I've wanted a Mockingbird since I was like 14. I've always liked the shape, it's aggressive and elegant. It took me nearly 15 years to finally pull the trigger, and I am absolutely ecstatic. I always thought it would be a great guitar for heavier music, but I've found the clean tone ridiculously inspiring all on its own. it's a slightly hot, but rolling the volume down a bit and it's golden. The set neck is gorgeous. I'm not a fan of big old metal plates on the backs of my guitars, so I love the set neck. Everything about this guitar is amazing. I absolutely love it. This is likely to be the guitar I pass down to my children.

Got this guitar as an Xmas gift about 15 years ago. Sounded great then, sounds great now. Lost its bridge a while back, but I bolted it back on. I've also installed a humbucker in the bridge position, which was completely unnecessary but i don't regret it haha.

I got mine for free, the actual value probably isn't any more than like $80. I'm planning on modding it, turning it into a tele, basically.

I friend gave it to me when he moved to a smaller apartment. It's got a built in tuner which comes in handy (when the battery isn't dead).
