The B.C. Rich Mockingbird ST features maple neck through construction, a nato mahogany
body with a AAA quilted maple veneer, and a Floyd Rose Original tremolo. It's equipped with Rockfield Mafia Pickups, coil
tap switches, reverse phase switch and the 5-position tone knob. Inspired by a Mockingbird that a certain top hat wearing
legend plays, the Mockingbird ST is, in many ways, very true to the original.
Neck-Through Construction
Neck-Through
construction is used on the Mockingbird ST because it provides the best possible sustain, resonance, comfort and access to
higher frets. Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high-end guitars. This construction
starts with a long piece (or pieces) of premium North American maple. That piece runs from the tip of the headstock to the
strap button on the opposite end of the guitar. This means that the headstock, fingerboard, pickups and bridge all are mounted
to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear. The neck-through construction also allows deeper
cutaways, providing comfort no bolt-on or set-neck could offer.
Rockfield Pickups - Mafia
Bridge Pickups
The
use of a ceramic magnet gives any pickup extra power due to the increased magnetic field they provide. This feature makes
the Mafia pickups produce a hotter and thicker tone that's really aggressive and full. The increased low end, thick mids and
in your face highs is what rock and roll was built on! Balanced and full of sustain this pickup is a great representation
of its namesake, a truly intimidating killer.
Neck Pickups
The neck version of the Mafia pickup is just as
full sounding as the bridge position, without taking away from what has already been accomplished. Very minor modifications
to the overall design and design concept of this pickup gives it punchy, bold tone with the same aggressive characteristics
as the bridge version. A tad brighter with a little less output really takes this pickup into the smooth and warm realm of
the tonal spectrum. All while maintaining that balanced bite and in your face aggressive tone that the Mafia is known for!
Beveled
Top
The Mockingbird ST Electric Guitar employs a beveled edge around the shape. In many ways, bevels on a top are
similar to facets on a cut stone. They catch the light and reflect at different angles giving the instrument more of a three
dimensional look.
