1978 / 79 BC Rich Koa Mockingbird bass

[DistortedBass]

Hello all!
This is a possible 78 or 79 mockingbird. It's in fantastic shape, shines like a diamond! All the electronics work, and it comes with the case pictured. Plays and sounds awesome!

If you saw the ebay auction a few weeks back, yes it's the same bass. I've had 2 non paying bidders in a row and will not be relisting it.

I would love to sell this in person. I will ship, but would rather not if I don't have to. Also I will take paypal only as a last resort! If it's really the only way, I will consider it, but I've just been through the ringer with them enough times. I realize sometimes it's the only option though.

If your outside the USA No paypal accepted under any circumstance. Sorry.

Price is 1900.00 plus ship. She's a beauty all the way around, you won't be dissapointed.

PS- I just noticed the chicken head knob for the varitone switch is missing in the pic. I took the knobs off to clean her up and it didn't get put back on. It is included.
Thanks!

I'm having a one day sale! Today only, 1750! If it doesn't go in next few days i'll be taking her off the market. You won't find another one in this shape. I haven't seen one this good in 20 years!

Wow - that's a pretty bass

I had a perm amnd some hi heeled sneakers back in '78 that would have gone well with that bird.

2 non paying delinquents! You deserve some good luck sir! Bump!

One of my dream basses... lovely...

[sanfordandsonny]

I am not trying to be a wise acre but would you mind telling what each control does?
I had a beat up warlock of this vintage but the controls had been dumbed down to vol vol tone.
I love the darkness and richness of it's color

[DistortedBass]

Thanks for all the great comments guys, I'll definetly miss her.

sanfordandsonny Got any pics of that warlock? Love to see it.

The electronics are starting from the top knob:
Volume - volume - tone
The uppermost mini switch is for a booster
The 3 mini's are split coil front pickup, phase, split coil rear pickup

The chickenhead dial to the far right isa 5 position varitone much like on a PRS guitar.

Hope that helps.

Pm's replied and thanks again for the kind words

[The Thinker]

wow. Until now I've never seen a bass actually made out of pure sex

[sanfordandsonny]

What is the width at the nut?

[genstormbringer]

[DrewinHouston]

Sweet!

[sanfordandsonny]

Can someone please buy this bass so I can stop
looking at it every 4 hours?

[DistortedBass]

sanfordandsonny-
Well, you could buy it and look at it FOR 4 hours! or 7 or 200!
The nut is just barely a hair over 1-3/4.

And from Maryland no less. My old stomping grounds. I knew ya had good taste for a reason!

[sanfordandsonny]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!
Ok I'm gonna go with my "sell the El Toro and then buy $20 of scratch off tickets.
I have done the math a few times I just hope by bumping this thing someone else gets it and I don't have to. If it's still here in a week I'm going to have to.....
Sell everything I own!

[DistortedBass]
