BC Rich Mockinbird - any good?

Seen em around, but never messed with one. A BCRich neck through can be picked up fairly cheap, so I'm wondering if they are decent. They certainly don't command a big resale value.

Their designs are definately not geared up toward whatever buying segment I live in, but I do love neck through body designs and their Mockingbird looks kind of cool. I am wondering about their over all quality tho. I don't know much about BC Rich.

The old 70's/Early 80's Mockingbirds and Seagulls are very nice guitars..They were pricey back then!I had a Mockingbird standard in Koa and also a very early 70's Seagull with Guild humbuckers in it..It had the coolest paintjob ..depending on the angle you looked at it the color would change{extream flip flop}It appeared green or black or blue..The Seagull was a great sounding/playing guitar!Same model I belive as Hunter used on R/R Animal...However the newer B.C's I've seen are dogsh*t

What? you mean I can take this block of fine swiss and make a song??...COOL!

That might explain their lack of resale value. I've heard that dogsh*t just isn't the same the second time around. :D
