Not much middle ground with Parkers.
I love 'em. Don't need multiples but love to have one around for the versatility and light weight
when my shoulders need a break.

Sold my 335 Fat Neck in April and decided it was time to have another Fly.

Found this one owner, dead mint '99 with both cases on Nashville Craigslist.

Within 2 hours it was paid for and headed to Idaho.
Monster guitar in time capsule condition.

For me they are a case by case. Yours? Incredible! :drool
It might be the best looking Fly I've ever seen, and I don't say that just to make ya' happy. Some look too plastic-y.

I Love 'em. I've had the privilege of touring their custom shop a couple of times. High on my lust list.

They've always intrigued me, but then I think... Those look like guitars for guitarists who know what they're doing. Well, that rules me out. :notme

Parkers fascinate me, though I've never had the chance to play one. I really need to remedy that and see if the feel and sound are as appealing to me as the ultra-modern, high-tech look.

Lets see...I've always wanted a Parker...Nashville to Idaho, hmmm...I'm between you (in Idaho) and Nashville...maybe an intercept might be called for.


Congrats anyway, just in case I can't find it in the truck.
