The specialty of BC Rich's original forms, an excellent price / quality ratio and direction very metal. Everything is there. Trans-black finish is nice.

UTILIZATION

Handle very nice, fine and fast, ideal for quick phrasing. Easy access to acute. As against the weight is far from negligible and the balance of the beast remains precarious (the form does not help either!). Little trick I use to balance it: I wind the strap on "dorsal fin" of the beast and the balance due. It's been less class, but it's effective. The shape is not a particular concern (not like a beast for example !!!).
The floyd rose licensed tuning issue is not perfect after the vibrato furious. But nothing bad either.
This is very nice to play on a guitar that stands out.

SOUNDS

Of course it is for the metal hairy tattooed (for tattooing that can be arranged, on the other hand for hair ...). And then there is the BC Rich recipe: sounding humbuckers for heavy and remain accurate. And yet they remain relatively versatile on clean sounds. Not so extreme that it's the bat.
In short you will find what you came for and the song goes with the plumage.

OVERALL OPINION

In this price range, the benefits of the Warlock is more than respectable. Quality / great price, sounds to go, all with an original design.
The bad thing with BC Rich traditional: the lack of cover provided, and not always easy to find a model that works (I'm thinking particularly of the beast!)

-Chinese-made
Mahogany neck-through-24 frets, ebony fingerboard (yum) 1
Bc rich sub-floyd lisence, very bad, -2 for the price of a good rises ca buy a floyd the price of a skyscraper 650 250 = € 900
-2 Double bc rich (great surprise)
-2 Volumes a three-position selector type tonalite gibson
Nato-body (very good sound)
Very-good finish for a price
Lutra not great at the knockout box for microphones -1 (on mine to get high the bridge pickup is really bad so even -1)
Mechanical-shit -1 (I am the severe vi there is a beer of good quality rope)
-Value for money: a little expensive compared with the overall quality (if you count the purchase of an original floyd) -1
Total 5 / 10

UTILIZATION

The handle is a real treat if you like a little round handle type gibson.
access to the acute lethal grace is the profile of the neck-through.
The ebony fingerboard is beautiful, very pleasant

Electronic level two volumes a tone selector 3 positions a very good position for my taste, very easy to use so

hardware level: the Macanese are disgusting and floyd does not HOLDS ACORD after use -1 only because if we change the floyd (which I also dry) block string offsets the bad Mecas

Total 9 / 10

SOUNDS

So that's where it becomes more interesting and more surprising:
BC Rich is the microphones Excellent (I say that I am an Unconditional EMG, I play sometimes DiMarzio, and somewhat more rarely duncan, and only three brands!). the choice of microphone is always something very delicate following the result that is desired, and I thought choosing a pure tone zone / paf pro on the guitar. I still wanted to try at home quietly original mics (one never knows), but not of ilusion me because I always was very disappointed microphones "offered" with guitars (v7/v8, DiMarzio IBZ, RN, gibson epiphone in design, jackson, duncan design, etc. ...). and many of the friends: slap in my face!
These microphones have a real character and a very strong personality, a grain halfway between DiMarzio (Tone Zone) and Duncan (sh4), a large full dynamics on top of that, and an output level to rival the concurrency ( same EMG). While there is a black dot: the precision. it is not catastrophic, but the accuracy is still far from the high-end concurrency.
this little personal lack of precision gives bcp charming and quite frankly I wonder if I'll change the pickups ...

in addition to being well made, they are very versatile, you can play everything with: jaz, blues, Detah metal, heavy rock that spot, neo, etc ...

I basically ssuis under the spell of the couple grate micro in terms of sound and if I could I would put 25/10

I can already hear the purists go me beaten up: do not care because I know what a very good scratch (les paul, sg, RR1, start us, eclipse, etc ...) and frankly the price diference is far from justified

OVERALL OPINION

Unfortunately nothing is perfect, and this guitar proves it, as the sound is mortal, the finishes are great for the price, the comfort of game is Excellent, but frankly even if it is not € 650 a ruin it is expected Honesty in all have a Luter meileure of quality ... floyd the horrible, that price has not be asking too much.
writ as stated at the beginning: a little expensive for what it is (-1) but hey you have to take into account qqchose much more subjective: there are only bc rich warlock who makes and models Chinese are the easiest to find so if you like ...
