I certainly do. It's my goal to have a massive collection of a variety of guitar/basses in this color. Show me what you guys got!

I'll start with my current collection.

2008 USA Custom Shop Mockingbird I ordered with a Beast Headstock and kahler tremolo. She's loaded with Bare Knuckle Warpigs.

2009 BC Rich Custom Shop Ironbird I also with kahler and Bare Knuckle Warpigs. I will live in a dumpster before I let her go.

My newest addition, a 2007 USA BC Rich Mockingbird bass also with a kahler trem. I never understood why other makers don't use the double p bass pickup layout. It's seriously incredible.

My 2001 Gibson SG Supreme loaded with Gibson made Tony Iommi pickups.

Yet to arrive, but just out of paint I have a USA Custom Shop BC Rich Wave. I purchased this blank from Ed Roman's shop after he died. He was known to make a lot of forgeries, as well as buy surplus blanks from a lot of factories. His forgeries are pretty easy to spot if you know what to look for. This one I believe is the real deal. Nonetheless, I have been chasing one of these for years

I recently sold this 1986 USA BC Rich Warlock. I'll miss it, but it was a necessary sacrifice to get the mockingbird Bass I just got

I love transblack on quilt, or trans any dark near-black. My favorite is very dark purple.

Your guitars are lovely, though by looks only, I'd have kept that Warlock.

Yeah warlocks are killer to look at, but they're just not comfy for me. I always struggled with that rear upper point. I tend to love "x shaped" guitars so I can rest my arm on the upper wing so the ironbird and mockingbird are perfect shapes for me

just the quilt on it though!! Even if it were a grandpa's guitar, if it had that quilt in trans black, I wouldn't have let it go. Even if it were a Avril Lavigne guitar with that quilt....
