before i switched to playing Fenders, i used to play parker guitars. i have a 1999 Parker Fly Deluxe in Italian Plum (purple). It's extremely light, almost about 5 lbs, has 24 frets, active pickups, piezo pickups, sperzel locking tuners, a stable tremolo system, and stainless steel frets.

this guitar is all fine and well, but i decided to switch to fender because i was getting a little older and wanted to get back to a more vintage sound of single coils, the parker is much more a BIZARRE looking guitar and didn't fit in a lot of musical genres, and also...i realized i HATED active pickups and their need for batteries!!!

So, then i moved on to Fender and everything is cool! i still love my Parker, but i think my Parker is getting jealous ever since my Fender 2008 American Std Stratocaster moved in...heh heh.

I'm not own a Parker but a ESP Eclipse and I agree with you regarding the battery changes.
Most I use my Strat.

Cheers :D
