Parker PM-20 Guitar - Contractor Talk - Professional Construction and Remodeling Forum

I am buying a new Parker Fly Mojo but I need to get rid of this one first. I realize that this is not a tool by any constuction standards but I know there are more than a few members here that may be interested in seeing it.

It is an awesome guitar with a solid mahogany body / Bubinga top, mahogony set neck with Ebony board, 22 frets, coil tapped pick-ups, grover tuners, strap locks, Parker Stinger p/u's and more. It only weighs 7 pounds!

I really do love this guitar but I have had my eye on a New Parker Fly Mojo for a while now and I am ready to make the switch. This thing plays and sounds better than any other guitar I have owned (over 20 and most were way more expensive). Super fast neck. Coil tapped pickups are very versatile. Stays in tune. No intonation change even when drop tuned wayyy low. I will never own another electric guitar that is not a Parker.

Comes with Coffin Case (brand new) $400 + shipping

You can never have too many guitars

The most I have ever had at one time was 6, but that was when I was playing shows all of the time. I kept a couple as backups and a few were alternate tuned. I do not play my acoustics too much and I really have my mind set on the Parker Mojo.

Actually I have made a couple. I am in no way a luthier but I have done a Warmoth custom and a homemade Iceman style body with Ibanez neck and hardware. The iceman played like sh%t and the Warmoth was O.K.. I have decided to buy from now on.

I sold a Hammond L-112 last year. I intended to learn how to play the thing but never got around to it. I never got past learning my major/minor chords and the minor pentatonic on it. I would play a few chords and do a couple of fills, then I lost interest.

I would still like to learn classical piano though.

American strats for me bros. Mesa tremoverb. Times got tough about a year ago had to sell my martin d-45. I miss that guitar. Things get better I will at least get a d-28. That parker looks cool. Way better body design than when they first came out.

If you played a Parker you might would change your mind. I was always a metal player so I owned many ESP, Dean, Washburn, Fernandes etc.. These guitars always had the sound I preferred but I loved the way a nice strat or even more a tele played. When I picked up the Parker for the first time I was amazed, the best of both worlds. The coil-tapped pickups remind me of a tele when tapped on rhythm and clean. The lead reminds me of my ESP which had Invaders in it. I cant wait to get the Parker Mojo.
