The Parker Guitars PDF60 Electric Guitar is equipped with most of the great features Parker is known for in an elegantly carved shape, showcasing a more traditional and ergonomically shaped upper horn while retaining the look and feel that is unmistakably Parker. The flared headstock provides more strength and allows for a thinner profile and a faster, more comfortable neck.

PDF Radial Neck Models also feature a 22 fret fingerboard enabling precise placement of the neck pickup for that classic neck-position tone. Pickup mounting has been improved to allow players to swap out the included Duncans with the pickup of their choice. Their exclusive radial neck joint ensures better transfer of tone from neck to body and a precise fit with no slippage due to lateral sliding.

"Excellent Guitar/ Excellent Value"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I'm tired of hearing how any guitar in the 300-1000 price range isn't as "good" as other guitars that are far beyond the $1000 price point. THIS IS A $500 GUITAR AND IT PLAYS/FEELS/SOUNDS BETTER THAN SO MANY GUITARS IN THIS PRICE POINT. It's a Parker, if you want the specs, go to the Parker website or just read over them here on zZounds, or any other online dealer. What I can tell you is that this guitar is not the product of some vain effort Parker made to offer an affordable guitar. This is not a squier or an epiphone, this is a PARKER. The sustain is heavenly and unending, the tone is brilliant (bright and warm simultaneously), the range of sounds this instrument can produce reaches farther than you could imagine. I've had mine for quite some time, I've gigged with it, and have performed numerous set-ups (never broke a string...). I give this guitar a 9/10 because it's a bit tricky to play comfortable when seated (at least for me), I have the same issue with LP's from time to time so take into account that if you're comfortable playing a Les Paul seated, this will be no issue for you whatsoever. Please ignore people who compare the taste of an apple to the taste of pear, they'll only confuse you. Listen to those wise enough to know that apples and pears will never be comparable. We can however compare a mealy apple to a crisp one, and the Parker PDF60 is one crisp and tasty apple.
