Axel rudich (Ar guitAr)
to say that Axel rudich was a master luthier doesn’t begin to express what
he accomplished. he was the go-to guy for parker mods, not just on the
west coast, but world-wide. his deep knowledge of electronics allowed
him to venture where others wouldn’t dare, so when Adrian first started
talking with ken parker about a revolutionary new instrument, it was only
natural that Axel’s name came up. Starting with the state-of-the-art parker
Fly deluxe, Axel added an intimidating list of features, then integrated the
controls so that the technology is right at the player’s fingertips, inside the
guitar itself. A key requirement was that the controls should be simple and
intuitive. As anyone who has seen Adrian play these instruments on stage
can attest, the results are nothing short of spectacular. After completing
three prototypes however, Axel’s life was tragically cut short as a result of a
car accident. For a time, all momentum was lost while Adrian and parker
guitars thought about Axel’s contributions to the project, and to the music
industry in general.
