i would say both. a few things he said on fourmspring hinted that he was pretty pissed off with peavy. i would absolutely love for him to go back to esp providing they give him a sig. preferably a white tele

and if i cant dream; a horizon 7 string sig

Peavey are ....in’ shit! Devin deserves better. It ridiculous how long this has dragged on for. Peavey are supposed to be in the business of making musical equipment. So why is it so hard for them to make a guitar that is to Devin's specs? It's not like Devin has asked them to build him a guitar that has the ability to transform into a stealth fighter jet. He’s asking for what seems to be a fairly straight forward guitar design. Peavey have luthiers who are supposedly trained/skilled at making guitars. So make him a ....in' production model guitar!

Jim Antonio · 01-21-2012, 04:29 AM

I have to agree. From Eddie Van Halen to Greg Howe to Josh Rand to Mike Stone, Peavey can't seem to keep it together when making signature guitars. Heck, even the distribution of production guitars like the Peavey HP Special EX & the Session Guitar were so poorly done that everybody just stopped caring or giving a dime about their guitar line. I think they're better off making PA, Recording gear & video game controllers!

Their relationship with Devin seems to be a pretty good microcosm of Peavey's shortcomings. The fact is that I was planning to lay down a thousand dollars to own Devin's custom guitar, and for the better part of 2 years I had that money ear marked for the guitar. From release dates to spec changes to delays to massive price increases, they made mistake after mistake until the guitar was no longer on my radar. I would still love to own a Dev signature 7, but I can't see myself saving up basically another thousand dollars for this guitar. For that kind of money I'm halfway to a Vik Nolly sig

Prydogga · 01-21-2012, 05:34 AM

Any of Devin's custom ESPs brought into production would make amazing sigs. I think in one of the old SYL videos he had a qhite version of his beautiful 7 string Horizon. That would be an amazing sig, ESP or Ltd.

ppinkham · 01-25-2012, 01:37 AM

When Devin was auctioning off some equipment last year on eBay he mentioned that he was going to put that tele up for sale. I was pretty bummed that he didn't.

Its been 7 days...

...Like I said, I hope ESP takes Devin back.

rjnix_0329 · 01-27-2012, 05:54 AM

I don't want to sound like a broken record of discontent, and like I said they have probably already lost me, but seriously? This STILL isn't happening?

This thread was started over two years ago. That's nuts.

ppinkham · 02-01-2012, 02:39 AM

Ok, someone posted a pic of theirs on facebook, so they are out there.

toiletstand · 02-01-2012, 03:01 AM

theres a review in guitar world mag and a full page ad.

rjnix_0329 · 03-11-2012, 11:51 AM

Is anyone playing one of these yet!?

Asrial · 03-11-2012, 04:34 PM

Not what I know of, no.

I'm still waiting for this guitar to be released, but Peavey is sort of slow (read: Valve-time).

LetsMosey · 03-11-2012, 08:46 PM

I saw a couple of these at a GC close to my work. I wouldn't buy one... but I'm also no fan of Peavey guitars.

ha, given all that's gone on with this guitar I'm not surprised photographic evidence is being asked for.

Just called a buddy of mine that works there, turns out it is a PXD Vicious, but it's the II model, and not the signature 7 baritone. Like I said, I don't like Peavey guitars so I didn't pay that much attention to it, other than that it was a PXD; which is still a DT model, just not the signature mark I model.

This is the one I saw:

How-so? If I were eating beaver when I was 12, I would have been the coolest guy in school.

maliciousteve · 03-23-2012, 03:46 AM

It seems Devin's relationship with Peavey has really soured. He doesn't know what's going on with his signature model and he thinks Peavey thinks he's an asshole.

Asrial · 03-23-2012, 04:36 AM

Peavey has really slacked too.
The guitar was announced over two years ago, and only recently was featured in guitar world, still not available to the mass, regardless of the high demand.
I reckon the Meshuggah signature is already ready to be ordered, and that axe was announced a couple of months ago!
