the Fly Clone Project

I am new to the Parker Fly. I will say it is the easiest guitar to play I have ever had in my hands.
But, is there a way to adjust the pickup height or something that will give the guitar's sound more body and depth? Right now it sounds like single coil pickups no matter what I do. The coil tapping IS working, if I pull the tone control out, the sound gets even tinnier.

Welcome to the Forum.
The Fly has a very even tone across the audio spectrum in my experience. The fatness you’re looking for will come mostly from your amp settings.
Also, the tone control is very usable and a little roll off goes a long way towards fattening the response.
The Fly, because of its construction is quite bright, so a little roll off can be desirable to achieve a fatter tone.
I’m using an axe FX and have no problem getting very far tones.
Good luck.

Thanks! I'll keep fiddling with this marvelous instrrument!

@mikejcurtis, we’d also be happy to listen to a recorded example; just in case the tinny sound is anything more than dialing in the new guitar for your rig.
