Just ordered my TTK-1 from Todd at the MF, he was
really helpful. Call the Farm direct, don't buy from eScam and
Rip Pal.

Congrats and welcome to the exclusive TTK-1 club! Even before seeing your post here, I had noticed that the remaining amount count went down by one. So which # did you get? Enjoy it when it arrives!…

I forgot to mention, if you're looking for a case, go for the BCR Mockingbird 'fitted' case. I got mine from Beat Street music that was recommended here by another forum member. But shop around as I noticed prices on these have changed since I bought mine.

Thanks, looking forward to getting it. If I remember correctly its #32. I asked for 6 other numbers but I was told they were already gone.

Are they going in number order. Does that mean there's only 8 left? No bueno

No, I think there are way more than 8 left. I asked for other numbers but they didn't have them.

For now I believe you can still pick your # if it's available. Last I looked about 1/5th of the allocated 40 were sold. Like most anything else, when they do sell out people will probably want them even more. Cool

I'm actually waiting to hear back from Todd, I believe half (or a bit more than half) are gone … details to follow.

I was going by their eBay Store listing that showed 33 available. Not sure how accurate that was/is. I still say these are among the coolest guitars you can buy even if you spent twice or three time the amount on one. I think those who have purchased them realize that already.

I suspect that's not accurate, b/c he sells off of ebay too.  In fact, something worth noting … (which can save y'all some $$ in the future).

 

Many companies use eBay as a mechanism to reach buyers.  Often times, if you contact that merchant outside of eBay (especially if they are reputable; like a store), you can save the $$ by going direct.  eBay fees are outrageous, and are a business partner that most can do without … but, let's face it … eBay casts a wide net (heck, I have my eBay 'favorites' set up, and check them daily!!)

 

In a separate, but somewhat related topic … Here's a trivia question … Just the other day, I saw an item that I have been gassing for, for over 3+ years.  Only problem is that I never wanted to lay out the $$ for it.  Saw one, put out an offer out for what I was willing to pay … and the seller agreed.  Needless to say – it's on its way to me.  Can anyone guess what it is?

Yeah, not sure. Though I did notice it ticked down from 34 to 33 right before I read infmda's post. So possibly so reflection of inventory going on there? Great advice too! I did just like you are suggesting, called direct when I bought mine back in early January. In the end, I hope sales are going well, it's a great guitar! 

 

Ok, something you have gassed over for over 3 years. I bet it has to do with Warren DiMartini…

 

It's a long shot, but here goes: This?

If there are still 33 left I'd be a bit surprised because that would mean that aside from numbers 1 and 2 that TTK has only the other 4 numbers that I requested have been sold, that would be a coincidence!!!!

I'm surprised there are any still for sale, if you call direct you get a much cheaper price and look at what you get!!

Flame Maple top

3 Piece neck

Ebony fret board

Original floyd rose

Compound radius neck

Satin neck finish

And I could go on…

For me this is a must have combined with the fact it is a Mockingbird body, which I've always wanted to have.

Plus it's a BC Rich who's imports are incredible quality!

The only knock against it are the PUs. I'd prefer Rockfields to DDs but that's a pretty small gripe considering the price!

I haven't and don't think anyone can find another new guitar with the same type of custom options even close to the same price

I thought that number was high too, but that is what it says for quantity available on their eBay store:

 

Here is the item listing that simply indicates "More than 10 Available". However, if you add it to your watch list and than go back to the items in your watch list, it currently shows "Quantity: 33".

Very true guess TTK will have to give the correct answer once he confirms with Todd

                       I had 2 Usa made Jackson Ke2 Kelly guitars. When I saw the the TTK-1 I got hold of my buddy and asked if he was interested in one of the Kellys. When I got the TTK-1 Mockingbird my transblack Kelly was sold the next day! I did swap the pickups on the TTK-1 for a Dimarzio crunch lab set but I can tell everybody in confidence that the TTK-1 B.C. Rich Mockingbird is a fair match to a guitar costing double.

But it still wouldn't make any sense that they would maintain a higher inventory count on eBay than the actual TTK-1 guitars they have available to sell. Unless of course they made an error when filling in the quantity field on their eBay store listing…

So TTK, what say you on both the trivia question and the remaining supply count?

I believe about 15 have been accounted for.  I know some are on lay-away.  Probably about 1/2 way thru the lot (give or take a guitar or two).
