asymmetrical body 

design offers comfort, proper balance and maximum playing 

ease. 

Neck

The select hard rock maple neck is crafted to provide 

unmatched rigidity and freedom from warpage. Additional 

strength is provided by the dual graphite reinforcement bars 

and an easy access, adjustable steel torsion rod. (see 

Adjustments–Torsion Rod for adjustment instructions.)

Pickups

The two Peavey hum cancelling pickups, custom hand-wound 

in our Meridian, Mississippi custom shop, supply optimal output 

and tonal response. A two-step wax dipping process is used to 

provide ultra-low noise operation and resistance to microphonic 

feedback. The pickups are mounted DIRECTLY TO THE BODY, 

which further reduces feedback at high volume levels and offers 

enhanced tonal response.

Controls

Pickup selector switch (1)

This three-position switch allows 

selection of pickups in various com-

binations. The selection possibilities 

are as follows:

• Up = Bridge pickup

• Center = Both pickups

• Down = Neck pickup

Volume (2)

The volume knob controls the 

total signal delivered from both 

pickups. Rotating clockwise will increase volume; rotat-

ing counterclockwise will reduce volume.
