Guitar Story
In 1981, Peavey Electronics Corporation controlled the Peavey name. Its one line on record was built at Peavey Meridian guitar production (USA).[1, 2, 3, 4]
A Peavey guitar from 1981 belongs to whichever era was running on its product line that year. An era is a stretch when the company that controlled the name and the plant that built the line both stayed the same. If you know the line, the table below tells you which version of Peavey you have. The name dates from 1965[1], 16 years before.
| Line | Controlled by | Parent | Built at | Era | Grade |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Peavey USA guitars | Peavey Electronics Corporation | — | Peavey Meridian guitar production | 1977–2015 | community[1, 2, 3, 4] |
Nothing changed in 1981. Every era running that year carried on from an earlier year, so a Peavey from 1981 is the same version as one from 1980.
