Parkers Guitars love them or hate them?

[hubberjub***]

I've always liked Parker guitars. They look kind of funny but they are very comfortable to play. The US models are very well made and my friend just bought a P-44 that seems like a great value.

I feel the same way about the looks.

I like the idea of Parker guitars, but have never played one. I like to see companies moving guitar technology along instead of just building clones of 50 year old designs. I was considering getting a Tele-type axe, but would like to try the P36 as an alternative.

With my budget I could only consider their budget models and I know they don't include the exotic materials.

Some players I admire such as Adrian Belew and Vernon Reid seem to like them.

I really ought to find some I can try out. I'm not sure the local guitar shops carry them.
