I played a parker a while ago and loved the sound, and feel of it. The peizo was a big plus too. My only question is, How is the tremolo on these? Is the tuning fairly stable? Or it will just fall out of tune shortly after using it. Thanks guys. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Really high quality and it's very easy to work with. And i did not experience any tuning issues You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
