For under a grand, suggestions?

NJ Classic

Hush, little baby, don't say a word.
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

I knew that seafoamer would sing,
Because cracking jokes is just his thing.

I have GAS for a Bich...the NJ Classic's look great, and cost is far under a grand...in fact with a hard case you can gete one new for around $750.00! Jusr play as many as you can...fret work looks to be hit or miss.

1. The one I played fretted out on the high E at the first fret.

That sounds correct. I know mine has the regular ole B.C. Rich headstock and not that ugly pointy one.

anyone thought about looked at etc the agile mocking bird copy? that thing has be big time intrigued

I'd reccomend the NJ Classic series. They're neck thru now and have decent electronics in them. Walnut stringer and nice tops. Ebony fret boards. They're really nice. Last years are pretty decent too but they're not neck thru. They are mahogany though.

h8tred beat me to it. the nj classic eagle is potentially my next guitar. either that or a schecter c-1 classic.

Get a Japanese copy of a Mockingbird. They are far better than any bc rich mocking bird Ive played. Agile, or Burny(by Fernandez) makes some good ones. Mine was $800 off of ebay and its really great.

Get one of those clear plastic ones.

I highly recommend that you try one of these with the strap on it, the one I had was neck heavy, and tended to dive for the floor.

Same with the one my mate has.

I have a BC Rich mockingbird too, and the balance of it is really bad, with the one I have it's best just to sit down all the time..Seriously.

i had a friend with that problem, the truss rod was adjusted really poorly. its all sorted now though

The best thing for the balance is to move the strap pin to the side parallel with the neck on the front top horn. Makes all the difference in the world.
