Click on the link below to view an Introduction to the B.C. Rich Mockingbird ST Electric Guitar##youtube 17007##Beveled Top:Most of B.C. Rich body styles employ a beveled edge around the shape. In many ways bevels on a top are similar to facets on a cut stone. They catch the light and reflect at different angles giving the instrument more of a three dimensional look. Some of the B.C. Rich top bevels are extreme and wide while others are subtle and narrow. Occasionally the shape of the instrument is accented by painting the bevels a contrasting color.Neck-Through Construction:B.C. Rich is known as one of the pioneers in Neck Through construction. They utilize it on many of their guitars because it provides the best possible sustain resonance comfort and access to higher frets. Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high end guitars.This construction starts with premium North American maple or Mahogany and runs from the tip of the headstock to the end of the guitar. This means that the headstock fingerboard pickups and bridge all are mounted to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear.The neck-through construction also allows us to cut away more of the body and neck at the neck joint which provides comfort that no bolt-on or set-neck could offer. You will find the neck through feature on all of our top of the line B.C. Rich models.Rockfield (Mafia) Pickups Bridge Pickups The use of a ceramic magnet gives any pickup extra power due to the increased magnetic field that they provide. This feature makes the Mafia pickups produce a hotter and thicker tone thats really aggressive and full. The increased low end and thick mids and in your face highs is what rock and roll was built on! Balanced and full of sustain this pickup is a great representation of its namesake a truly intimidating killer. Neck Pickups To make sure the neck version of the Mafia pickup was just as full sounding as the bridge position and to do this without taking away from what has already been accomplished very minor modifications have been made to the overall design and design concept of this pickup. The Mafia neck pickup has that punchy bold tone with the same aggressive characteristics as the bridge version. A tad brighter with a little less output really takes this pickup into the smooth and warm realm of the tonal spectrum. All while maintaining that balanced bite and "in your face" aggressive tone that the Mafia is known for!Features/Specifications:Body & Bridge:Body Wood: Nato (eastern mahogany) with ebony stringers Body thickness: 45mm Top style: Beveled Top wood: AAA quilted maple veneer Bridge type: Floyd Rose® original tremolo Finish: stained trans glossy Neck:Construction: Neck Through Headstock Style: Traditional 3 to a side Headstock Colour: Natural Rosewood Faced Neck Wood: maple Neck Radius: 12"Back of Neck: stain to match Nut Width: 43mm locking Fretboard: Ebony Inlay: small white pearloid diamonds Frets: 24 jumbo 2.7mm Scale: 24 5/8"Pickups & Hardware:Pickups: 2 black open Rockfield® mafia™ humbuckers Tuners: Grover Super Rotomatics Controls: 2 volumes 1 tone 1 three-way toggle individual mini switches for pickup coil tap and reverse phase and one 5 position varitone tone filter.
