Title: Got a new guitar
Post by: yellowv on May 30, 2009, 04:01:40 AM

Well today my Parker Fly Mojo arrived and let me just say...
IT'S AWESOME!!!
Seriously this guitar is in a class of it's own. It is so light and comfortable it is unbelievable. The neck is perfect and the fingerboard is fast and amazing. Wasn't sure how I would like the Duncans, but they seem like they will do the job. The Peizo even makes the cleans on my 5150 sound pretty damn good. Super happy with this guitar. May even like it better than the Caparison, but the verdict is still out on that one. Especially with the Cap getting a BKP tommorrow. Well do you guys want pics? Of course you do.

Half your headstock is missing mate, I hope you got a discount :)

Seriously though, nice guitar. I love the finish on the back, I really like that coppery colour.

Thanks guys. I love the back finish as well. It would be cool on the whole guitar, although it is kind of like a chameleon finish. In bright lighting it looks like copper like in the pics, but looks brown and maroon in lower lighting as well.

My dog says thanks for the compliments too :)

Nice guitar, lovely wood. I tried a few and the necks are really nice. Peizo is good too, my custom has it.

Nice Ironing board and doggie!  :D

The neck is super fast. Probably my new favorite neck. Here is a picture of the back in different lighting.
