Amazing! I would’ve considered this a beater some years ago. Buy it for 1200 and strip and refinish with a natural satin finish. $2600 is just unreal to me. I had the same thoughts. That said, the $2,500 region seems to be as low as beater Fly listings sink before selling, as of late. Sub-$2.5k see...

This misidentified natural '07 Mojo with aftermarket Ghost saddles installed is missing a bar and exhibits some typical finish hazing. The installed spring gauge or preamp is unknown. It's currently sitting at $2,650+tax. Given the relatively clean face of the guitar, I wouldn't be surprised if it ...

I have one. I remain a bit of a hopeless romantic when it comes to hearing the real deal classic analog circuits in action.

The guitarAmp is a 5e7 3x10" non master Jones Bandmaster. (Not sure how you knew that) Just took a stab in the dark based on the photo and having previously seen the “Jones” amp logo while searching “master volume 5e3 mods.” For all the hoopla I’ve read over the years about the Fly being the “...

Bump. Just giving updated impressions/news on two of the brands frequently claimed to be carrying the Parker torch: Though my day job doesn't keep me off Fly Clone, it unfortunately does separate me from the house where my guitars and other toys accumulate dust. It's disappointing to admit that I mu...

Welcome, @Jeff12! I can’t say I recall seeing such a diagramed backplate on another Fly. I wonder if that was KORG’s doing.

Any chance I could convince you to show off how that red Deluxe sounds through what appears to be an awesome Jeff Jones Master Volume 5E3?

Not that I'm wanting to, but there isn't even an option to buy displayed on my end.

UPS sat a fat lady on it and the rest is history. Ah. Hopefully the seller uses this as a reminder to not ship guitars with the bar in just because they “can.” It’s the same reasoning my grandmother used to rationalize cramming every leftover and scrap of refuse within a square mile of her house do...

Well said. Now that we're seeing more asking prices seemingly grounded in reality, discussing the matter of whether a depreciated Fly is priced "fairly" or "accurately" relative to a competing listing in which there may be a difference of hundreds of dollars is going to take us t...

This seemingly haze-free Natural ’06 Mojo with no bar, tools, or accessories has had its asking price dropped from $3,075 to $2,925 + tax. Being as the seller feels their Fly is worth more than cheaper listings in which a bar and/or springs are included, I feel perhaps they could stand to spend the ...

Are you saying EBMM typically ships the guitar with the bar in, or that the Reverb seller simply left the bar in during packing just because the case closes over it? In either case, the situation caused by it is ridiculous; and I’m sorry to read of your experience.

I’m guilty of not shining much of a light on the MIDIFly (the niche of the niche Parker SKUs, second only to the Belew model). This heather gray one caught my eye, due to certain aesthetic embellishments which the seller seems to feel neither adds nor detracts from its value. Being as they’re solici...

hopefully this will go away at some point. I promise that there’s optimism in this thought: There are a few specific people in the FB groups who almost exclusively use those forums as pretense to brag about how much more their Flys are worth today than when they bragged yesterday (particularly when...

Didn’t mean to bum everyone out!

If you’re saying the customers getting duped are the profiteering would-be hoarding/flipper opportunists then, admittedly, there is something kinda “rock and roll” about this! 😎 Rather than paint all sides as guilty or complicit, I’ll just say that 100% of these situations I’ve seen or read about a...

Oh yeah: I’d ramble even more if this was a Steinberger Clone site. Last year, I sold a Steinberger on Reverb for what I felt was a fair price, and wasn’t the least bit surprised to see the buyer immediately relist it for double what they’d paid. They never had any intention of playing the thing - T...

Of course, some people view guitars as “investments” 🤷 These particular flipper practices/sentiments/rationalizations have become common in many markets, and seemed to have pervaded the entire guitar market once the djent subculture made the “blues lawyer” gear hoarding mentality applicable to any ...

A seller known for the “Google my store and message me there” practice of always needing to have the most expensive Reverb Fly listing (typically ranging from $5,000 to 9,000) is back with this pre-refined Artist for an arbitrary $6,940, plus $150 shipping, plus sales tax. For reference, the most ex...

This red prerefined Classic which, at $2,500, is currently the best-priced Fly listed on Reverb at the moment, is being sold by Sam Ash; which means one can likely haggle a lower price by calling the store directly.

Update: Sold shortly thereafter.
