10 years ago I hurt my back, and I could not sling a my thunderbird at all. I had to play sitting down. So I got the Samick thinking it would be lighter to sling, but the V rules. It is so light I can play it for hours standing and it is a lot of fun to play. My biggest beef is that it is a short scale. Sometimes it feels like a toy, but is not it rocks.

Hello, just saw an offer for a "E-BASS - B.C. RICH - PLATINUM SERIES" for 170€ (216$).

http://kleinanzeigen.ebay.de/anzeige...133949-74-3387

I like the look but couldn't find more information. Seller says it's from the 80s...

Worth to buy?

Greetings from Germany

There has never been a "Bitch" bass, there have been "Bich" basses, I have one, just sold one too

Number please?

I am the original owner of this somewhat rare 1980 US-made Son of a Rich. Apparently the ugly duckling of BC Rich at the time. She isn't as refined as her siblings, but she's still my pretty baby and has always been faithful.

Seydlitz · #**426** 12-05-2012, 07:59 AM

Now that is my dream bass. I had a guitar bitch many moons ago and would like a bass.

My Bitch (

) 1983, koa wings underneath the paint, with stringers. Will have it stripped and refinished eventually.

Anyone knows how much this mockingbird is worth? Thanks.

dereksilloway · #**430** 12-20-2012, 08:27 AM

That is a Custom Shop mock. My records say it was made in 1997. It was ebay not too long ago, I cant tell you how much its worth but you dont see many arch top Mocks around. And it is a custom shop model...so you figure it out from there.

Darmatyoru · #**431** 12-20-2012, 08:31 AM

Thank you for the info!

I was trying to put a number to it. =\
How much did it go for on eBay?

dereksilloway · #**432** 12-20-2012, 08:40 AM

I know, but "worth" is hard to measure. Mockingbirds are one of my least favorite BC Rich designs, so naturally, Id be willing to throw way less at it than someone who wants a custom shop arch top mock with hideous gold hardware! All I know is how much I would pay for it (hint, its not enough) so...

Darmatyoru · #**433** 12-20-2012, 03:56 PM

Hideous maybe for your taste...

Saw the bass online for $850, that is the bargain of the century, what are you waiting for?

Darmatyoru · #**435** 12-29-2012, 10:11 PM

Actually was $700

I saw it at $850, which was a Steal, if you saw it at $700, then you should have snapped his hand off, up to the elbow

Congrats, it was made July/August 1997 and would have cost thousands to buy, probably around $3k new back then

dereksilloway · #**439** 12-30-2012, 11:00 AM

That is a beautiful bass for that price. I hope you are happy with it!

Goodlawdy · #**440** 01-01-2013, 07:20 AM

Here's my new prized possession. It's been converted to headless, probably due to head stock being broken off. Whoever did the repair did as good a job as you could do. No leaning this one up against the amp. It's far too nice an instrument anyway. The tuners at the bottom kind of give it battle axe vibe along with all the switches. I love this bass.
