The vibrato system uses springs, like a Strat. Not a blade like the deluxe. In all other respects yes it is as you describe.

thank you for the input! That's the ball park I was excpeting like 1k ish, however, I'm not 100% sold on the nitefly since I inly own a fly deluxe which is great, I never had the opportunity to try out a nitefly and see how it compares to a fly deluxe. Cheers The Nitefly FFV1 sounds basically iike ...

This is what I posted. Haven't sold it yet because I need to get it back to the US for shipping. But that's my price. Can't find that kind of pricing on Ebay or Reverb.

Thank you very much for your really interesting answer ! The project has stopped and is comming back just now ! I'm going to check modern preamps you're talking about. I'll try to keep you posted, this might be interesting for someone else. I may have some parts for sale if you need them. You can P...

According to your pictures, the bushings are already there. They keep the bridge in place and steady.

I wrote to him, asking if the Fly was still for sale and if possible to have a short video.
Your answer:
I’m not shipping the guitar, so I won’t bother videoing it for you.

Conclusion of the negotiation...

Lol! "Good luck on your sale!"

Excuse my profound ignorance, but isn't there a way to put a single toggle switch in the Mag Volume position that would coil tap both HBs? Even better, a 3 position switch could maybe switch between Series, Parallel and Tap? Something like that? https://www.parts-express.com/3PDT-Mini-Toggle-Switch-...

Negotiate.
Make sure its not a scam.

Here's a new one on Reverb. It claims Factory Refinish but I've never seen the headstock redone in factory. Could be? Otherwise, not a bad price for a hard tail in good condition. And we know the spring will not need to be replaced 😉 https://reverb.com/item/81752817-1995-parker-fly-w-original-case-a...

Gorgeous!

Congrats on the sale!

Copy that. You've just saved yourself from a rude surprise! :D Unplugging the cord is very good advice for any brand of guitar (or bass) which has a battery powered circuit. I have 9 volt batteries that have lasted for years in several guitars, electric and acoustic-electric. Unplugging the cord is...

Is the battery draining as long as the guitar is plugged in?

Yes. Certainly not a dumb question. Better to ask than waste!

Wow. A lot of work for a guy with 2 left hands! I’m going to think about it.
Thanks Marc for the insight, as always.

Hello folks. I am envisioning the possibility of a mod that would be reversible, I think. Here’s the concept: On my artist, I have come to enjoy the mid split position, contrary to my other Flys. Somehow, on that guitar, the mid position is not as wimpy as on the others. I’ve always loved the sound ...

If youR 9 spring is in good shape, you should be able to use it with your 10–gauge strings, but the current one definitely looks bad and I would not keep it in the guitar.

Can’t seem to find a reasonably priced pre-refined in white, so I’m seeing if anyone has a beater Fly in need of a refinish. I have a line on a new paint job from a painter, just need to find the right guitar to have it done to. So if you’ve got one you’d like to get rid of, let me know! Exciting. ...

Well here is a bit of nostalgia for you guys. I bought my near mint 1994 white hard tail in 2017 I think for $1100 and sent it to Shazrock to fix a dent which brought it to perfect condition. And she charged me $120 bucks at the time. Total cost with shipping - $1275. Those were the days. Thats awe...

Yes. Probably a defective Fishman Powerchip.
Or a grounding issue. But less likely.

I use the AxeFxIII and I get excellent results with that. I use the tone match function or sometimes I have just downloaded some impulse responses from the net and use that. I’m not able to post a demo right now, but the results are fantastic.
