I've got a 1997 Parker Fly Classic that you can see here if you are curious.
I like the guitar a great deal with a couple of exceptions. My biggest issue revolves around the high E string catching on the side of the pickup cover at the most inopportune times. If I consciously bang the strings hard trying to make the string catch it won't do it. But as soon as I start playing it live, the E string will go dead and I look down to find it hung on the edge of the pickup cover. The guitar should be setup OK. I bought it with a dead circuit board and sent it to Parker for repair. They were great people to deal with and returned the instrument to "factory specs" at no additional charge. This entailed changing the nut, setting it up and redoing the shielding in the control cavity. Anyway, the height of the pickups hasn't been changed since this work so they should be set the way Parker wants them.
Does anyone else have this issue with their Fly. I know my right hand technique might be best described as "pawing" but I still don't think this should be happening.
BTW, my other issue with the instrument is that the upper horn bangs me in the sternum when I play the guitar sitting down. After 30 minute I feel like I've been punched in the chest by Mike Tyson. Oh well, I suppose it wasn't made to be played sitting down in the first place. It's a shame though, I really like the neck. sb
