Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

I have a question about, what did Parker use as a finish. Was it a shellac? or some other concoction of linseed oil and waxes.

Parker used shellac. You can use Bullseye amber shellac. Takes a little practice to put it. It dries quickly so when your done putting it on the stock, you can immediately start again. Multiple applications can be done in 1 day. I've done many stocks without taking the action off the stock. Do a google search for applying shellac to guitars. If there is shellac currently on the stock, alcohol will take it off.
