  • BCR Bic and Mbird

    I am not too knowledgable about BC Rich guitars, but I love the Bich and the Purple mockingbird in this old Starship video.

      10 String Biches are pretty cool looking - and actually JS rocked during this period just before the slide.

        Always liked 80s Mockingbirds. I'm kind of partial to the doubleneck Carvin, too.

                It's there...but it's hard to see. The Purple Mockingbird is shown at the VERY beginning of the video in a guitar stand lined up with the other guitars. The guitarist for Jefferson Starship endorsed BC RICH and I used to see ads with him playing that vivid purple Mockingbird guitar...it just really caught my eye. I was a drummer back then and just knew about BC Rich's from guys in my band. But I remember how I loved the looks of those guitars.

                I've been playing guitar for 12 years now, but have never laid hands on a BC Rich and don't know much about them. To the best of my knowledge, I guess they are a lot like Jacksons where the USA mades are the quality.

                  You refering to that incredible score of the Lynott used Mock? Because I don't see a Mock bass in that video, though Kantner's Bich is freaking awesome!

                    Similar (but not the same) construction methods. No scarf joints, true neck-through (no laminate-the-back of the body-shit). While Jackson employs CNC for some stuff, BCR does not. Sometimes this leads to hit-and-miss quality. Otherwise, you're in for an absolute treat. IMHO, every player should have a few Jacksons AND a few BCRs.
