Adrian Belew's Signature Model Guitar!

The Parker Adrian Belew Signature DF842 solidbody electric guitar gives you everything that made the Adrian Belew Signature Fly such a smash hit (minus the Line 6 modeling) in Parkers updated DF body style. That means you get a ton of great onboard tone-shaping options, including the infinite sustain of a Sustainiac Stealth PRO neck pickup plus the acoustic-style sound of an RMC piezo bridge - all on top of a high-output Seymour Duncan TB-4 bridge pickup. What's more, the Adrian Belew Signature DF842 guitar gives you a 13-pin hex output, which lets you integrate it with advanced MIDI and effects processors. If you're ready to push the boundaries of your creativity, get your Parker Adrian Belew Signature DF842 from Sweetwater!

Parker Adrian Belew Signature DF842 Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Sustainiac Stealth PRO neck pickup gives you endless sustain
  • RMC Pow'r Bridge pickup system gives you sweet acoustic sound
  • MIDI-ready 13-pin output gives you access to guitar synth and effects processors

Sustainiac Stealth PRO neck pickup gives you endless sustain
When you pull up on the tone knob and engage your Parker Adrian Belew Signature DF842's Sustainiac Stealth PRO neck pickup, everything you think you know about sustain goes right out the window. The Sustainiac Stealth PRO neck pickup gives you two sustain modes to play with, harmonic mode and harmonic-plus-octave mode. Together, these modes let you create anything from eBow-like sustain, to persistent harmonics, to no-holds-barred feedback (without the exploding amp effect). And the Sustainiac Stealth PRO neck pickup is only one way to get seriously creative with your Adrian Belew Signature DF842.

RMC Pow'r Bridge pickup system gives you sweet acoustic sound
The Sustainiac at the neck isn't the only impressive pickup Parker gave their Adrian Belew Signature DF842. If you take a real close look at the Adrian Belew Signature DF842's bridge, you'll notice that there's something funky about the saddles. That's because each of the saddles is actually a separate piezo pickup that's part of the Adrian Belew Signature DF842's RMC Pow'r Bridge pickup system. Thanks to the RMC Poly-Drive 1 Preamp, which EQs and blends each of these six pickups together to give you rich, natural, and dynamic acoustic sound that you can blend into your tone.

MIDI-ready 13-pin output gives you access to guitar synth and effects processors
The other super-cool thing about the RMC Pow'r Bridge pickup system and Poly-Drive 1 Preamp is that they also give you a standard 13-pin hex output - just what you need to play your Adrian Belew Signature DF842 electric guitar through your MIDI-based guitar gear. With an Adrian Belew Signature DF842, it couldn't be easier to create your own ultimate MIDI guitar rig, without ever having to mess around with aftermarket split pickups or strange conversion hardware. And when coupled with an appropriate MIDI guitar system (such as Roland's VG series processors) your Adrian Belew Signature DF842 Deluxe is sure to be an endless well of creative inspiration.

Parker Adrian Belew Signature DF842 Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • This powerful, tone rich, and flexible electric guitar is perfect for any creative guitarist
  • Carved mahogany body and neck provide your with classic warmth and rich low-end harmonics
