Click image for closeup

A new species of Mockingbird has recently been spotted that suddenly makes playing a guitar with unfamiliar feel, for the birds. The new Mockingbird Special from B.C. Rich features a classic four-knob layout, 24-3/4" scale, strategically placed toggle, and five ply binding for that classic look and feel. Two Rockfield® pickups nested in the deeply carved arch top really make it sing with ripping tone.

Other varieties of this new species also have been spotted; such as the Northern White arched Mockingbird and the rare Cherry Sunburst arched Mockingbird.
