NGD: Peavey Wolfgang Archtop

[cyndicate]

Got the Wolfgang yesterday, but ended up doing a full setup on it last night after work. Its pretty nice having a stop tail bridge, makes tuning and setups so much easier.

The flamed maple top gives the guitar a more brighter tone than my other guitars but I haven't really played too long on it yet. The neck is a little thicker than my Strat, but it's really easy to play on it, which was surprising to me because I have small hands, The cutaway makes access to the higher frets so much easier than my Strat also. Not sure if I am keeping it yet, but plugged it into the Mark IV and am liking it so far. Can't wait for the Vintage Modern to get here to try on that. I am too used to having the pickup selector at the volume/tone knob area that I have to get used to changing pups on this guitar, and the way its setup is foreign to me (up is bridge, down is neck). I get off of work lately usually so I haven't had a chance to play this thing at higher volumes, but hopefully I can test it out again tomorrow before I have to slave it up again at work over the weekend.

Here are some bad pics of the guitar and my current setup, I would do clips but its getting too late at night and I live in a townhouse, plus I suck so you wouldn't really want to hear me play . And yes my guitars all hung all misaligned and my settings are way off at the moment

That's a nice set of guitars you have there, even if they are hanging crooked .

Damn honky, clean that garage up

it used to be clean, until tax season hit, now whatever gets left in there, stays at that same spot forever

Very cool. I have a Wolfgang Standard and an EB/MM Axis...I just love those guitars. I tend not to play them alot in my band since we change tunings on the fly, but it would be very cool to have the stop-tail version.

Great looking guitar though

Those are the only Peavey products I've ever liked.

MusicMan guitar and Mark IV combo!

That's a great looking top on that MM. I love their stuff, and their customer service is second to none. Underrated company IMHO.
