Wow, neat conversion. I have seen a picture of Dave ellefson playing a headless Stealth bass, wonder if it suffered a similar fate.

Yeah, an Expensive upgrade, I have them in one of my USA BCR's , a 1987 neck thru ST bass (It had DiMarzio's in it, I swapped 'em out)

I also have that set in my Spector

B.C Rich Mockingbird is the nicest body shape I have ever seen, and will ALWAYS be my favorite.

My blue platinum Mockingbird sounds amazing and is a great contrast to my American Fender Precision

Platinum used to be the "entry" level series, but all that counts is how the bass feels and plays for YOU.

What I am saying is

They were from the cheaper line of imports, however, as with every make, you can find a diamond of an import and a turd of a custom, so, if you love the bass, congrats

The platinum series was better then the bronze stuff imo. Platimums where good basses and guitars. For the basses the only real diff was passive versus active electronics and diff fretbaord inlays.
