Hebron, KY (January 23, 2014) -- B.C. Rich debuts
the latest addition to one of their bestselling lines, the Mockingbird
Plus FR. The new model will make its first appearance at the 2014 NAMM
(National Association of Music Merchants) Trade show this January in
Anaheim, California. Inspired by the successful Mockingbird ST, the new
Mockingbird Plus FR delivers the features which attracted players at
nearly half the price.
Growing demand for a Mockingbird with a Floyd Rose bridge fuels the
release of the new model. As one of the most in demand body shapes in
the B.C. Rich line, the Mockingbird Plus FR is designated to be a top
seller. Production models are being delivered to key dealers in January
2014.
The Mockingbird Plus FR features a mahogany body with a black vapor
finish to highlight and detail the figured maple top. Complementing the
25 5/8” maple set-neck is a 24 fret ebony fretboard with a 12” radius,
diamond inlays and the traditional B.C. Rich three on three headstock.
The new set-neck design features a contour delivering the sonic
advantages of a set-neck design with a comfortable neck joint normally
only seen on neck-thru designs.
Additional highlights of the new model include the traditional
Mockingbird electronics configuration of dual humbuckers with a master
volume control, a master tone control and a three way toggle switch for
maximum tone versatility. The Floyd Rose bridge, control knobs, strap
buttons, locking nut, and die-cast tuners are all finished in a high
gloss black to complement the black vapor finish.
Originally released in 1976, the B.C. Rich Mockingbird is ranked as
“The Coolest Guitar of All Time”. With its eye catching design, the
guitar has a noted list of users that include Slash, Josh Homme (Queens
of the Stone Age), Chuck Schuldiner (Death), Paolo Gregoletto (Trivium)
and Rick Derringer.
MSRP: $640.00 USD
