@brainway1 Hi Jon! I have the PM20 guitar (not the pro series) and I am thinking of changing the pick ups. the specs are the same (minus the tuners, they are Groover, and the pearl inlays). I am looking for some great all round picks... any suggestions? Sorry for asking...
Iv got one of these, got it today and OMG!! it is the best guitar iv ever played no lies! smooth like butter, id give it to herman lee and he would be impressed
If you're using a .052" for a low string I'd say yes. As on any guitar, you may need to cut the nut opening to accomodate the heavier gauge strings, but yes
Very good review. I actually have this exact guitar and I love it. I have guitars which cost me 3 or 4 times as much but this is still one of my favorites. It's the one that sits in the stand (and not in the case under the bed or in the closet) that I grab almost everyday :-)
We agree. What a great find. Anyone who would shy away from this one, because it's made in Indonesia is really missing out on very nice and well made guitar.
I'm really loving your reviews man. You don't spend time just talking, you're thorough and clear, you go over all the particular details of each guitar, their strong points, decorations, technical differences... I really enjoyed this review, it gives us a very complete idea of this guitar's capabilities!
I´m thinking about buying a cheap guitar to backup my Gibson SG Special (that i love), i´m just thinking about this one and the Hagstrom Swede (that you also reviewed). Which one do you recommend me? I used to play rock and punk rock.
liking your reviews... straightforward and informative, not to mention you review some guitars that are not really well known or mainstream. thanks and keep em coming (btw, what's the song played in the very beginning, ive been wondering...)
Thanks for the nice comment. You nailed it. We really want to show everyone something other than a Gibson or Fender that is worth checking out. The intro tune is something I wrote. If we can ever get the website up and running I'll probably upload some whole tunes.

If you like how the guitar sounded in the video, I'd put a Seymour Duncan Jazz in the neck and a JB in the bridge position.

Yes. They are a wonderful instruments. Affordable and well made. Perhaps it was competition to Fender's standard line, as Fender owns them now.

Jon, I'm a lefty. If I ever got to be in that guitar room, I'd probably have a heart-attack from sheer joy at all the options.

Man I want this guitar and do you improvise on all these reviews Jon or is it material you've written
justllisten 1 year ago
@justllisten
Hope you get one. They are sweet. The licks are just improv, but the progressions are bits of whole tunes I've written.

Hi Jon, good job.
I´m thinking about buying a cheap guitar to backup my Gibson SG Special (that i love), i´m just thinking about this one and the Hagstrom Swede (that you also reviewed). Which one do you recommend me? I used to play rock and punk rock.
Sorry about my english, and thank you

Your English is great man. Though the Hagstrom is excellent. You have an SG, so this Parker would give you some more tones to play with. Enjoy.
