The musician's guitar

I have had my Nitefly M for around 7 months now, and I'm am continually blown away by it. Excellent craftsmanship. Very easy to setup on your own (in fact, it comes with tools for you to do so). Very utilitarian guitar. Unprecedented electronics - Mag/Piezo switching is very useful and sounds great.

I do recommend purchasing a better TRS - (2)TS cable if you want to run it into two different amps. I love the finish, but that's mainly because it is very inviting and takes away any fear of playing it. If you're buying a guitar for the looks, I recommend a higher end Parker, Gibson, or PRS - the Nitefly M is meant to be played!

  The Best Guitar I've Played

This is the best feeling, best sounding and most versatile guitar I have played. I've owned Gibsons and Fender, all top-of-the-line. So, if that doesn't sum it up, I don't know what will. Buy this guitar... well, buy any Parker guitar. You will not be disappointed.

  Amazing Guitar

I got this thing for christmas/birthday last year and I absolutely love it. The acousitc settings on the guitar are amazing. It almost can sound like my Martin if you get it just right. Along with my Tech21 amp, this thing can have literally any sound you want it to have. The neck is also so fast. I feel like I'm flying when I play this thing. The only complaint I've heard is on the looks, but to be honest, I love them. This in my mind is a work of art.

Best Buy 
by Honey Roy from Largo, FL, April 2006

This guitar does eveything. Two weeks ago, I got my first Parker, a Korean P36 "Tele". I have been hacking away at guitars for over 30 years. This week I sold my Strat and My Blueshawk for this Nitefly. The M is everything you need in one bundle. I got a second because it had a small scratch for $1200. The only problem I found is it is hard for me to get used to the "Glass" neck. I usually play Satins. I have used a lot of different pickups over the years and there is nothing wrong with these. If you want a good guitar with Duncans get an ESP/LTD MH-1000. Another Best Buy. I got one. From one old (used to be) pickup changer to another, it will cost you $250 to put Duncans in this due to size restrictions. If you have to change, may I recommend my favorite Dimarzio set for a Mahagany Body? A Tone Zone in the Bridge and a PAF Pro in the neck. But I don't think you will need them after plunkin on this for a while.

Parker Nitefly 
by Slim Pickins , April 2004

Been playing for 35 years and still ain't that good but I keep trying. Have owned most any guitar worth owning and would say that this is without a doubt one of the finest. The sounds are great and when you run it in stereo it is fat and full. Switch between electric and acoustic. The bridge is awesome and the stainless frets and neck feel like they are oiled. Everthing is first class. The only thing I would change is the pickups. Seymour Duncan JB and PF 59 would be the ticket. Will probably get another one.
