Peavey HP2 Available Again?

[alan67]

Not sure what the deal was on these a few years ago. I guess a few got made but I could never find one. Had one on-hold at Sweetwater for months and finally my rep just said, yeah Peavey totally flaked and isn't going to deliver them to us.

Suddenly they'll be available again? I guess timing is everything.

Years ago I could have jumped on one for 1600$ Canadian ..wish I had because all of a sudden prices went up and they were nowhere to be found. I would say their timing is very deliberate now that there is a nostalgia EVH craze following his recent passing ...I guess you can't fault them for making a smart business decision. EVH the brand is going to be selling dog mats to shower curtains so why not get in on the profits.

Except they announced this months ago.

My bad, I guess Google feed is tracking me and thinks i might be interested....they were right! Either way, not a bad business move in the end!
