This skyscraper is beautiful, matte black with white edging the most beautiful effect, a reference to the seventh head widow freight. The handle type "Hidden Bolt" is amazing to watch, it's simple, it is to fall. Obviously this is a BC Rich Chinese and finish that goes with it, so no miracle, but I bow in front of the finish and the beauty of the Chinese, at this price is great! I have rarely seen such a beautiful guitar at least at this price!

UTILIZATION

The handle is very comfortable and glides well as on many of BC Rich ^ ^ But it has the same defect as the other sleeves BC Rich ... A soft wood and fragile

After a good setting (the factory setting yuck!), Access to acute and is easy and thank you to the 24 frets

Ergonomics ... Well, it's make or break! She is very beautiful but you have to endure, let me explain:
Seated: Either you play with in the normal position as a stratum and it is 1 / 4 hours because of the tips you fall into the stomach, or it plays like a Flying and there is evil in the arm provided ...
Standing: Here everything is fine, I find it very well balanced even though it tends to put aside the cumbersome beast than is good about ... By careful against the weight! She is super heavy! It does not feel that much weight after the scratch on his shoulders, but it's true that when held in hand is heavy, and then, the fact that it can interfere with the game cumbersome Scene ... After 2 hours of repeated ', one begins to feel the weight of the beast! Back pain in perspective so ...

SOUNDS

It is perfect for my style of music to shape and then this version looks aggressive and soft at the same time I love it! I am versatile enough ^ ^: heavy / thrash, death, grind, black, goth ... among others ...
The pickups are supposed to be at high output and good for me is the m ****, but I must say frankly that I am demanding that plan there, all my guitars are equipped with EMG 81/85 or 81/60 (depending on style), then return to the microphones liability is difficult for me, with rare exceptions. And I do not know of € 600/700 guitar with good pickups so you can not fault the side of the microphones. Say that with stuff that takes the road behind it sounds pretty good but I call it camouflage lol. The original pickups provide good versatility and very correct in her clear, but do as I do, change! And you can enjoy the incredible sustain the system Hidden Bolt!
For sounds, I get everything I want in terms of distortion for clear sound .. I will not tell you I do not use very occasionally ^ ^
I play on a Randall RG50TC with good Line6 ToneCore pedal small Über Metal Distortion and it works very very well ^ ^ Anyway having changed the pickups and have a very versatile pedal helps a lot. As against the original pickups saturate much, turn down the bass!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 weeks and I am delighted at this price is great! It is just downright beautiful!
What I like most is the matte paint, stroke, and the mouth of the Invisble Bolt! It is sublime (I repeat myself but should be emphasized as the pictures I've seen are not at all representative, especially on the official website of BC Rich that it seems banal and which one sees almost no stroke)
Ha I've tried this scratch! Of all brands and all price, I am also in my 14 th year of 1 But I admit not having tried this guitar because I already had and tried BC Rich and I really taken to the mouth, a purchase thunderbolt to 1000%
The value for money is very good (even though Jackson is home to a Japanese at that price), a sublime guitar and well finished for a Chinese, the system Invisble botle ingenious, beautiful and downright convincing, enough to put active pickups, a wood very heavy and very pleasant handle.
I grateux 13 years and is the only favorite purchase I will keep in my opinion, I would definitely do it again this election!
