Rich spared no effort in ensuring this Mockingbird SL is outfitted with a superlative tonal foundation. With its neck-through construction, the complementary mahogany body and neck tonewoods serve as a fantastic sonic anchor, delivering rich lows, full-bodied sustain, and incisive mids. Though mahogany may lean away from the higher registers, the Mockingbird SL’s quilted maple top aids in balancing out its aural profile, imparting your instrument with an all-encompassing brightness and fantastic note-separation, expertly balanced throughout the spectrum. Similarly, the ebony fingerboard imbues the Mockingbird SL with an unmatched projection and sustain, providing immense articulation with each string to ensure leads, rhythms, chords, and solos are voiced and supported to the utmost extent.Unsurpassed sound shaping with detailed control A pair of passive Seymour Duncan APH-2 Alnico II Pro pickups bring the Mockingbird SL’s tonewood triumvirate to life, blending heat, sustain, and crunch into a versatile dyad of mid-scooped humbuckers that retain power and presence in every style of play. But what about all that other “stuff” going on? Even seasoned guitar vets would be hard-pressed to tell you precisely what the Mockingbird SL’s distinct electronics suite entails. After all, it’s not often you see an axe with such a diverse array of knobs and switches, yet each one serves a unique purpose to expand your tone-crafting opportunities. In addition to your standard 3-way toggle, master volume knob, and master tone knob, you’ve got a booster volume control that has a dedicated on/off switch alongside two coil-tap switches (one per pickup), a reverse phase switch, and a 5-way Vairtone filter. It may seem complex, but B.C. Rich’s Partial Active Electronics Package enables you to summit exciting sonic peaks that would otherwise require a litany of pedals or studio magic to achieve.Endless expressivity In keeping with B.C. Rich’s heritage design cues, the Mockingbird SL sports a Modern C neck profile that merges speed and comfort with accessibility and a prioritized hand-feel, accommodating countless playstyles with ease. Its neck-thru construction isn’t just about tone — the increased dimensional stability of the design is a massive boon to structural resilience, drastically reducing chances of warping or twisting in changing environments, perfect for the gigging guitarist. A 14-inch fingerboard radius supplies ample room to explore the full range of its 24-fret array, aided by the carefully sculpted, treble-side cutaway that results from its long-horn design. Grover Imperials Rotomatics tuning machines are complemented by a Floyd Rose Original double-locking tremolo system, making it nearly impossible to knock out of tune. Plus, B.C. Rich has equipped this Mockingbird SL with a brass block to facilitate even greater sustain, empowering you to take your expressive opportunities to the extreme.B.C.
