The B.C. Rich Appreciation thread

nah, he already said Davis wouldn't order it in for him. gotta order it over tha' intrawebz!!
 
since the 80s??? wow, i blamed the wrong group of ppl. Its the metalheads with poor taste haha. Seriously tho, those asm guitars are pretty
 
hehe, play metal must look 'garang', no? :) here's a quote from the late Bernie Sr, “The funny thing about about B.C. Rich guitars, is that they got branded as ‘heavy metal’ guitars early on and that’s what made them so successful. If it hadn’t been for heavy metal, I don’t know what would have happened. B.C. Rich didn’t have a niche until someone said, ‘heavy metal.’

What really gets me, though, is that they’re always known for their weird shapes, not the thought and quality that went into the shape of the neck or the quality painting.”
 
but nato is getting very common, even ibanez rg also use nato wood

lol, i don't have a good impression of nato. The tone is pretty similar to mahogany, but still different, its either maple for a bright sounding guitar or mahogany for a warm one for me...
 
ya....nato is not my type....


i would love something more of the word "slim"

hahaha...it makes you feel for the frets...

Hows a 10-String Work?

Years ago B.C. Rich introduced the 10 string guitar to the world. Revolutionary in that it had the typical 6 string headstock, but it had an additional 4 strings that terminated in reverse at the headstock and went to tuners on the end of the body. Due to its totally huge sound and construction, the B.C. Rich 10-string has been seen on rock stages adorning pros such as Slash and Joe Perry. However until now, these 10-string instruments were only offered as Handcrafted B.C. Rich instruments.

Played like a regular 6-string guitar, the basic principal of the 10-string guitar is much like a 12-string. The highest two strings are tuned in unison, the middle two strings are tuned in octaves and the lowest two strings are single and do not have the upper octave strings. By leaving the low two strings single, it allows the player to get a normal distortion tone without confusing and cancelling the signal. When playing full chords it creates a serious wall of sound. The doubled strings are also handy for thickening cleaner passages much like a 12-string. Leave it to B.C. Rich to creatively run the additional 4 strings in the opposite direction starting in the headstock and terminating with the four extra tuners conveniently and strategically mounted in the Bich’s unique cutaway body shape. This feature makes it immediately evident which tuners are used for the double strings.
 
i dun see the point, putting the tuners at the back. Looks fugly oso.

I'm guessing that a possible reason for the design for the 4 additional strings tuned at the bottom with the string balls strung through the middle of the BC Bich is to allow a player to do away with using the extra 4 strings if they wanted and to play it as a 6 string.

his way, they wouldn't have to deal with the awkwardness of 4 empty tuners on the headstock.
