The ASM Exotic Classic Deluxe cuts no corners! With an exotic spalted or AAA quilted maple top with ebony stringers, neck through construction, ebony fretboards and stringers and coil tapped Rockfield Mafia pickups, this may be the ultimate BC Rich flat top!
Neck Through Construction
Neck through construction is used on the Mockingbird ST because it provides the best possible sustain, resonance, comfort and access to higher frets. Neck through has long been considered the premium construction method for high end guitars. This construction starts with a long piece (or pieces) of premium North American maple. That piece runs from the tip of the headstock to the strap button on the opposite end of the guitar. This means that the headstock, fingerboard, pickups and bridge all are mounted to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear. The neck through construction also allows deeper cutaways, providing comfort no bolt on or set neck could offer.
Rockfield Mafia Pickups
The Rockfield Mafia pickup is the perfect choice for that warm, overdriven tone that has made some of the world's leading guitarists famous. These custom high output pickups cut through any mix with loud and proud authority, all the while maintaining an extreme balance and note definition. The overall tone is clear and rings true in any format with booming low ends and crisp mids and highs that are what timeless music is made from.
Flat Top
The Exotic Classic Deluxe Assassin is constructed with a flat top. The flat top styling gives a bold and pristine look to the edge of the instrument's shape. The binding on a flat top finishes off the edge cleanly and gives a sleek and clean look to the instrument.
