Product Description: If you've
never played a Parker, you're in for a treat. If you have, you know that
nothing feels or plays better. This model features an ebony fretboard,
and the radial neck joint is a revolutionary design that creates singing
sustain and stability. The tremolo has a very soft and spongy feel, and
the locking tuners keep you nicely in tune. The Duncan USM pickups
serve up hot tone, and the basswood body is both tonally rich and super
comfortable. These guitars are very light, so they're the perfect choice
for anyone who's looking to take a load off their back when standing
with their guitar.
There is small paint chip on the headstock but otherwise guitar is mint. Truss rod cover included.
Features: Body: Carved Basswood Scale: 25.5" Neck: Maple Fingerboard: Ebony Pickups: Duncan USM HB102 Controls: Volume and Tone Bridge: Parker vibrato system Machine Heads: Locking
What's the story with this guitar?: I
pretty much exclusively stock manufacturer refurbished guitars. These
are guitars that have been sent from the manufacturer to a repair center
in Nashville, TN. There is a whole range of reasons these guitars end
up there, but it's usually a relatively minor issue: finish scratch,
electronics repair, maybe the guitar is a second or has been
discontinued. Most of the guitars I get are rated a "2", which means no
visible repairs. These are guitars that look as if they could be hanging
on the rack as new in any music store; in fact, because of this, they
are stamped with a small "used" on the back of the headstock, to prevent
retailers from selling them as new instruments. The rest of them are
"3+", which means the repair is slightly visible, or perhaps the
instrument is not mint. I do my best to list the issues and photograph
the blemishes. Often I just can't find them, but I do include detailed
photographs that are always of the instrument you will actually be
buying. I thoroughly test and inspect all the instruments I receive, and
they also go through a triple-inspection process before they are sent
to me.

About me: This
is a one man operation. I order the guitars, test them, clean them,
photograph them, list them, pack them and ship them. This keeps overhead
low, which is why my prices are so affordable. As mentioned before,
these guitars all come from the same place. The quality is excellent, as
is the care that goes into your purchase. Check my feedback, people
love these guitars, the service I provide, and the way they are packed. I
have been a professional guitarist for 25 years and still teach a
number of students. I love playing guitar and am very happy to be able
to spread the love with these fine products.
