MGR/Jamey « B.C. Rich Bronze Series Warlock »
Published on 06/20/04 at 15:00bought from spectresound.co.uk, after someone kindly told me " you can't play metal with a cream strat mate" i think i paid £189 plus £10 p+p about a year ago now
action is lovely and low, stays in tune pretty well. The pick-ups are pretty decent, iv used it on stage a number of times despite many people opinions of it not being gig worthy and its been great. I got the version with the widow head stock which is great because i was expecting the 6 in a row head stock. Some people on here have complained that its quite heavy i dont think it is, it does feel very stirdy an i hav battered the poor thing an its come away with only minor scars an chips out of the points on the head stock. The bridge can make it a little difficult to restring but the bridge makes it great to do palm muting so as they say swings and round abouts... i think thats what they say anyway!
A whammy might be good but i wouldn't use it so i'm not gonna knock marks off. See above for slight restringing problems but not a huge problem.
very solid in construction, feels like you could take a hammer to it and the hammer would come off worse, no really! Deffinately no complaints.
a great guitar, i think its under priced... its gigable and of very high quality... if you are a metal fan an need a quality metal guitar this is it! Just another point, don't be put off by the fact Mick Thompson uses one, i don't mind slipknot but am not a masive fan, but Max Cavalera of sepultura/soulfly who is a hero of mine used a warlock for many years, so it isn't just a slipknot guitar... honest!
