Nickev Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 If that thing plays anything like my mate's Parker Fly guitar it is well worth the money! If you still have it when my Aerodyne Jazz is sold I'll be interested. Have a bump on me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
