    Ken Parker Archtops - Finest Archtop Guitars Ken Parker, known for the Parker Fly, has turned his attention to making the archtop guitar an instrument that plays to the strengths of all genres. His designs use space age and traditional materials, with unique and as time honored techniques, to produce instruments that are sweeter, louder, more Ken Parker Archtops

    Reeves Gabrels playing a Fly w/ Bowie and on his own The Sacred Squall of Now solo record was my north star of cool in high school in the mid-90s to such an extent that I just learned he passed when a high school friend heard and thought of me to pass along the news.

    Ken’s Youtube is also great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDuWp2Bg7MQ

    I thought I wanted to do 3D stuff when I grew up and so I taught myself 3D Studio (R2, for dos. Layers, lofts, and tweening.) in ‘94 or ‘95 by, among other things, mocking up a Fly by eyeballing an ad for them in Guitar Player Magazine of Gabrels holding one.

    As soon as I was making any money, about ten years later, I bought one https://pizza.slow.high.quality.gravely.pizza/parker-fly-classic/.

    a wireframe rendering of what I thought a parker fly looked like based on a single magazine ad photo, which, now that I actually own one, I now know is wrong in many ways beyond simply being very amateurish. This fly was the first thing I made to teach myself Autodesk’s 3D Studio R2.The body wireframe is blue, the neck brown, and the rest black, over a white background.

    kinda neat engineering (I have no idea what I’m talking about and am pretty credulous, but, neat to me for sure), the entire thing is an archtop with no sides or back ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbBzabnNJhk), ultimately compromised to move units / be a little more practical built with a bunch of 90s stunts like carbon fiber and stainless steel and lasers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbBzabnNJhk

  5. Just got back from three days in Manhattan [NPR foley sample of the white noise of car traffic and honking, and of scaffolding being put up or town down] and had pizza for lunch all three days; Patsy’s in Harlem, Prince Street, and Sofia.

    Each was incredible in its own way. Sofia’s slices are so, so thin, but still have that perfect crunchy/soft "wow” that it practically melts in your mouth.
