I purchased this bass in September 2003. I was researching guitars on the internet and found this one. I paid AU$1200.00 including a hardcase. I bought it from a music store in Blacktown near Sydney. I read reviews on this guitar and decided to purchase for the pick up configuration & looks

I like the bottom end and thump of this bass. It has 4 p style pick ups configured into two HBs. It really is a big heavy sound. I tune to C so you can really notice the power

It is very pointy and has the tendancy to get a few chips. I have been extremely lucky and take very good care of it, I have only one chip on the headstock. It was easily fixed

It is a bolt on neck. Did not initially take to the low tuning of the strings. Truss rod & bridge adjustments had to be made to correct intenation & string tension. It has a solid body and rosewood fret board with diamond inlays. It is top heavy, so the head stock falls. Easy to get use to. Action is great. It has a very large body. It also has a surprisingly large range of tone adjustment from very trebely to very very very low bottom

FANTASTIC GUITAR!!!! BEST EVER BC RICH. If you are looking for massive sound, loads of bottom end. Fantastic shape. Great playability. I would have expected to pay alot more for what I have.
