They probably would have done you a favor by burning your guitar, seeing as how your music is terrible and your ego is obviously huge.

wow what the hell is wrong with you?

he was just sharing his story and I am sure at the time he wrote this it was when it just happened and he was still fuming about the experience. If that was me I would be pissed off too!

take a chill pill.
They had you do a drug test and the forgot to test for drugs???

I have a BC Rich Platinum Series Beast, and I LOVE that thing. It plays very well, and sounds great. It's very bright and works great for pretty much any metal playing. The intonation is perfect, as well.

I also have an older BC Rich NJ Series ASM and it also is a great playing guitar, even though the intonation is a hair off, which I can probably fix if I spent the time to mess with it. It's got an old Kahler Flyer trem. I can't complain for what I paid for it, though. It's got a really warm sound.

I've just had nothing but good luck with BC Rich guitars, so I've stuck with them. They've become my favorite brand over the years.

What, do you work for Ponce or something?

I was going to respond to this in more detail, but a quick look at your previous posts reveal you to be a stellar example of a douche bag, so I'm not really worried about what you have to say.

You still care. I scoff at the swollen-ness of your vagina. The sand which pours forth, is beginning the Sahara to look like a bag of paver sand.

For someone who doesn't care, you sure invest a lot of time in this topic. I don't care about the incident anymore, however, in the interest of the community, I've posted this experience so that other people don't go to the store and have to deal with them.

in my experience BC Rich and Floyd Rose are nothing but trouble!

i've had three BC Rich guitars in my day and the only one worth a damn was an 80's model NJ series Warlock(from when they actually made them in america). That guitar was great and whats even better is i got it for $20 at a pawn shop......and it had a Kahler on it!

Other than that i had a BC Rich Virgin and a platinum Warlock. Both of those guitars were great for about two to three months. Then they both fell apart on me piece by piece. The Virgin actually fell apart while i was onstage in the middle of an Orcrist show. Both of the shit guitars had floyd rose locking tremelo systems on them and they were nothing short of a nightmare.

i've only heard horror stories about BC Rich for the last 12 years. the only models i've heard anything good about are the american made customs. i've actually only heard great things about those but if you want one of'em you better have some jack saved up.


maybe you've got one of those "one in a million" that came out wonderful....if so, then hell yeah.....but i wouldn't buy another one. lightning won't strike twice.

Haha, my NJ Series ASM is an American-made guitar, and it also has a Kahler Flyer trem.

My Beast, however, has a fixed bridge. It's a Platinum series so it's one of the nicer models, but it was made in Korea. What can I say, though - I love that guitar, and it plays like a dream. It sounds really good.

I refuse to get anything with a Floyd Rose... I fucking hate those things.

I totally agree with you. But you NEED to check out the new NJ Deluxe line. BC Rich has started to really up their game. BC Rich has really improved their upper mid level guitars. If you can stand a Warlock or a Jr V, you simply can't spend $700 better.

Well, I for one will never set foot in the place. If I'm close to Cumming, I just think about baseball. (sorry...couldn't help it)

BC Rich NJ series guitars were never made in the US. Though for a while, the ones on the US market were assembled here after the pieces were manufactured in Nagoya, Japan.

Granted, now they manufacture them in Korea...but I digress. And like Matt said, the upper mid level ones they make now are pretty damn sweet. Best they've done since the 80's.

Those older ones with the Kahlers are work-horses though. I've got a couple of those myself. But not the ones with Floyds. (Had one...sold it) I hate floyds in general, but like Blaze was saying, the floyds on BC Riches suck ass!

And hey, Slutrag, there's probably nothing wrong with yours that a little WD40 can't fix.
Let the joyous celebrations of Hell begin!

The plate on the back of my NJ Series says 'BC Rich - B 4696 - L.A. California - USA'.

The back of the neck doesn't say anything.
