1989 Peavey Generation S-2 Electric Guitar With Original Case.Great Condition. 

"The S2 was manufactured in Mississippi from 1989 to 1992.  Tele-shaped solid mahoganey body with a maple cap similar to a Les Paul or PRS.  Weight is comparable to a Paul, yes, they are heavy.  25.5" scale flamed maple neck with ebony fingerboard and abalone fret marker inlays.  Schaller die-cast tuners, Kahler Spyder locking tremolo, Peavey Active pickups (humbucker in the bridge, single coil in the neck) designed by Bartolini.  The S2 has one volume and one tone, a three way pickup selector switch, and what seems to be a coil tap switch for the humbucker, but on closer inspection, it turns out to be a "faux coil tap" that introduces a capacitor into the circuit to mimic the tonal qualities of a coil tap, but without sacrificing the quiet operation of the humbucker.  The S2 is a beautiful instrument.  MSRP in 1989 was $1300 and they came in a variety of unique finishes.  I own three S2 Gennys.  My first is a translucent red with a flamed maple top and gold hardware, the second is hot pink (e.g. Pepto Bismol!) with black hardware, and the third is an interesting silver and black metallic swirl pattern that kind of reminds me of a bowling ball...  ;-)  The "Bowling Ball" has black hardware too.  All of the finishes have a solid urenthane clear coat to protect them and resist the aging process, which the S2's do very well.  These guitars were over-built in more ways than one, and are equal or superior to high-end custom guitars that cost thousands of dollars today.  One feature that the S2's don't have, but they should, is accurate production numbers from Peavey.  Peavey is one of the best companies to deal with in terms of customer service, but at the time they were manufacturing the S1, S2, and S3 Generation Series guitars, they didn't keep accurate records of how many they produced.  Or at least that's what they tell me.  This lack of accurate production figures limits the desirablility of these instruments to serious collectors, which could be a good thing if you look at what happens to vintage guitar prices once serious collectors get involved...  Collectable or not, the S2 is a great guitar with many desirable features and boutique-level quality.  The people I know who own S2 Genny's don't sell them, and for good reason.  It would cost over $2000 USD to build a similar guitar today.  My S2's are all keepers.".
