MGR/Skin Manikin « B.C. Rich Acrylic Warlock »
Published on 09/29/04 at 15:00I bought this guitar because I liked the way it looked, I mean transparent, black and widow headstock! That kinda looked cool! I got this guitar for $200.00 on music123.com, that was cheap!
The neck is a phenomenon, the sustain is like forever, it has a lot of gain and it sound agressive like hell!
It`s heavy but I got used to it, it`s just a matter of 2 days. If you practice on it you won`t even nottice!
Well, the body is made of Acrylic and it`s transparent, beautifull! The neck joint is bolt on ofcourse, the neck is made of hard mapple with a truss rod, the fingerboard is rosewood,chromed hardware, the headstock is made of Acryl and it`s laminated like at Ibanez, Jackson, Aria Pro 2,...etc.. guitars. The humbuckers are BDSM probably the best factory humbuckers I`ve tryed, the can give you muddy bluesy tone and sharp cutting tone with a twist of a pot meter.
This is a great guitar overall, some people may hate it for it`s weight, but hey I`m a short guy, actually 171cm short and 63kg lite, and if this ain`t heavy for me I don`t know who is it heavy for?!? It looks great on stage, sounds devastating and the most important thing is that if feels great playin it!
I tested it with Zoom505,J-station,Genesys3,MetalZone,GT-5 and ADA MP-1 through Marshall JCM800,JMP,Heughes and Kettner Metroverb and my favourite Ampeg N-15B fliptop bass-amp, and it sounded perfect for me. If you play blues or jazz don`t buy it!
