My Parker Fly Classic. Doesn't get the love she deserves since the band broke up

MOTHERFUCKER! I've spent literally the past 10 years trying to find this guitar again, I remembered seeing it when I was a teenager and could never remember it's name again. Today, I went to a guitar store and asked the guys around and one of them helped me identify it. Immediately after that, I come here on Lemmy and see your post with one.... Lmao. Beautiful guitar, always wanted one.

Story behind it - my band had a gig at this place where there wasn't a bunch of room on stage, so you're constantly tripping over your cables. I was dead set on buying a good wireless, planned on dropping like 6-700 on a Shure or Samson I think? As I walked through the door, what's sitting on a stand with a used tag on it... I flipped the tag around and couldn't believe my eyes - $1,000.00. I just grabbed it and walked to the counter and said take my money. At first they couldn't find the hard case it came with and gave me a gig bag to get it home. Two days later they called and said I could swap the gig bag for the hard case so I did. To this day I still do not own a wireless.
