Hartley Peavey founded his company over 40 years ago to assert that quality, craftsmanship and value can be had at fair and reasonable prices. This simple philosophy has altered the course of the music industry and changed Hartley from an amateur musician to champion of musicians-and it continues to drive his company today.

Today, Peavey is the most vertically integrated family-owned private corporation in the musical instrument and sound equipment industry - an engineering and manufacturing juggernaut. Hartley knows that his company's finest work still lies ahead.

With a continuing commitment to Research and Development, Peavey leads the industry in numbers of patents, trademarks and registered products-an ever-present indication of Peavey's ongoing innovation and an indicator of what this Mississippi-based global leader will accomplish in the next 40 years.
