Parker Guitars Goes Solo
February 3, 2000
Five years ago, Korg USA invested in a new guitar
line, Parker Guitars. While starting small, the Parker line of guitars
quickly grew into a full range of products.
As of February 1, 2000, Korg USA will hand off the distribution of Parker
Guitars to the Parker Guitar factory in Wilmington, MA. Company founders
Ken Parker and Larry Fishman, along with CEO Drew Hannah, comprise a strong
product development and management group. The sales and marketing team
is now being assembled and will be in place for a seamless transition.
The Parker line includes the Parker Fly and NiteFly, both solid-body
electrics equipped with custom Fishman piezoelectric and DiMarzio magnetic
pickups. The company offers two solid-body acoustic guitars, the steel-stringed
Fly Concert and the nylon-stringed Spanish Fly. The company recently introduced
the MidiFly.
