  • I have had a Parker Fly Deluxe for a few years now. I love it. I've owned Epiphones, Gibson Les Pauls, Paul Reed Smiths and Fender Stratocasters (USA) and more. I think the Fly Deluxe mimics them just fine and is one fast neck. So versatile and plays like a dream.

  • Ladies and gentlemen, we present to you Neo from the Matrix!

    xD

  • @Socioistic Have you ever played a Parker before?

  • Comment removed

  • changing my mind about playing for the neck through versions, these axes simply don't have the tone to prove it's worth it. The bolt on versions are about $2000+ less and offer the same lame plastic tone.

  • You are a dumb ass....

  • Pat, you sad, pitiful bastard....

  • I love how people think "piezo" means "acoustic". You seriously need a good bridge, and a very good selection of woods to make a solidbody with a piezo sound anything like an acoustic. That sounds like an acoustic strung with rubber bands, recorded on a toy microphone.

  • @Socioistic No you don't.

  • @mashafasha5

    The fact that you listened to this piezo, and still disagree means you're wrong.

  • Tymon Krudenier from Exivious plays parker guitars (as well as steinberger). Its the guitarist, not the guitar.

  • good god... this is awful.

  • This guitar sounds like a cardboard

  • Pat-"I think with the guitar plugged in you get a realy interesting sound."

  • this guitar has the worst clean tone i have ever heard ( using mag PUPS)If you plan on buying one, you better test it out really well. do side by side tests with other guitars. i was hella disappointed. sold mine after a few months. i thought it could replace my strat. no chance in hell. on the good side it has one of the easiest playing necks i have ever tried and good acoustic sound. still, I will never buy a parker again.

  • That first riff sounds more like Marty Mcfly's Death throw jam at the 'Enchantment Under the Sea' dance. GREAT SCOTT!!! do all Parkers have such weak sustain in shred mode or is it just this model?? Nice axe, but does not seem to have much bite in the tone chaser arena. Might need a new flux capacitor.

  • I can't shred either. Furthermore I don't want to.

  • Can't shred

  • seriously? the upper one is the neck pickup and the other one is the bridge pickup? are you sure?

  • Could they have made that thing any uglier? I mean, that is the ugliest looking guitar I have ever seen.

  • @caper121 Ugly?

    Really?

  • This is the most unimpressed i've ever been by something over 4000 dollars...whoops, I mean 400 dollars.

  • I don't know if it's just a coincidence or what, but I've never bought anything from a salesman who was wearing an electronic earpiece.

  • @Greenjoeofkonoha Ah it is way overpriced, basswood? seriously? its rediculous

  • @Greenjoeofkonoha haha, this comment made my day, sir xDD

  • wtf the headstock....

    sounds nice though.

  • @Greenjoeofkonoha £2500

  • im fairly open minded about alot of things, but I think I'm gonna be sick.

  • you dont know how to play a Parker!

  • Never seen so much " drive " on a bluesy sound......

  • lmfao so brutal

  • The best improve for a Parker in the springNO.

  • 5:05 because someone who is about to spend 4,000 dollars on an electric guitar DOESN'T KNOW that the bridge pickup is ceramic wound and will give you a creamier, smoother fat tone. douche nozzle

  • That guy is such a goddamn tool. The guitar rocks, those parkers play like fucking dreams, but that guy is such a tool. i just can't stand it.

  • the guitar sounded great, lets find a better player....

  • man thats uglier than my pet english bulldog that has a shot jaw.......... man my dogs ugly but still cool, unlike that guitar

  • the sprezel tuners ....

  • This guy's is an expert in the bleeding obvious. I love demos using beginner players.

  • @aninstrumentalvision agreed. There's nothing more patronizing that a douchebag who thinks he's a guitar god. but really he's just a kid who knows a few chords.....ugh.

  • Hi, I'm Pat and I can play guitar better than the people in the comments section.

  • shoddy playing, mispronounced dimarzio, mixed up the neck and bridge pick ups, saying that one pick up was ceramic wound and one magnetic wound (ceramic is a type of magnet) and general not rlly know what hes talking about.....this guy should get a different job

  • had one, now i got a Jem, BLOWS THE PARKER AWAY, i mean the parker was the best feeling guitar i'd owned but the Ibanez Jem got it beat by a loing shot..also the parker is very cookie cutter and lacks personality. also too bright, goos for like country and stuff but ht esound id really neither here nor there and sorry but it doesnt really do anything that well except for the acoustic sound..OMG and this guy doesnt help sell the thing with his pentatonic mastery lol..good grief, i'd b embarrassed

  • Hi im Pat and my pinky is retarded as hell

  • HEY GUYS... I've got two MINT condition 1998 Parker Fly guitars for sale (deluxe, and classic). if you're interested message me and I'll give you details and links to the photobucket albums.

  • Hi I'm Pat and this guitar is worth more than me.

  • what the hell demonstration is that?? wahahaha. it's kinda unclean or dirty! what the! hahahaha.

  • I have to say, he is the most unclean player I've ever heard.

  • how can you talk about the guitar, but you even can play it? horrible soundtest

  • SPREZEL tuners? Sperzel.

  • "Parker fly delocks" eh what?

  • Hi i'm not Pat.

  • Hi I'm Pat, and I have a fucking disturbed pinkie on my left hand

  • This Parker has "pretzel" tuners and Adrian Belew's has "pie"-zo pickups. Fucking Yum.

  • i guess a guitar for prince ^^

  • Wow parker guitar have a very good sound , but hell they are ugly

  • @Nintendo129 i love the look

  • Meh, this isn't a demo on his playing, he's just showing off the different sounds the guitar makes. you don't have to be a shredder to demo guitars your selling..

  • I think this is guy is telling you about the guitar and not trying to impress you?

    Maybe that's what this video is about.

  • @ChrisDulk True, getting tired of people bashing him because everybody else does. Agreed, Whammy sucks but Pat is one of the better reviewers at WMS. He's not the best guitarist in the world but that's not even the point, he's supposed to offer a quick overview of the guitar and what it sounds like.

  • @ChrisDulk Yes, i understand ur point, but how are going to be interested in buying one when the playing on the review does not do the guitar justice and does not show how good it can be

  • @MetalHindu Seriously, he's not selling the guitar. He doesn't care if you buy one or not. He's trying to give you some information about it and have an opinion about it. That is what reviewing is about. He sure can play, maybe not as 'good' as you or Yngwie Malmsteen, but he's not showing his skills. He's not introducing the video with a frixofruitytarian mode lick but with a random pentatonic lick because most people identify with that easier. Because he's not making this video for you only.

  • @ChrisDulk so in other words he's just doin the video so we can hear how many ways can i spaz out on a parker fly deluxe? funny, gives all the info for world music supply and at the end says, "you can find the parker fly deluxe and many other parker guitars @ world music.com, so is that so you can hear others spaz out on the guitar or so you can BUY one. if u were buying a sports car would you b more impressed with gramma joes driving it 15mph to the market or dale jr. whippin around a track?

  • Does World Music Supply get their guitarists at computer shows? Uber dweebs!

  • "sprezel"???

  • 5:34 BLuesy sound did you mean heavy metal sound?

  • I wonder if this video helped sell a single parker... hmmm. I'm not a guy to bash others at all but ive never heard such bad licks. 3:26-:3:36. wah wah wah wah....

  • nice guitar

    bad player.

  • what kinda blues does he listen to?

  • This guy can play better than 99.9 percent of the people commenting on his playing.

    Yes, he can play better than YOU.

  • @bosszeroboss So defensive.

    I'm sure a lot of the people that are commenting on his playing suck worse than this shlub, but 99.9%?

    You probably just suck at guitar.

  • @bosszeroboss ummh not exactly. this pat guy is a decent player, and many guitarists watch theese vids. sure there are a few asshole who just shout bad things about people but still.. he isnt great

  • @bosszeroboss uh, no. proof, look at my videos. my oldest videos are about as good as his playing

  • Hi I'm Pat, and I learned guitar through Expert Village.

  • @WoWintosh awesome comment!!!!! give him some phumps up

  • @WoWintosh Hahahahhahahahhahahhahahaha!!!­!!

  • Where do they find these guys?

  • all deluxe designs are supposed to have a push pull coil tap... where are those sounds?

  • Wow, this guy has NO IDEA what he's talking about. Ceramic wound? Magnetic Wound? Ceramic IS the magnet and EVERY pickup has a magnet.

  • this guys lame lol they need a better person

  • loosen up i little

  • I don't care how ugly people think they look, they sounds epic!

    

  • terrible player

  • Sprezel tuners? Must be a new brand....oh wait, he doesn't know what he's talking about. Also, DiMazzios.

  • ceramic and magnetic?

    idiot!

  • Hmm I'd like to think I could do a better job playing my Parker than this guy.. Come take a listen if you like.

  • I just think they're ugly

  • @erik02c i think you are an idiot

  • @narutosaenz Yeah, u probly like the way this guitar looks to

  • magnetic wound???? no shit, Sherlock...

  • This guy almost sucks as much as that other tool JD.

  • "...[y]ou can really use it for anything from country to jazz to rock to, uhm, heavy metal." But not you, Pat.

    This is just awful. The guitars are great, though - don't let the review(er) fool you!

  • stop shredding like shit

  • thing i love about the parker fly guitars is that they're very verstatile, great review

  • magnetic wound rofl

  • Hi I'm Pat, and I know to play fast pentatonic scales.

  • aaaaaaaaaah....neck pickups are CERAMIC? FOR REAL?

  • I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM THESE GUYS!

  • @Javasteen80 RIGHT?? their cheapest guitars are 1,000 dollars... fuck that bullshit, id rather get a warlock for 400

  • @iHaveHate4All you might as well just light 400 dollars on fire! Warlock? Really? BC Rich? Come on man.

  • @thorboy359 first off, even if a bc rich WAS a bad guitar, its still a better deal then this shit. second, i know for a fact youve CLEARLY never played one because if you did you'd know better than this.

  • @iHaveHate4All Grow up man. Your calling a Chinese made pine body ugly piece of shit better then something that is intricately designed for perfection. Your right Ive never played one, Nor have I claimed to. Its not my style of a guitar. But i have owned ~$400 guitars. And I DO OWN +1500 Guitars... You get what you pay for.

    BTW why are you even putting this guitar on the same wavelength as a Warlock? A Warlock is a cheap "metal" style guitar... And it doesn't even do that well.

  • @thorboy359 if you knew anything about guitars, then you would know playing some random $400 guitar doesnt mean you know shit about a warlock JUST because its in the same price range. and ive heard both of these guitars, both warlocks and these 'parker' pieces of shit. sure, parker sounds nice, but for between 1/4 - 1/10 the price, depending on the parkers' price, a warlock sounds just as good if not better on the same amp, playing the same style of music, making the parker a BIT over priced.

  • @iHaveHate4All

    Price range doesn't make it sound good correct, but I'm not talking about that. I know dudes that can make 100 dollar Squires SCREAM, but what it gets you 99.9% of the time is quality. THAT my friend is where your Chinese POS fails. Thank You.

  • @thorboy359 You really insisting that something youve never even tried (which isnt even made in china, jackass) is so terrible, when it is made by a company that has product lines for some of the worlds best guitarists. hmm. interesting.

    and yes, i agree, quality is the key word here, but 99% of the 'quality' in this parker guitar is nothing more than a rather interesting body design and some rather high end pickups, which surely cant make it worth a 4 digit pricetag.

    oh, and your welcome.

  • @thorboy359 oh, and if you wanna rant on about quality, take a look at your parkers headstock. im sure you can brag about your guitars quality ALLL day, until the headstock snaps in half or the strings get caught on something and snap, eh?

  • @Ikoris He was right though, this guy fucking sucks and should be fired, along with most of the other people from WMS. I wouldn't mind if he wasn't a great player but had amazing knowledge of guitars, but he has neither. And just because you haven't heard of someone doesn't mean they're a bad guitarist (which following your retarded logic, is what you implied)... a lot of people haven't heard of Tosin Abasi or John McLaughlin, if you think they're bad, go suck a tailpipe or something.

  • dude .. those tones are anything but bluesy...

  • wat chord is he playing at 2:35

  • lol omg.... kinda rough pat.... who hired this guy?

  • @Ikoris why dont u fucking go to my channel and look at my most recent video, or if youre too stupid, its the one with the green guitar in it, yea thats me playing after a year and a half of playing guitar. And it doesnt take another guitarist to see that this guy is a terrible musician. So why dont you go listen to ur little jonas brothers bullshit and cry urself to sleep thinking about why you are such an idiot. Or you can grow a pair and stop making clueless and retarded comments

  • I need one of those!!!! 

  • He could not have described the pickups any worse o.0

    I'm also not sure he, like MANY demo'ers out there, actually knows what "bluesy" means.

    This is a bad review.

  • .............how do you mistake the neck for the bridge pickup?

  • Please some one just remove that very expensive guitar from.....pat...

  • this is so bad...

  • i might just apply for the review job there. I can play so much better than this guy. He cant even alternate pick well and he knows like one scale.

  • Quit bashing, he's not that bad.

    At least he's a LOT better than Whammy, he can actually do what reviews are for: give you an idea of the tone/features of an instrument (without it being/sounding horribly out of tune).

    

  • I love how clueless he is. It's entertaining.

  • Hi I'm Pat, and I know how to play the pentatonic scale.

  • @RR5GUITAR he is showing the guitar, not his technique ;)

  • @CyrilViXP to sell this guitar one must be impressed by first impressions. and upon first impression i'm not.

  • @RR5GUITAR pentatonic scale? please continue to make yourself look retarded.

  • @RR5GUITAR haha that is so true, he's basically playing the same thing over and over again. You wonder where they get these guys to do these review things...

  • @RR5GUITAR4 YOU JEALOUS BRO.

  • @RR5GUITAR Hardly, sure he might know a pattern or two but he sure as hell can't play.

  • @RR5GUITAR knows how to play pentatonic with only down strokes lol

  • @RR5GUITAR lol lol lol...i know it's so spassed out i feel embarrassed for him!

  • and these are dimazeo, i mean dimarzio pickups...lol!

  • hey it only has one piezo pick up there pat..look at me like a troll just picking this poor guy apart, whats wrong with me..get a life, hey i do have a life, so whtas my excuse?? HE'S JUST SUCH A YUTZ I CAN'T RESIST, AND HE PROBABLY HAS BEEN PLAYING FOR A LONG TIME TOO.. he's just one of those people that just cant coordinate their fingers no matter how much they practice. he willl always be pentatonic boy and every now and then, HEY LOOK I GOT A WHAMMY BAR TOO GUYS!!!LMAO! I KNOW I'M AN ASS:)

  • OK LAST COMMENT FROM ME ON THIS..SORRY PAT YOU SEEM LIKE A GOOD GUY, JUST GOOFIN ON YA CUZ IT'S AN AD:) NUTTIN PERSONAL OK AND SORRY IF I OFFENDED YOU, I'M NOT A MEAN SPIRITED PERSON, JUST LIKE TO HAVE A LAUGH AND I DON'T THINK IT REALLY BOTHERS YOU:)

  • The guitar is like Aretha franklin. Butt ugly, but sounds amazing.

  • eeeeeeeeeeewwww who the hell designed the guitar?! It looks deformed.

  • too bad this guy can't play

  • goatnuts8288 - They get prettier by the hour when you are standing up holding that lightweight on a strap.

    Big Ron

  • Interesting, some really nice features that you can typically find on an array of pedals. Seems well-worth 1850. But not 10 grand.

  • i like the acoustic pickup

  • what an idiot (nice guitar though...)

  • you play so bad, dude :S

  • I want Parker

  • How to altuurnaite picking 101.

  • @varulv234 How to spell 101

  • @MrApex37 How to sarcasm 101....

  • What is up with his pincky?!

  • god, why the hell would they demo a parker, a PARKER, through a BUGERA? i mean really? and seriously, this guy should stick to rhythm. -.- or just not do reviews at all anymore.

  • @guitardude1000000000 strange!

  • hes not THAAAT bad, hes just not very good. there are people all over the world who arent even close to his level... you'd just figure people who make such expensive guitars could pay somebody a lil better

  • TOO MUCH GUITAR FOR U MAN HAHAHA....

  • I bought a parker fly...but not because this guy told me to. haha.

  • You shouldn't be let near this guitar

  • Parker is endorsed by Fred Flintstone...

  • uf this dude wasn't so crappy, this guitar would really be put to its full potential.

  • HOLD ON LET ME PUT ON SOME MORE GAIN

  • I like the volume swells at the end. Pretty cool sound.

  • why do ppl talk to their fellow musicians in such a condescending manner

  • these world music supply guys are embarrasing

  • So to use the Piezo, do you have to use two amps??? Or and you use the the two sounds with just one amp?
