This Parker Sings Like a Bird!
The P-42 is a guitar that delivers everything you'd expect from a Parker, at a price that acknowledges the concept of budget. When designing the P-42, Parker used traditional materials without compromising the high standards and precise tolerances that have made Parker Guitars the ultimate in tonal spectrum and playability.

Parker P-42 Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Parker playability and features, set up and inspected in Parker's USA factory
  • Traditional woods, lightning-fast response, sweet, full midrange and singing upper register
  • Dual Parker Stinger pickups with quality electronics

Parker playability and features, set up and inspected in Parker's USA factory
With the combination of Parker playability, quality Parker magnetic pickups, and the one-of-a-kind Parker look, the P-42 represents one of the finest guitars for the money on the market. Importantly, the P-42 and all P-Series guitars sold in the US are set up in Parker's Mundelein, IL factory to ensure spot-on tuning and playability.

Traditional woods, lightning-fast response, sweet, full midrange and singing upper register
The P-42 has the signature capabilities of a high-end Parker: light weight and an easy-playing neck with double cutaways providing access to upper frets. The P-42 has a beautiful solid one-piece mahogany body plus a one-piece maple bolt-on neck. The responsiveness of the neck and the full midrange and clear, singing highs make this Parker a delight to play. And at only 7 lb., the P-42 is an axe you can play all night!

Parker Stinger pickups with quality electronics
And when it comes to sound, the P-42 features dual Parker-designed Stinger pickups in an HH configuration. The 3-way pickup selector with push-pull coil tap gives you a whole range of tonal possibilities. The Parker P-42 represents an outstanding blend of tradition, tone and value!

Music Background:  pro musician


“I played this guitar straight from the show room in a group with all Fenders
and the other guys were amazed...It was a concert situation with everything
(amps & monitors) dialed flat. The other two guitarists had lots of pedals
on boards...I didn't need pedals to get different sounds from the Parker.
The coil split made a big difference and with the PU selector I got...” Read More
