    Truth be told, it isn't the nicest Mockingbird out there. This on the other hand:

    Or how about this! Or this? :D

    The two in the auctions I'm less hot on but that one you have there in your post is gorgeous. Black mockingbirds are nice but a bit meh when you compare them to something like that. Or this:

    It's about the only guitar that I like in a natural finish.

    Doc, just get yourself a nice black strat, single humbucker, single volume and a Kahler and you won't want that Mockingbird.

    Well then, I think it should find a new home with you, Doc. I mean for $350, you'd be ****ing mad not to! Admit it, you need that guitar and it needs you.

    It's easy - it's "BonJovi".

    :p

    I love the binding and the finish on that red Mockingbird, but again, the body is just a disaster in my eyes.

    I don't normally like pointy guitars but there's something curvy and sexy about a Mockingbird.

    Ah, but there are exceptions of course! I love Vs, Explorers and even the odd Warlock. I don't have pointy-guitar phobia, but I just cannot understand that Mockingbird. It's wrong. :p

    I don't like that black Mockingbird at all, it's horrible looking. Now the RR on the other hand, I wouldn't know anything worthy enough to play on it :P

    Aye, it's rather nice, comes with Piezos and all. If I was a Tele fan, I'd be drooling over that.
