On P8E carefully selected woods come from different countries thus ..
the body is maple and comes from the United State
the table when she is very thick cedar from Canada ... the rose Oval, once dcoup and decor is re-col in the bottom of the box ... and represents the brand, model and the serial number.
The mahogany neck of India with a beautiful touch in African Ebne
abalone for dco comes from Mexico
and varnish realis Japan on a Chinese base.
The neck has a 19 fret + placed just behind the Silet and therefore plays the role zero fret before the First case.C'est a very thin neck very pleasant and very accessible for the treble.
The mechanics are Grover Sta-Tite (97 series) heads in gold - 14: 1 although precise manufactured in Taiwan.
The preamp it is an active Fishman Matrix manufactured to Eatat States.
Possde guitar microphone under the bridge and a micro apparent in the neck position, we have 4 potentiomtre, one for the neck pickup, one for the microphone under the bridge, another to achieve a balance of two microphones and finally a potentiomtre for Gnral volume.
This guitar is equipped with an output jack 6.35 and an XLR output on any food by a 9v battery.
I would add that the whole is beautifully assembled and issues a remarkable product.

USE

The neck is super comfortable I think we just play everything without difficulties of the head or one a stable tuning, j'usqu'a 12 box is the comfort .. .dropoff window
and even beyond because the heel of the neck as well very thin facilitates access to acute not to mention the indentation of the box even when leaving room for large mimines.
It weighs around 2kg, really not a burden! comfort, hand perhaps for those like me who plays sitting there the constraint of angular shape at the preamp that can s' prove to be gnante but otherwise said nothing.
Acoustics sound .... The P8 issues a beautiful sound very pure crystalline rather to treble I would (probably because of the thickness of the table) but very rich and very especially on Just .Of it is matter of taste! if you like the bass deep and powerful it is better to turn to a Taylor but I'm not sure that one is better and electro.
Cot Electracoustique then the sound on! much attention dynamic, even tend to feedback if abused! the sound is sharp, clear, powerful .... the controls are prcis, ffective, no worries the color is easy touve, fishing, everything.

SONORITS

I think any kind of music can be first with this tool, I use it with an EAR for the outside and the house I live branch on the table mix XLR she even connected two Prodipe .... ben P8 moreover .I assayer also with a marshall valvastate 80v AC also requires clear channel of course.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I use since July 2007 discovery by chance, I adore this scraped it all! price obviously does not place the door all but it's really a nice instrument.La P8 is a high end is a guitar that rivals Taylor, Lakewood, eg ...
My regret is that we talk about it any more I think in general the Parker brand is not enough Represent and that's a shame.
Anyway it's matter of taste of course, but if we talk about "Qualit and His" I said yes! and if I had the choice again? I say yes without hesitation re, that's why I put 9 it which I was forgetting is delivered course in a beautiful tui.
Here I hopes to that this opinion will serve
