i bought this guitar before christmas for 30 dollars at GC because the neck was broken, then i sent it to parkwood and had the neck repaired for free so i basically got it for 30 dollars. It's an awesome guitar, I love it, im going to use it for my school's jazz band's performance next week!
...and then he ends it all with a typical Greg Howe solo that many try to emulate but can never equal.....absolutely soulful and singing...he is truly gifted.
I just bought a Parkwood Hybrid H2 and the tone is so dripping sweet, not to mention the versatility. It sounds just like this video with my VOX Tonelab LE. I was suprised to get some hard rock/metal tones as well. smooth neck.
There's only one BIG problem with Greg's playing of Extraction at the end of this video.... .....it finishes ! (man I could listen to that playing forever)
Damn...not only is Greg the perennial shredder of our day, but he is one hell of an articulate salesman. He explained this guitar and demo'd it better than most sales people at NAMM ever could. Most excellent!
greg will have the dimarzios in the carvin guitars i doubt he would leave dimarzio i wait til i see some footage from the clinics and ile be goin vegas ,la clinic then i see right up front:)
Someone can tell me something about the neck of this guitar? Is it something like a Gibson neck? I want to buy this guitar, but there is no one to try in Italy...
lol why does people give this comment a thumb down? It is true! Why else would Parkwood be such a small brand on the electric market? I bet not 1 out of 100 users, who says this guitar is amazing, is REALLY gonna buy one. By the way, I don't think this guitar does any of the sound amazingly good. It is the guitarist, that makes it sound fantastic. Just my opinion.
Parkwood is a Guitar Center only brand. Their parent company is Cort, who's well known. Unfortunately, Parkwood guitars are made in Korea and this is why most people won't buy them even though they play amazingly well and have great tones.
Have you ever sat down to play a Parkwood? I know that it is a Guitar Center only brand, but my GOT... they all play incredibly and sound just as good. Sorry to see GC drop the line however :(
Thats an awesome name! I wish I could find a video of him playing it, I would love to hear it! I don't believe Fender will do a non-baritone 24 fret neck for many except for big bill artists and people with MUCH deeper pockets than I. I do seem to remember not that long ago Mr. Howe was pictured with a Suhr Standard similar to the Strat behind him here. IIRC he had asked John Suhr about making a 24 fret model, as this was prior to the Modern being released. I wonder if Suhr would craft a guitar similar to this without sizable upcharge? I believe their 24 fret neck is only really offered with the Modern body profile because of the unique heel geometry. Considering the recent release of the Classic TS tough, how difficult would it be to either adapt the access heel to that platform or add 2 frets and a slightly deeper cutaway to the classic T?
scirasco1 greg played suhr and peavey very briefly laguna guitar is a great guitar for its value only really needs the real tremolo now it looks like greg might start endorsing carvin:)
I have never tried a Laguna, but I've played several Carvin guitars. Carvin make super nice quality guitars, save the type of Wilkinson trem they use. I don't much care for their pickups either but thats really personal preference. I like the tones he gets out of his signature DV Mark amps recently!
Exactly...Soldano88 I'm sure those are really good quality guitars but with a player like Greg.....it could be a rubber band and spoons and he'd sound incredible......LOL but it's all good...........
the problem is the guitar company gives the artist one of their best guitars expensive ones to show off..then when it comes to the cheap thery'r really cheAP guitars

Greg can make a broom with rubber bands stretched across it sound incredible.
This man is just a very very fine guitar player.
He has his own style.
THE IMPROVISATION AT THE END IS AWESOME !!!!! GREG YOU ROCK"!!!
Hearing that acoustic tone after that electric tone blew me away. Beautiful.

i recently purchased this guitar in america and brought it back to the u.k
its the best guitar ive seem ever!!!!
...and then he ends it all with a typical Greg Howe solo that many try to emulate but can never equal.....absolutely soulful and singing...he is truly gifted.
I just bought a Parkwood Hybrid H2
and the tone is so dripping sweet,
not to mention the versatility.
It sounds just like this video with
my VOX Tonelab LE.
I was suprised to get some hard rock/metal
tones as well. smooth neck.
That solo at the end sounds like Greg! He was in the zone on that one!
Great demo and fantastic playing!
Great job of explaining waht this guitar will do fo you, & of course great display of music by an amazing player to boot!
oh man sweet video and awesome playing! That guitar looks amazing!
I got goosebumps when he suddenly started soloing over it
There's only one BIG problem with Greg's playing of Extraction at the end of this video....
.....it finishes !
(man I could listen to that playing forever)
I, WANT!!!
thanx for post, greg is the man!
In the background, that has to be the coolest tele ever amirite?
It has one output jack but its TRS so you can use a stereo 1/4 inch cable and split the acoustic signal to where you would like. Excellent!
Hell yes brother.
Love your music, the absolute master! ! Support you!
Damn...not only is Greg the perennial shredder of our day, but he is one hell of an articulate salesman. He explained this guitar and demo'd it better than most sales people at NAMM ever could. Most excellent!
This is funny because Greg Howe could play any guitar and it would sound good!
Sounds good to me!
I was just in Guitar Center the other day, and I got the chance to demo one.
The listing price, according to GC, is $999.00 new.
Wowww! Beaytiful sound!!!!!
different tones sound great..impressive
ive actually seen a couple of these at GC but that was a while ago. u can ask them to order one for u
Very nice guiar and superb playing; his playing basicallt fits the description he gives of the guitar: amazing man.
Wow! This is quite awesome! Although the distortion was not as good as it could have been, but it sounded pretty nice on the clean and jazz.
@treyguy09 That is one of my favorite songs by Greg entitled "Quiet Hunt" on the "Five" album.
I WANT ONE~~~
Can anyone PLEASE TELL ME IF THERE EXISTS A RECORDING OF THE SONG THING HE PLAYED AT 2:18!!! That simple acoustic part is so beautiful to my ears....
hes a damnned good advertisement boy
and player too
greg will have the dimarzios in the carvin guitars i doubt he would leave dimarzio i wait til i see some footage from the clinics and ile be goin vegas ,la clinic then i see right up front:)
master god and lord of guitar, so good man
Fuck, that sounded just like a real acoustic at 2:15
Someone can tell me something about the neck of this guitar?
Is it something like a Gibson neck?
I want to buy this guitar, but there is no one to try in Italy...
Sounds like a good Home Studio guitar. Won't have to keep changing guitars so much.
does anyone know the title of the song
he's playing at the end?
Is that Fender Telecaster where's floydr. and humbucker at bridge? I've seen those made by Charvel but not Fender.
lol why does people give this comment a thumb down? It is true! Why else would Parkwood be such a small brand on the electric market? I bet not 1 out of 100 users, who says this guitar is amazing, is REALLY gonna buy one.
By the way, I don't think this guitar does any of the sound amazingly good. It is the guitarist, that makes it sound fantastic. Just my opinion.
I think piezo bridges sound better in hollow body electrics
Listen to Gentle Hearts!!!
what is the name of that song @ 0:08
according to the comment below hes playing "extraction"
Parkwood is a Guitar Center only brand. Their parent company is Cort, who's well known. Unfortunately, Parkwood guitars are made in Korea and this is why most people won't buy them even though they play amazingly well and have great tones.
7 years later korean guitars have a pretty good reputation
his clean playing was... well, clean
Have you ever sat down to play a Parkwood? I know that it is a Guitar Center only brand, but my GOT... they all play incredibly and sound just as good. Sorry to see GC drop the line however :(
Testa suada!!!
Greg é um mosntrooooo
that tele is sick.... I wonder why fender shys away from 24 fret necks so much...
its called tele in disguise its custum made and is essentially a hm strat in tele format i love this one!!!!
