Straight to the pictures:
It plays like a dream. The fretboard is liquid... it's amazing. Tonally it has the awesome acoustic property where it's loud while not plugged in. It's real stringy sounding... and I haven't even turned the piezos on yet. The acoustic sound is much better than I expected and I already expected amazing. And all in a package that weighs 4.5 pounds.
The mods I'm going to do to it:
new switches (they're a little scratchy and Parker is known to skimp on the switches)
bypass switch to bypass the piezo and save battery life
Seriously, get one of these, all of you.
Edit: Sorry for the grainy pictures. I'll be taking pics of it again with a DSLR but I'm too excited right now to worry about that.
Blue! I was apprehensive at first about the Black but if you saw it in person and how the guitar is almost totally black, it's a really appealing aesthetic. I'll show it to you sometime... maybe when I come by to buy the UC100? Let me know when you're free.
