Finally! Baby Pics!

Re: Finally! Baby Pics!

That is definitely a tasty Parker. I've been thinking about picking up a fly for a while, just for a change from the superstrats I normally play. The problem is I haven't been able to test drive one yet as no local shops carry them. How is the neck profile on the fly?, how about the FB radius?
Thanks,
Matt

I knew a girl named Taylor.. came over to visit her friend (a friend of mine, also), and we clicked as soon as we met.. Two weeks later, she went back home to Montreal.

She was such a cool girl..

And now the Taylor 110E (May 2005). She may be a low end Taylor, but...
Great looking guitars, especially the Taylor!

Maybe it's just me- but I generally like the sound of well constructed laminated wood guitars more than the really fancy pants models. When I was acoustic shopping I had my heart set on a Martin, and I played everything I could get my hands on. I generally liked the $7-900 price range models more than the $15-2500 models. I settled on a piece of crap that sounded nice but it was cheap and the neck went squirrely.
