Which of you diinguished axe slingers out there have had a personal relationship with these beauties ?

    Guess no one ??? I've never even seen one up close.
      I once played a home made guitar that had Dimarzio single coils in it, and a graphite neck, which just happened to be Mockingbird shaped but it wasn't a real B.C Rich ?

      Comfortable enough body shape, not ideal, but then again these extreme shapes tend not to focus too much on ergonomics :?
        I've played three - one original early '80s US one (made by Bernado Rico himself) and a few '90s Korean-made bolt-on jobs. The original was quite stunning - one of the best through-necks I have ever played (and I've played a fair number - it's something of a fetish of mine). The Korean ones... well, the less said the better. Same with the Korean Warlocks.

        The modern BC Rich seem to be decent mid level guitars as long as you avoid the real cheap bolt-ons.

        Interestingly, the 80's models seem to go for way lower prices than I would expect - between $1K - $2K and word is that they are mostly being bought up by Japanese collectors.
          I ihave..

          Twas a korean 2005 model. Translucent red and neck through. Quilt maple top. Floyd copy, vintage bc headstock.

          Cool guitar to look at, not so cool to listen to. That particular one had emg actives (probably part of the problem), I hate emg actives..

          Neck was ok but nothing spectacular. Found it a bit dark and lacking something. Sold her for a profit ?

          Too many fiddly knobs and things and wouldn't stay in tune for anything in the world.

          All in all, I was pretty disappoint.

          Real looker, not so real twanger

          That's just my opinion though..
