I regret, however, the handle of care in finishing. As previous opinions, I agree that the finishes are not on top. There is a small crack in the varnish of the handle, but not much good. The painting of mechanical floyd is not perfect. One of the knobs is a little screwed over, so that when we turn we see that it's not super screwed right.

UTILIZATION

The handle is really great fun. I can not understand those who complain. Yet I had the opportunity to play a lot of good stuff (Schecter and Jackson's high-end in particular) and I find the handle of the bc rich really great fun. I have not stopped to change guitars in recent years to find one with which I would be more comfortable, and although I found it.
Access to acute and rather easy until the 21st cargo, now beyond this is indeed very difficult because of the tie strap. That said, this is where the strap attaches must be in terms of balance, and then after all the gibson flying V there's no 21 boxes? personal it bothers me not being able to easily play on the 24th box.
The ergonomics are very good, the guitar is very well balanced and light enough.

SOUNDS

Well make no mistake, the original pickups are not final. My previous two guitars were equipped with EMG active, so I was expecting much to lose in sound quality. But not that much. BC Rich BDSM microphones are less bad than what I expected. They have a high output, if somewhat less péchus the EMG, and are also less accurate. We feel that this lack of potatoes. but in 5150 the sound is still pretty good, and even if I plan to change the pickups, this is not so urgent as that.
Kit with a good SD or EMG, I think it will eject. I would complete when I have changed.
EDIT: I put a Seymour Duncan SH-8 in the bridge, and it is a real massacre. this guitar has a very special very heavy grain, while remaining fairly fat specific, I love. I fit the bill for the sound, taking into account the change in micro

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month. She passed the test stage.
I love the comfort of the game I tried stuff and shapes (warlock, super-strat, explore ...) but on this one I find the best comfort of playing just goes tastes and colors ...
I find excellent value for money, especially since I got it new for 440 euros on promotion.
I regret, however, the handle of care in finishing. As previous opinions, I agree that the finishes are not on top.
I would do without hesitation that choice when we finally found a guitar that suits us, do not let go.
