Yo Check Out My New Guitar \m/

[FoulPhil]

First let me start by showing you some of my original art work.

YES I KNOW I'M AN AWESOME ARTIST!


This guitar is a work in progress as I've ordered some after market parts and I'm fixing it up as the shit comes in the mail.

I'll start with stock photos. I didn't use a flash so the guitar looks kind of pink, but as you'll soon see it's not...

Let me tell you all about it! The neck is kind of thick and feels like a Les Paul. At the same time because it's got jumo frets and neck-through-body it's nothing like a Les Paul. It's kind of it's own thing. Feels great, plays great. Very fast action for a beefy neck. You would really have to play it to get an idea of how good it is. It's way different for sure, but not necessarily in a bad way.

I hate the stock pickups on BC Rich guitars so I got these.

Very easy to install. My soldiering has gotten much better over the years! I can get it pretty clean these days.

I can't stand the Quad Bridge that's on there and I did already order a new one which should be here tomorrow. Finger crossed! I'll post a pic of the new bridge once it's installed. You'll dig it!

Congrats!

Nice looking red finish...though too many points and angles for my taste, but it's only important that you like the look.
But I get it...it's the right style for the kind of music you like to do.

Congrats on the new axe Phil. Love the artwork!

That's a mockingbird isn't it? Odd thing... I usually can't stand anything that pointy but I have a slight soft spot for a mockingbird.

Yo bros. The cool thing is on this guitar none of the points stick into you. It's very comfortable standing or sitting. The contour of lower body is shaped perfectly to sit on your lap in a classical seated position. It's sort of like a sexy version of an Explorer.

Yup, it's a Mockingbird. The mockingbird has always been my favorite and I've owned several different ones throughout my life. I think this one is the nicest one so far.

Regular price $599 and I got it on sale for $250. SWEET DEAL! I think anyone who didn't grab one missed out big time! lol

Nice Guitar! I used to play a BC Rich Eagle back in the 80s.

Congrats man!!! I had a chance to buy a similar guitar from my nephew a year or so ago. I tried it out & it actually had very nice action, & sounded good...Congrats!!!

Sweet. How's the intonation?

Sweet. How's the intonation?

It's good, but obviously something is off. They drilled the holes in the wrong spot so I had to move the bridge really far back to get it intonated. And I guess this is why it was discounted so much LOL. Still, I think I'll keep it as it's fully functional and later on I can have this issue corrected
