Re: Not a Parker
Hey Musikron —that Petrucci Music Man “Majesty” guitar is kind of Fly-ish in terms of feel, balance, and electronics. Of course: it’s not a Fly in many ways, but if I was looking for a seven-string, I’d consider that model. Headless guitars, in principle, will not have the same feel as a Fly, so, if...

Re: Number of Parkers Sold?
Eventually, Fly Clone will focus on identifying the best ways to accommodate multiple Flys by dormer-ing out your upstairs!

Re: Number of Parkers Sold?
Hey InsideInfo , There is some data known, but it’s largely about total guitars sold. I do have some old records about production, but, unfortunately, nothing complete, and nothing that notes specific colors for a large span of time. Ken Parker estimates 30,000 guitars came out of Wilmington, which,...

Re: Piezo Pickup Not Producing Sound - Troubleshooting Help?
Glad this is working out, no doz ! Thanks for these photos! I’ll let others chime in, but my spidey sense tells me that the preamp is, in fact, the problem, and then if you switch to, for example a Fishman power shape, you’ll be in good shape! I’m not an expert with piece of electric transducers, bu...

Re: Piezo Pickup Not Producing Sound - Troubleshooting Help?
Hi no doz , and welcome! It sounds like something is wrong with the Fishman NiteMix pre-amp inside of the guitar. If you look inside, you’ll see that the piezo elements under the saddles connect to a summing board under the bridge and then the signal connects to the preamp. It’s less likely that the...

Re: Fly pre-refined concentric piezo knob
https://www.bestbassgear.com/bartolini-black-plastic-concentric-stacked-knob-set.htm The bottom part is not the same as the one on our Flys, but, together, I think they’re spot on. This particular link seems to have those knobs backordered, but I’ve put in an order right now regardless, and I’ll co...

Re: PM24 Pro
Am I correct in thinking this is a poor mans Mojo? Meaning a poor man's "Mojo Singlecut"? I'm not very familiar with these models, but this looks like the Mojo Singlecut without all of the composite material treatments. I seem to recall jb63 saying a while back that these were pretty rock...

Re: Springs
Terrific, @7 Dying Trees; welcome! Congrats on your Fly!
I believe Mike G. may have some new springs coming in made to the same specs they were using during the USM days, so I’d keep an on his inventory as well if that’s of interest.

Re: NiteFly NiteMix External Fishman Piezo Preamp
Don’t forget the Fishman Powerblend pedal, a much larger version with a built in volume pedal for the piezo, xlr and 1/4” output for the piezo plus a few more features. I sold off my Nitemix when I got a Powerblend. That’s great, DavidE ! I didn’t know about the Powerblend pedal! Looks like it does...

Could have been a slide player. Maybe ask the previous owner (if that’s who sold it to you)?

Re: Crazy high action in nitefly
there is a slow cycling sound on like when you tune a string to another when its slightly out of phase. It's as if there's a slight tremolo effect that that becomes more pronounced the higher up on a string you play. It happens without being plugged in. WTF?? That could be a weird resonance caused ...
