Peavey Raptor Plus Electric Guitar

Very nice starter guitar! Well finished, electronics and pickups work as expected. Tuner machines are basic but do the job.

Better than expected

Looking to start playing guitar again after 30 yrs, I wanted an inexpensive but quality electric guitar and stumbled onto this Peavey. The fit and finish is amazing at this price point especially for a beginner guitar and makes the enjoyment of playing exemplary. Bought on sale at ($) all in...but I would've paid much more because it's a beautiful piece of work.

Great Guitar for a Great Price

If you are a beginner like me, you definitely need this one. The guitar is nicely finished and comfortable to hold. I am not a pro at functioning but it sounds great, has volume controls. The only things that I don't like with is a curve on the top right corner of the body which make it uncomfortable (maybe all electric guitars come that way. never had one) Also, I could have used a guitar strap with the order but ended up buying it separately.

Loud buzzing/loose ground = unusable

I cannot use the guitar at all due to a loud buzzing / loose ground. I originally thought I may have a bad cable, but after swapping cables and researching it seems like a loose ground connection within the guitar. I pretty much consider this DOA as I can't stand to have it plugged in,much less hear the music over the buzzing

Great for the money. Very solid.

The high e and low e were cut too low at the nut, so my luthier friend filled them in and reset the tremolo bar. This is par for the course with inexpensive guitar. Sounds and plays great, stock pickups are decent, and price was right.

Needs a little setup

Required slight trust rod adjustment. A few frets are sharp on the ends. Plays very well. Wish this guitar was around when I started playing in the 70s. Would have been nice if a gig bag were included. I bought this for church use and in teaching new players.

It's no surprise that the Peavey Raptor Plus electric guitar has become a favorite among novices. This instrument is designed with the beginner in mind, offering a blend of playability, durability, and tonal clarity that is unmatched in its class.

Crafted with a solid basswood body, the guitar boasts a robust construction that ensures a resonant and warm sound, ideal for a variety of musical styles. The sleek, ergonomic design not only enhances the guitar's visual appeal but also contributes to better balance and comfort during play, making it easier for new players to develop their skills.

The neck of the Raptor Plus is made from maple, known for its stability and smooth playability, and it is topped with a rosewood fingerboard that adds a touch of warmth to the guitar's overall tone. With 22 frets, players have full access to a wide range of notes, perfect for exploring different genres and techniques.

The guitar's wide top pole piece single-coil pickups are engineered to capture a larger string window, providing more focus and clarity to each note. These pickups deliver a crisp and articulate sound that can cut through a mix while still retaining a rich tonal character.

The five-way pickup selector allows players to switch between various tonal options, offering versatility for different playing styles. Additionally, the second and fourth positions are hum-canceling, ensuring a clean sound without interference.

To complete the control layout, the Raptor Plus includes master volume and tone controls, giving players the ability to shape their sound with precision. The ivory finish of the guitar adds a classic and sophisticated touch, making it a visually striking instrument that stands out from the crowd.
