Uncompromising Peavey Quality in a Hard-hitting 6-string
Exquisite tonewoods. Searing electronics. High-quality features. Peavey's beastly HP 2 Poplar Burl possesses all of this and so much more. Following Peavey's long lineage of exceptional products, this solidbody electric guitar is a no-nonsense machine that will instantly put an end to your quest for phenomenal tone and playability. Its rock-solid tonewood cocktail accentuates your playing, with a graphite-reinforced, roasted maple neck and a matching fingerboard for long-lasting reliability and light-speed fretting. To supply a distinct sound, Peavey threw two custom-wound humbuckers into the HP 2 Poplar Burl, ideal for channeling varying shades of rock and metal tones while letting you explore and develop your own unique voice. There's even a Peavey-branded Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo onboard for adding textures to solos and leads. With the Peavey HP 2 Poplar Burl in your stable, a vast world of sonic possibilities is always at your disposal.

Graphite-reinforced neck for superior stability
From head to toe, the HP 2 Poplar Burl boasts top-notch tonewoods that bring out the best in your playing. It all starts with the mid-forward acoustic tone provided by its basswood body, which is perfect for letting the HP 2 Poplar Burl's incredible electronics shine through — even in the midst of a hard-rocking band. One look at the neck is all it takes to see why the HP 2 Poplar Burl sits at the top of its class. This roasted maple neck with matching fingerboard is reinforced with graphite bars, imbuing the HP 2 Poplar Burl with heavy-duty stability that lasts for the long run. By utilizing graphite, the HP 2 Poplar Burl's neck has a much easier time staying straight and snappy, perfect for long stretches on the road without your favorite guitar tech on standby.


Custom-wound pickups deliver unmatched aggression
Peavey loaded the HP 2 Poplar Burl with a pair of custom-wound pickups that were designed in-house. Constructed using a 2-step wax dipping method for low-noise operation and feedback resistance, these humbuckers pump out plenty of punch and power to handle rock and metal's most aggressive styles. Even better, these humbuckers are mounted directly to the body for enhanced response and professional-quality sound at all volume levels. And since Peavey added a Switchcraft 3-way toggle to the HP 2 Poplar Burl, dialing in the perfect tone is as easy as flicking a switch.

Floyd Rose tremolo tailor-made for bends and deep dives
There's a reason countless players have relied on Floyd Rose locking tremolos for decades — when it comes to twists, turns, and squeals while staying in tune, few trem systems come close! As the go-to choice for iconic players like the late Edward Van Halen, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Tom Morello — as well as many of us at Sweetwater — Floyd Rose locking tremolos are a solid professional-quality option for discerning guitarists. Everything from big bends to subtle warbles is at your disposal with the HP 2 Poplar Burl's Peavey-branded Floyd Rose tremolo — throw on the arm, lock it down, and go crazy!
