Following the success of the PM20 single cut series, Parker Guitars is pleased to reveal a Pro version of the best-selling PM20. The PM20PRO features a mahogany arch top body, a mahogany set neck, and a string through body design. With significant upgrades to the PM20 that feature a Seymour Duncan™ Humbucker SH 2n JB Black humbucker in the neck, and a TB-4 Black humbucker in the bridge, the Pro version also has Sperzel™ locking tuners and the patented TonePros™ bridge system.

The PM20 PRO’s mahogany set neck has an ebony fingerboard that shows off Parker’s lightening fast playability. A White Pearl Star inlay at the 12th fret and Abalone purfling around the body makes the Pro version look as gorgeous as it sounds.

The Parker PM20PRO will be available at Winter NAMM 2006 and offered in the stunning color options of Pearl White or Flame Honey Burst. The Parker PM20PRO’s list price is $1198.00 and will include a custom heavy duty gig bag.
