« B.C. Rich Bronze Series Warlock »
Published on 08/05/03 at 15:00I ordered it online from musiciansfriend.com. It was $150 plus $11 for shipping and handling. I love the way the body looks-rounded bodies lack style.
It's got so many types of distortion, especially on a good amp, that you may not even need a distortion pedal. The weight is absolutely perfect, it's not heavy AT ALL. I thought the strap button was positioned strangely at first, but once I put it on, it felt fine. I tuned the strings to AEADGB by moving them all down one slot and replacing the 6th string and for the most part it sounds fine. The head is awesome, I think I like it more than the widow head on the platinum series.
You have to turn the gain WAY down to get a clean sound out of it, and sometimes its hard to hear higher notes over lower ones. I detune my guitars to the extreme, my heaviest string is a .56 gauge tuned to low A. That string has a little fret buzz, but it's the only one.
Very high quality and an awesome design. The only problem is that the bridge has a sharp point on it that tends to jab you in the palm, but it's not enough to bother me.
A couple problems, but for the most part it's as awesome as I expected. I love BC Rich now!
