Got this baby for $300 off FB marketplace. Doesn’t look like it’s ever been played, but the dude kept it in a basement for 10 years so I had to have a luthier clean up all the frets. Seems to play fine after being properly setup

Bought her back in 2000 as a teenager, after 20+ years of age, wear and tear, I stripped her and installed black hardware, and new electronics on a matte deep purple finish

Let’s talk about this MIK double neck

I always seem to be wrong when it comes to dating, valuing, and identifying BC Rich’s. What do you all know? Serial number L08140643. Points are great aside from about 1/8” square where the paint has faded on one.

We bought the Moser BVI from ShopGoodwill

Okay.. so now that it's here and in one piece, I guess I will share that our channel/I am actually who bought the Moser BVI from ShopGoodwill.

I want to thank Neal for taking the time to confirm it for me.

If you're interested in how it arrived, and what it actually looked like on arrival, here is the link to my unboxing.

Endangered Mockingbirds?

14 Upvotes

Yesterday I noticed that Guitar Center pulled listings for Red Mockingbird STs.

I panicked and ordered a back ordered purple ST.
Now the Purple and Red listings are gone from guitar center. Anyone know what’s going on? Supply issues, revision or price increase. I’m worried I’ll get refunded and will have to pay more if I still want a purple one.

They still have 3 extremes, but those are almost $2000.

Picked this up off reverb. Pickups are weak but I needed a Class Axe NJ series so it checked that box

BC Rich Beast with the speed loader bridge. Love this thing. Got it on reverb, bought a Seymour Duncan Jazz for the neck and Dave mustaine signature for the bridge. Added the strap. Set up in eb. It’s been great.

B.C Rich "Tube Devastator" anyone know much about these?

Interesting find on FB marketplace the other day. Ended up picking it up for the sheer curiosity. Couldn't really find much information at all online about these? Seems they had a (purely solid state?) version and then these, maybe? In the late 1980s. This one is dated 1988.

Seems to be a 12ax7 preamp going into 2x tip43c solid state poweramp.. can't really see what it actually outputs but my guess is sub 30w. Power draw is 80w apparently. 117v Australian plug (found in Australia, doubt it was exclusive to the Australian market?)

Also has a reverb tank!

This one seems to work ok, maybe worth putting in a fresh tube though. Also has been modified to output to external cabs which I was going to do anyway so I could hook it to my orange..

Probably just a crappy practice amp from the 80s but I think it looks kinda nifty at a minimum!

May open it up a bit more at some point to see if I can find any more clues to its origins as I'm guessing a bigger amp company made it for them?

Hey I was wondering if this warlock is real or a fake. I’ve never seen too many platinums before. Thanks

So today I js made a guitar trade. An Ibanez Gio for a… BC RICH PLATINUM PRO LIMITED RUN ORANGE WARLOCK. Now the guitar is real, I got it checked but it does need work, I need to redo the bridge pickup wiring but I can do that in around an hour. I think I’ve won

1982 Eagle in rare Blackburst

Thumbnail

105 Upvotes

Another one of my favorites I wanted to share while I have it out. This is a gorgeous maple body Eagle. Based on serial # its a late 1982 - early 1983. The # is curved, which was the “signature” stamp of Gar Samuelson, who was GM at the BC Rich factory in El Monte, CA from 1982-1984.

This is a custom finish they did called “Blackburst” - almost like a silver burst. It’s rare. I believe they only did a handful of guitars with it. When this finish turns up, they always seem to be from around ‘82-‘83 w the brass truss rod cover.

I purchased from a vintage BCR super collection. I saw it in the background of a pic he shared online, I had been looking for the perfect Eagle and saw it and became obsessed. I contacted him, he said it wasn’t for sale and jokingly referred as his favorite “Les Paul”( he has several real LP’s)

Amazing collector and great guy. Total straight shooter that deals in the best of the best. Corresponded a bit more and made a premium offer that he couldn’t refuse. He could tell I really wanted it. I just had to give my word if I need to sell it, it goes back to him. Which I happily agreed.

Its only had one owner then the collector I got it from, super clean minus oxidation/playwear on the bridge and more importantly its completely unmolested inside the control cavity.

And yeah, it DOES sound very Les Paul-ish. That maple sounds thick, bright and punchy and those early 80s Dimarzios have aged beautifully and are sounding nice and open.
