Product Information
BC Rich Mockingbird ST Electric Guitar - Trans Red
BC Rich claim that the Mockingbird ST has been inspired by ex- Guns and Roses guitarist - Slash. It has several additions over and above the configuration of the original Mockingbird such as a number of phase switching options and a Varitone filter ...
The body has been crafted from Nato wood with Ebony stringers that then has an AAA Quilted Maple Veneer over the top, the neck is made from Maple and houses an Ebony fretboard with small white pearloid diamonds as fret markers. The pick-ups on the Mockingbird ST are in fact Rockfield Mafia Open Coil Humbuckers and are controlled by a variety of knobs and switches to optimise tone and frequency options.
Firstly, each pick-up has its own volume control - tone is controlled from a single master tone knob, there is then a variety of toggle switches - 3 x mini switches for pick-up coil tap and reverse phase options, plus a 5 way Varitone filter. A 3 way standard toggle switch is used to select pick-up activation and configuration ... The tremolo and bridge are a licensed Floyd Rose model and all hardware including the Grover Super Rotamatics machine heads is finished in matt black.
Reviews
This is an impressive and imposing looking instrument ...It has a variety of controls that will provide good tonal options. The shape and tone woods used are similar to those on the original model but otherwise the ST has many new features ...
Tone wise this guitar has many interesting variables - the coil tap switches for example will create many more tonal varieties - as will the passive varitone filter. The upshot of this is that the Mockingbird ST suddenly becomes a much more versatile guitar and is not merely the rockmonster that it appears to be at first sight ...
This guitar may therefore appeal to a wider range of players than just the rock and metal genre, during my brief time in the company of the ST I was able to dial-up a variety of different sounds and was surprised how well this guitar transitioned into other playing styles .. it really is one to check out and I'm sure you be as surprised as I was how flexible this instrument is ... available now at the Nevada Music Warehouse ...
