BC Rich Guitars are still my faves

Why I use BC Rich Guitars

Hello all the album is coming along, but slow LOL.
But I wanted to tell you all why I use BC Rich guitars as my main recording axe.
I have owned some really nice guitars over the years but my old BC Rich NJ Series Warlock is still my favorite because it simply has a better neck than many other so called high end guitars.

After all the years of playing it still keeps staying in tune and playing just like when it was new. I bought this guitar back in 84 when I was trying to get a better sound than I had with my strats and Gibson’s. This BC Rich sounded big and fat and had highs that blew away the others. At the time I was playing through Crate amps and Marshall’s. Now days I use a Behringer V-Amp 2 with a power amp. My sound is vastly better than it was back in the 80s and the Rich has kept up.

I recently bought a Cort Strat and dollar for dollar it is a great axe. But even as the Rich gets older and needs some serious work in the electronics department I still find myself playing is more than the Cort. There is nothing wrong with the Cort and I recommend them as I feel they make a fine interment for the value. But this old NJ Rich just keeps on going as if it was new. My reason for getting the Cort is that is was cheaper than fixing the Rich and I felt that the look of the Rich was not right for my stile now days.

But stile can only go so far and for that matter it really does not matter at all. After all we are playing music and it comes first. I’m obviously not a Metal player and yea I admit that the Rich is a metal guitar. But Metal or not its still the best damn guitar I have ever played and I just can’t imagine playing on stage with a guitar that does not sound as good as this one. Further more the Neck is Rocket fast and smooth. I just wanted to share with all of you my love for BC Rich Guitars and especially the Pre 89 NJ Series.

Try one out and you to will be a BC Rich fan for life. Don’t worry that it looks like something that came from a hair band of the eighties. All that really matters is that it is a good guitar and it sound and plays good.
