The Peavey Vandenberg Signature guitar is a "made in the USA" super strat type guitar released in 1988. It distinguishes itself from other superstrats by a very unique look. It has a slightly arched top and "fiddle cuts" in the body. The lower cutaway also has an extra scooped cutaway for reaching the highest fret. The scale of the bolt-on neck is 24.75 inch (just like a Les Paul). The headstock is reversed and has a 3 degree tilt and matches the color of the body. The bridge is a Kahler 2700 series licensed under Floyd Rose double locking tremolo. The pickups have an HS configuration with an Alnico bridge humbucker (14.67kOhm) and an Alnico neck single coil (6.47kOhm) with medium/high output both by Peavey. The pickups are both placed at a 2-4 degree angle (parallell with the body's bottom) to eliminate the string spacing problem when Gibson pickups are combined with Fender spaced tremolos.
The Peavey Vandenberg Quilt Top is similar to the Peavey Vandenberg Custom but has a quilted maple top. It has the same set-through construction. A combination of a set-neck and a neck-through. The neck on this guitar is a mahogany one instead of a maple one though. The guitar has 2 humbuckers instead of an HS configuration. The Pickups were 2 high output custom wound Humbuckers, controls were 2 volume, 2 way switch and an on-on mini switch for coil tapping. Chrome and gold Kahler Spyders came as standard on them too.
