New BC Rich? I digs

[GiantBaba]

relief holes (what purpose do those serve anyway, was never 100% sure).

speed holes

 

[Hollowman]

speed holes

they were Tone Holes.

 

[GiantBaba]

whoa let's ease up on the language

yeah I know, they're "low-B enhancers" or some such bullshit marketing name

 

[7deadlysins666]

I've wanted one of these for years! I can't even remember which band was using it when I first saw it, but it was a blue one with the relief holes (what purpose do those serve anyway, was never 100% sure). About how much do you think those run from the custom shop? I don't want to bother a dealer since I'm not in the position to throw down that money now, but always curious.

$3500+ and they are "tone chambers" and it is total BS. Im sorry, but 4 holes in the body is not going to help my low B.

[yellowv]

I need that green gunslinger. That plus a purple ceramic warpig equals total awesomeness.

Hate on BC Rich.......... Hate on them.

 

[canuck brian]

Hate on BC Rich.......... Hate on them.

For what? Delivering everything that their fans wanted?

Mahogany bodies, 7 strings all over the place, colors, real floyds...yeah. Terrible. 7 string stealths, new stealth with a Floyd/Emgs....

Ibanez releases more black basswood guitars with shitty EMG routes and it's practically a circle jerk on this board....BC Rich releases great looking gear with proper pickup routes, real Floyds and COLOR.... and they get hate. Honestly guys, they had a shitty run for a while a long time ago, but every single BC Rich i've played for the past two years has been a real quality product for a great, great price. If they release a 7 string Assassin, I'll snag one without a question.

This to the millionth power..not only will I rep you...but

And now..MOAR..because...MOAR

 

[canuck brian]

Well, there are the Ironbirds everyone was asking for.

 

[DrakkarTyrannis]

I'd have to see the maple one in person..in the pic it looks like a really cheap veneer or like it's painted on or something. I'm sure it isn't, but the pic doesn't do it justice.

 

[asmegin_slayer]

I think I will be purchasing two guitars this year from BC Rich...

The 7-string stealth,

and the maple burst Ironbird!!!

 

[DrakkarTyrannis]

I hear there will be a new trans red Draco..I'm waiting for that and to see what the Virgin will be like before I decide to buy any new guitars.

 

[Fred]

Wow, did not think so many people would be a fan of the Stealth shape! Something about it really grates with me... Especially when combined with their headstock, it looks faintly comical to my eyes.

That neon green gunslinger, and the natural maple superstrats on the other hand... Hell yes!

 

[Auyard]

That Gunslinger is way sexy. If only it didn't have a trem.

 

[DrakkarTyrannis]

Here's a lil more

 

[Kagami]

wow that celtic inlay thing is awful

 

[The Echthros]

I did want that spalted ironbird...until I saw the burst job on it...

I do wonder what the neck carve is like though. I really liked the neck on some of the JR Vs I've demoed, which is actually kind of thick.
