The Parker NITEFLY 1 and 2 (NFV1 and NVF2) were built from November 1996 to February 1998. The NFV1 model had three DiMarzio single coil pickups and Fishman piezo transducers.

PARKER manufactured the NITEFLY (NFV2) between 1996 and 1998. It was like the NFV1 but with a DiMarzio humbucker and 2 single coil pickups. The NiteFly was Parker's first bolt-on neck guitar. It had a solid contoured maple body and shared many of the Parker Fly's advanced features like a basswood neck reinforced with Parker's patented carbon fiber/glass/epoxy composite. And a fingerboard made of the same smooth, stable and durable composite material as the neck.

The NiteFly 3 (NFV3) & 4 (NFV4) models were introduced at the January 1998 Winter NAMM show and begin shipping the next month. These new "improved" NiteFly guitars were equipped with a special Fishman® NiteMix™ active circuit that allowed the piezo and magnetic signals to be mixed right from the guitar. This new active mixer & preamp circuit allowed the two signals to be summed in mono and sent to one amp or to be split in stereo and each signal sent to a separate amp selectable with a pickguard mounted Stereo/Mono switch.
