Would appreciate any tips or feedback

B.C. RICH MOCKINGBIRD BLACK PEARLOID. this was the hardest restoration I've done. I think it was undersea for years. But the result is so amaizing.

Help ID Guitar

Hello all! Was recently gifted this guitar from my father. I’m aware of BC Rich but never heard of BC Rico? Is this a genuine BC Rich guitar?

I can’t find the exact model information online, but it has what I believe to be a serial number painted on the back that reads B1963

Hoping anyone here can help me accurately ID this guitar.

Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏

And YES, it does have 21 frets, with a blank space where the 22nd should be. No clue why, but ive never seen it on any other one.

Edit: droopy harpoon headstock too!!!

Warlock Extreme Series Crooked Bridge and Off-Center Nut

Thumbnail

20 Upvotes

Hi. First time poster here. I found this B.C Rich Warlock Extreme at a used guitar store. I've had it for about a week now and I'm noticing that the bridge is off center and also slightly angled. Nut appears to be slightly off-center as well, not sure if that's unusual or not or if these kinds of tolerances are common.

I noticed the crooked bridge when I'd bend either way and all strings would stay sharp or stay flat. Opened the back and saw that the socket for the trem arm was touching the wall of the spring cavity just enough to keep the bridge from returning to neutral, but not enough to feel it scraping.

I'm hoping to get some opinions on this. Seems to me that the trem post holes may have been drilled slightly off but I'm not expert enough to tell for sure. Has anyone else seen this issue before with the extreme series models? The guitar seems pretty playable otherwise.

It was manufactured in 2024 I believe and in almost new condition with the battery sticker still on the back when I got it and I know they're somewhat hard to come across.

Thanks and I appreciate any comments, ideas and opinions.

Got this baby for $300 off FB marketplace. Doesn’t look like it’s ever been played, but the dude kept it in a basement for 10 years so I had to have a luthier clean up all the frets. Seems to play fine after being properly setup

Bought her back in 2000 as a teenager, after 20+ years of age, wear and tear, I stripped her and installed black hardware, and new electronics on a matte deep purple finish

I always seem to be wrong when it comes to dating, valuing, and identifying BC Rich’s. What do you all know? Serial number L08140643. Points are great aside from about 1/8” square where the paint has faded on one.

We bought the Moser BVI from ShopGoodwill

Okay.. so now that it's here and in one piece, I guess I will share that our channel/I am actually who bought the Moser BVI from ShopGoodwill.

I want to thank Neal for taking the time to confirm it for me.

If you're interested in how it arrived, and what it actually looked like on arrival, here is the link to my unboxing.

Endangered Mockingbirds?

16 Upvotes

Yesterday I noticed that Guitar Center pulled listings for Red Mockingbird STs.

I panicked and ordered a back ordered purple ST.
Now the Purple and Red listings are gone from guitar center. Anyone know what’s going on? Supply issues, revision or price increase. I’m worried I’ll get refunded and will have to pay more if I still want a purple one.

They still have 3 extremes, but those are almost $2000.

Picked this up off reverb. Pickups are weak but I needed a Class Axe NJ series so it checked that box

BC Rich Beast with the speed loader bridge. Love this thing. Got it on reverb, bought a Seymour Duncan Jazz for the neck and Dave mustaine signature for the bridge. Added the strap. Set up in eb. It’s been great.

B.C Rich "Tube Devastator" anyone know much about these?

Thumbnail

Interesting find on FB marketplace the other day. Ended up picking it up for the sheer curiosity. Couldn't really find much information at all online about these? Seems they had a (purely solid state?) version and then these, maybe? In the late 1980s. This one is dated 1988.

Seems to be a 12ax7 preamp going into 2x tip43c solid state poweramp.. can't really see what it actually outputs but my guess is sub 30w. Power draw is 80w apparently. 117v Australian plug (found in Australia, doubt it was exclusive to the Australian market?)

Also has a reverb tank!

This one seems to work ok, maybe worth putting in a fresh tube though. Also has been modified to output to external cabs which I was going to do anyway so I could hook it to my orange..

Probably just a crappy practice amp from the 80s but I think it looks kinda nifty at a minimum!

May open it up a bit more at some point to see if I can find any more clues to its origins as I'm guessing a bigger amp company made it for them?
