So, I am thinking of my options here... The best case scenario for me is to find a tech to make 24 bloody fret slots, install "normal" frets and forget all about it because I am really getting tired with this recurring issue. I spoke with my tech about it, the problem he is not familiar w...

Great. Tell us what you did and what worked?

Beautiful job! Congratulations!

If they are sticky, use a little windex and let it penetrate.

One thing you can try, instead of the glass beads if you don't have them, is to add a little bit of very fine baking soda to your glue. It will bond very fast and according to many, make your bond stronger. It's definitely worth a shot. Here's an article that covers this: https://aronalpha.net/blog/...

My 2 cents here. My previous attempts at installing a pick up were defeated by the carved top curve. And I ended up using screws which deface the guitar to some degree. If I were to do this again, I would get a type of double-sided tape that is extremely difficult to remove, unfortunately, but is th...

Watched this yesterday. Awesome!

I have owned Fly Classic since I got mine new in 1996 and I love it. My daughter has been playing guitar for a while and is wanting a Parker Fly but my budget for this limits me to either a P42/P44 or one of the later PDF models. I believe the P42/P44 models are made in Korea and may be better qual...

Short answer to the very long question: No.

Hi All- I bought my Supreme back in 2001 (saw it, needed it, went back and got it after I had a paycheck...) and have yet to do it justice.. i went 23 years of plugging it directly into my Line6 DL-4, with the mags going through a TS9, and then into a Princeton Chorus, with the volume basically sup...

I sometimes get the sense that USM was just making these model numbers up as they went along. Nef's Toxic/Virtuoso/DF845 was also referred to as a 825 by the company (Pat and Nef are, of course, the original owners we can trust to know for certain): https://x.com/parkerguitar/status/334801232453586...

The Custom Shop called it an 825.

Great to know there’s a source for this now!

I think I know this instrument well.
It’s a fabulous guitar.
May you enjoy it for many years to come! And it’s great to know it’s made its way to France! Allez La France!!!

It really looks like the nut is incorrectly cut. Do you have a shot of the nut from above?

Hi @KenanJ—and Important thing is to check that the step-stop is touching, otherwise the guitar will always float. I typically adjust it so that there’s a little friction when the step-stop is moved up and down. It can be a little annoying because the bridge is moving as you’re tuning it to pitch, ...

Welcome!
My take on this, is get the dings and scrapes fixed but keep that beautiful white guitar white. At least that's what I would do. Otherwise, who cares what other people think - it's your instrument.
Congratulations on such a beauty!

$800 (and my favorite recent listing).

I bought a near mint hard tail for $800.00 off of someone on the old Parker forum!

I'll double your money on that if you like!

This is what happened to it ... viewtopic.php?p=4188#p4188
