Peavey Announces PXD Series, Calls Them "Extreme Electric Guitars"
Peavey introduces the PXD Series, a breed of extreme electric guitars aimed at modern metal players. With supercharged active pickups coupled directly to slabs of tone-sustaining mahogany, the Peavey PXD Series complements the Peavey 6505 Series guitar amplifiers. The series launches with four distinct models: the Tomb, Twenty-Three, Tragic, and Void, with a range of feature options including Kahler tremolos, adjustable bridges with a string-through design, and wicked designs that ship with Coffin Case cases or gig bags. The initial launch of PXD guitars will offer satin black finish with aged aluminum pickguard, inlay, and truss rod cover, with additional options to follow. The guitars feature Peavey VFL active pickups, or EMG pickups with the EMG-AB Afterburner tone circuit, which boosts input gain up to 20 dB for high levels of saturation. The MSRP for the guitars ranges from $399.99 to $899.99.
