This HP-2 is marked NOS (New Old Stock) which means it was made from wood that has been stored since the 90's and has a basswood body with a curved maple top with bindings. Incomparably nice guitar with an incredibly nice resonance and a very nice neck.
It cannot be avoided that the construction and quality are very similar to Peavey's Eddie Van Halen's Wolfgang model that was introduced in 1996. The HP-2 has a 25.52 scale length, 22 jumbo frets and 15" radius. It is equipped with two specially designed Peavey Humbuckers and Schaller tuning screws, Peavey/Floyd Rose licensed sway bar.

The HP 2® has a 25.5" scale length, 22 jumbo frets and 15" fingerboard radius. The 10-degree tilt-back headstock has a 3+3 tuning machine configuration featuring Schaller® tuning machines with pearloid buttons. The chrome-plated hardware finish completes the look.
The HP 2's® construction and electronics work in harmony. Two custom-wound Peavey humbucking pickups supply optimal output and tonal response. They're made using a two-step wax-dipping process that provides ultra-low noise operation and resistance to microphone feedback. The pickups are mounted directly to the body, further reducing feedback at high volume levels and enhancing response. A Switchcraft® 3-way toggle switch allows selection of pickups in up, center and down configurations. Players will also find a Peavey/Floyd Rose® licensed, double-locking tremolo assembly to complete the guitar. Finishing off the guitar are two push-pull knobs for volume and tone, with the ability to split the pickups individually.
