Feeling quite Rock n Roll today

[kodiakblair]

Years back I'd sometimes see these strange shaped guitars an basses and was never sure who made them.
Then the hair metal thing happened and there was no escaping BC Rich designs.

I'd always liked the Mockingbird over the Bich or Warlock models but never really thought about getting one,
would be nice though.

So start of the week finds me in Doncaster working and Gumtree tells me there's a Mockingbird for sale in
Edinburgh for £200 . Not a hope in hell I think, but on the off chance I text the fella last night while travelling
back and he still had it

By 1.15pm I was the owner of a Heritage Classic in great nick ,his Ironbird was played to hell as is only right for
a rock warrior type bass.

Anyway here's my 1st impressions. Strap button needs moving to heel of neck to fix the neck dive,Thunderbirds
are nothing compared to this. Right solid build on this one and a good quality finish.Looks damn fine.

Playing-wise the neck's wider than on my later Peaveys but that just means I have to play it more till I get used to
it.Quiet pots and quite a growl with the twin pups. Think I could get well used to this one.

Definitely worth £200

Of course it would be a post from me without a Peavey,this arrived the night before I left for Doncaster.
Gonna put it through it's paces tomorrow and post more. Peavey G bass

Dont normally like though neck basses that show it on the front but in combination with that gorgeous finish it really looks sweet. Always fancied trying a twin split pickup setup as well, congrats!

Thanks Subbeh.

I always thought if I was gettin a Mockingbird it would be a Plus model with the bolt on neck.This has turned out too be a good buy.

Always wanted a peavey GBass! Looks mint!

The mockingbird is lovely, not my thing, but still lovely.
