Peavey V-Type EXP limited edition with licensed Floyd Rose tremolo

By far my favorite guitar!
A Korean handmade masterpiece!

The V-Type EXP plays and feels like it’s designed perfectly for playing Heavy Metal and Shredding !

Everything about its look and its shape; to me, is just perfect!

I admit that it could probably do with an upgrade from the standard pick-ups. And the sound can be, for lack of a better word muddy and unclear when playing fast or complex riffs. A good idea is to upgrade the pick-ups to better quality like, Seymour Duncans, Dimarzio Evolution or EMG Ceramic Hum Buckers.
From what I’ve read with better pick-ups the body can deliver a quality of sound far beyond what was expected of it!

I have also read a few horror stories regarding the build quality of a few V-Types out there.
I guess with all products, a certain percentage are likely to be flawed. A lot of people have also stated (in random forums) they have experienced fantastic build quality.
So I have to agree, the build quality is brilliant and feels really tough! An ideal guitar for playing gigs.

And as far as playability goes; as long as you know what you’re doing with a Floyd Rose, it’s a dream to play!
The action comes low, just as I like it and if your prefer a higher action; with the right tweaks you can achieve the ideal action to suit your needs!
