Topic: BC Rich Mockingbird?

Greetings, does anyone here have any expertise on BC Rich guitars?  I am being offered one for a trade worth ~ 700 bucks.  The guitar is supposed to be a 1980 BC Rich NJ series (made in japan).  It is a beautiful shade of red, neck thru, non trem, and has 3+3 tuners with old style BC logo.  I have pics to forward.

I had the exact same guitar in my hairmetal days, only white  cool
Not the guitar I miss the most, I must say. US models were way better.
