To each their own I guess. That body looks to me like the kind of injection moulded crap you used to get back in the 70's.
Those guitars kicked ass, though.

speaking of injection-moulded yadda yadda.

to be clear i don't think this is remotely ugly. i played one of these for like five minutes at a trade show about thirty years ago and i remember it felt amazing. i can't really play and it's full of unique & temperamental parts and the people who like them seem very intense about pricing, so i guess it's not for me however i feel about it. but i think - no, i know - it's way cool.

Not sure about the built in carry handle, but love the colour.

Parkers are absolutely beautiful guitars.

:namedrop: I spent a day with Larry Fishman a couple weeks ago and somehow went on and on about Parker before realizing he had a hand in it. He's great!

Parkers are ugly in an ergonomic way. It all works but it has the vibe of an expensive office chair.

Also they're very much designed to be worn high up, nah?

Ha! Brilliant.

yeah, every parker I've touched performed and felt great. I don't know if I've ever plugged one in, though.

Kinda ugly, but a bit insect-y, which is cool.
