LOCKED-DOWN TUNING
Sperzel
®
tuning pegs are, without a doubt, the highest
quality pegs available, combining excellent quality and
design with minimal weight. In fact, the lightweight
aluminum construction of our tuning pegs is key to the
fine balance of Parker guitars. Bob Sperzel’s patented
locking device helps to keep guitars in tune, even with
the most aggressive, merciless flogging, and makes
string changes fast and painless.
SILKY-SMOOTH FRETTING
Our fretboard system consists of long-lasting
hardened stainless steel frets (not the soft nickel of
ordinary
guitars), manufactured
to
precise
tolerances in the correct “half-round” shape and
bonded to our patented glass/carbon-fiber
fingerboard. The composite surface is quite unlike
a conventional wooden fingerboard and gets
slicker with sweat, not tackier.
NO-FUSS ADJUSTMENTS
The Parker truss rod—only 1/6th the weight of
conventional rods—adjusts the neck easily to
accommodate string gauges from .008" to .013"
as well as different tunings. The lighter-weight rod is
another reason why Parkers are so perfectly
balanced and comfortable to play.

Parker’s dual pickup systems work together to deliver electric, acoustic, or a mix of the two sounds. Our custom DiMarzio
®
or Seymour
Duncan
®
magnetic pickups produce powerful electric guitar tones while our Fishman
®
piezo pickups, designed by Larry Fishman specifically
for Parker, sense each string individually, providing the lush, complex tones of an acoustic guitar. The two systems are blended by a stereo
preamp that allows you to mix the volumes and tones on-board. A “smart” switching jack senses stereo or mono cable and routes the signals
accordingly.
UNCOMPROMISED VIBE
The point at which a guitar neck meets the body is the Bermuda Triangle of sound. Not only is it where vibrations traditionally
disconnect as one material meets another, it’s also the point where alignment goes haywire due to the sheer physical stress. Ken
Parker solved all of that with our revolutionary, multi-fingered neck joint. A marvel of physics, it contributes to the evenness of the
sound and resists the inevitable warping that sends other guitars out of tune.
