    In the market for a new guitar and a quick browse of thomann turned up this interesting bit.

    The guitar - a BC Rich Mockingbird Special. Quick run down of spec looks good: neck thru build, mahogany body, maple cap, tone pros hardware, decent pickups and solid reviews.

    Here's the link to the right hand version:
    http://www.thomann.de/ie/bc_rich_mockingbird_special_black.htm
    Pretty, no ? Note the price - RRP 839, their price 688, a decent saving.

    And now the left hand version (the one I'm interested in)
    http://www.thomann.de/ie/bc_rich_mockingbird_special_black_lh.htm
    Same RRP, but thomann are selling this for 298euro

    Seriously, there must be something wrong here, aren't I supposed to be punished for playing lefty ??? Seems to good to be true - is it ?

    Definitely a miss-price but given the low volume of left hand instruments that are sold if you went for it you'd probably get away with it.

    Aye, suspected a mis-price all right...but I dared to hope :)
    Gonna chance ordering it on monday when I get paid - hopefully they won't notice the mistake in the mean time.
