The B.C. Rich Guitar Company continues to evolve and deliver high performance guitars and basses with stunning style. From handmade custom guitars to affordable standard import series guitars, B.C. Rich has the right guitar at the right price for every player. Whether through shape, features or performance - no other guitar sounds or looks more like heavy metal than B.C. Rich.
From the outrageous Beast to the infamous Mockingbird and Warlock to the legendary Bich models, B.C. Rich electric guitars have earned their rock-solid reputation on concert stages around the world. That’s why influential players have made B.C. Rich guitars their weapon of choice. No other guitar grabs the attention like a B.C. Rich.
The Signature Warlock Bass designed by Paolo Gregoletto of Trivium demands the most from his B.C. Rich Warlock bass - now you can too. In either 4-string or 5-string configuration, this bass is built to rock.
A number of B.C. Rich guitars use a classic Bolt-on construction. On these instruments a neck (typically maple) is bolted on with 4 screws to the body. This construction offers some added flexibility in the instruments adjustment and provides the option to change the neck in the future.
All B.C. Rich imported bass guitars are equipped with either passive or active EQ B.C. Rich bass pickups. The passive versions are black P style pickups and have open face pole pieces. These factory B.C. Rich pickups give a good solid response across the bass spectrum eliminating unwanted muddy undertones. The B.C. Rich active EQ bass pickups are still P style, but they have a black sealed smooth top. With the active EQ circuit (9 volt battery required), the clarity and attack are boosted. The center detent tone pots give the player a wider range of sweeping tone control to provide the maximum low end clarity and power.
Some of the B.C Rich shapes are offered with a flat top. The flat top styling gives a bold and pristine look to the edge of the instrument's shape. Usually when the flat top feature is used, B.C. Rich adds a stripe of single or multi-ply binding around the edge in a complementary color. The binding on a flat top finishes off the edge cleanly and gives a sleek and clean look to the instrument.
When you need vicious tones, consummate playability and drop-dead looks, you need B.C. Rich!
