B.C. Rich WMD Son of Beast Electric Guitar (Onyx)

Saturday, September 4th, 2010

B.C. Rich WMD Son of Beast Electric Guitar (Onyx)

  • Construction: neck through
  • Body thickness: 40mm
  • Body binding: no
  • Headstock color: onyx
  • Tuners: Grover Rotomatics

The B.C. Rich WMD Son of Beast features hard Canadian maple neck through construction, a beveled nato mahogany body, With its Rockfield Fat Ass pickup in the bridge, Mafia pickup in the neck position, and aggressive red pinstripes, there is no mistaking the sonic damage you can inflict with this WMD. Caution! Owning a WMD may subject you to never-ending body cavity searches by government “officials”.Neck-Through Construction Neck-Through construction is used on the WMD Son of Beast because it provides the best possible sustain, resonance, comfort and access to higher frets. Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high-end guitars. This construction starts with a long piece (or pieces) of premium North American maple. That piece runs from the tip of the headstock to the strap button on the opposite end of the guitar. This means that the headstock, fingerboard, pickups and bridge all are mounted to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear. The neck-through construction also allows deeper cutaways, providing comfort no bolt-on or set-neck could offer.Rockfield Pickups – Mafia & Fat Ass Bridge Pickups – Fat Ass Aggressive in its own right, the Rockfield FAT ASS bridge pickup was designed with a specific group of players in mind: those with crazy, super acrobatic playing styles. The ones at the gig that make everything look so effortless and easy. As you watch in amazement you say, “Man I need to practice” or, “That’s it, man, I quit!” This pickup’s custom designed bobbins house larger pole pieces that help transfer string vibration from pulls, bends and leads so the user gets less tonal drop off, better articulation and note definition. The Rockfield FAT ASS has a well balanced overall tone that is mean and bold with major sustain, huge bottom end and cutting mids and highs that jump out at you. Each note is full and rings true from this pickup while you take advantage

B.C. Rich ASM 1 Electric Guitar, White

  • Construction: bolt-on
  • Body wood: basswood
  • Top style: flat top
  • Tuners: B.C. Rich die-cast
  • Fretboard: rosewood

Bolt-on Construction A number of B.C. Rich guitars use a classic bolt-on construction. On these guitars the neck is connected to the body with 4 bolts. This construction offers some added flexibility in the guitar’s adjustment and provides the option to change the neck in the future.B.C. Rich BDSM Pickups B.C. Rich designed their BDSM humbucking pickups to provide a solid sound and to be durable while delivering high output. BDSM stands for Broad Dynamic Sonically Matched. Which simply means that the pickup is designed to reproduce a wide range of frequencies accurately (broad dynamic). Then they are tested and matched in pairs (Neck and Bridge) by their inherent individual and signature tonal and output characteristics to give a solidly balanced tone (sonically matched).The Assassin was introduced in 1986. It was a double cutaway that was a departure for the odd shaped models that B.C. Rich was known for up until that time. In 1986, there were other double cutaways that B.C. Rich began making with various headstocks, pickup configurations, controls and finishes. The ASM model was one of these double cutaways but was introduced much later. There was an ASM 1 and ASM 2, with slightly different shapes and point shapes, but the more pointed and sleek model eventually settled in as the standard ASM shape. The Outlaw originally had holes drilled in the upper bout, but later models were more traditional looking, they were mostly bolt on necks like most of the double cutaway B.C. Rich guitars.

Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high-end guitars. This construction starts with a long piece (or pieces) of premium North American maple.

You will find the neck through feature on all top of the line B.C. Rich models.EMG-81 (bridge position) The EMG-81 is a high output pickup designed especially for the lead guitarist. The 81 is at its best for high volume overdrive and amps with a master volume. Whether you’re playing power rock and roll, or overdriving your amp, there’s a razor sharp attack, and incredible sustain for brilliant soloing. If you’re looking for exceptional qualities in a rock pickup, the EMG-81 is the one.EMG-85 (neck position) Although the EMG-85 has more measurable output than the 81, its frequency response and string interface are different. The 85 uses two Alnico magnet loaded coils with a wide aperture to maintain a beefy low end and a fatter top end. Because of a more natural tone, it works great as a rhythm and blues pickup because it has loads of output but isn’t muddy.The Assassin was introduced in 1986.

B.C. Rich Kerry King Neck Thru Beast V Guitar, Gun Metal

Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

B.C. Rich Kerry King Neck Thru Beast V Guitar, Gun Metal

  • The Newest Shape of things to come!
  • Kahler Bridge
  • B.C. Rich Active Pickups
  • Locking Floyd Rose style Nut
  • Neck Through

Inspired by Kerry King, the Beast V is an unholy alliance between B.C. Rich’s famous Beast body shape and Speed V design. This Beast V is equipped with B.C. Rich B.D.S.M. humbucking pickups and a fully adjustable bridge with a string-through body design for added sustain. It has a rosewood fingerboard, Beast headstock and bolt-on construction. Beastly tones without ghastly prices.

Beast V Specifications

  • Construction: Bolt-on
  • Body wood: Basswood
  • Top style: Bevel top
  • Tuners: B.C. Rich die-cast
  • Fretboard: Rosewood
  • Frets: 24 jumbo
  • Scale: 25 1/2″
  • Bridge: Tune-o-Matic
  • Pickups: B.C. Rich B.S.D.M.
  • Controls: 1 volume, 1 tone and 1 three-way toggle
  • Colors: Onyx

B.C. Rich BDSM humbuckers for an aggressive, balanced tone.

Tune-o-Matic bridge with string-thru-body design.

Basswood Body
Basswood provides a warmer tone than maple and other hardwoods, along with great low-end response, and is overall a lightweight wood. It’s perfect for this unconventional body shape, a marriage of the legendary Beast and the Speed V. Looks dangerous, doesn’t it?

Beveled Top
Most of B.C. Rich’s body styles employ a beveled edge around the shape, including this one. In many ways bevels on a top are similar to facets on a cut stone. They catch the light and reflect at different angles, giving the instrument more of a three dimensional look. Some of the B.C. Rich top bevels are extreme and wide while others are subtle and narrow. Occasionally the shape of the instrument is accented by painting the bevels a contrasting color.

Bolt-on Construction
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.

The Beast V features a maple neck with an ultra-playable natural satin finish, and a 24-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearloid dot inlays. The double cutaways make access to higher notes a breeze, so you can shred away in that upper register without any problems.

B.C. Rich BDSM Pickups
B.C. Rich designed their BDSM humbucking pickups to provide a solid sound and to be durable while delivering high output. BDSM stands for Broad Dynamic Sonically Matched. Which simply means that the pickup is designed to reproduce a wide range of frequencies accurately (broad dynamic). Then they are tested and matched in pairs (Neck and Bridge) by their inherent individual and signature tonal and output characteristics to give a solidly balanced tone (sonically matched).

Hardware
The Beast V features a Tune-o-Matic bridge with string-thru-body design, for serious sustain and solid tuning. The chrome die-cast tuners seal the deal, and, like the other hardware, feature a chrome finish.

Quality Construction
King’s Signature V features a maple body for a nice, even tone–even at monster volumes. The hard maple neck with through-body design means serious sustain, and the ebony fretboard is graced with abalone tribal inlays.

This axe doesn’t skimp on hardware either, with Grover Mini-Rotomatic tuning machines and the flat-top Kahler tremolo bridge. Paired with killer electronics, this V is definitely ready to live up to the Kerry King legacy.

You will find the neck through feature on all of our top of the line B.C. Rich models.

EMG Active Pickups
In the bridge position, the Signature V boasts an EMG-81, a high-output pickup designed especially for the lead guitarist. The 81 is at its best for high volume overdrive and amps with a master volume. Whether you’re playing power rock and roll, or overdriving your amp, there’s a razor sharp attack, and incredible sustain for brilliant soloing.

The Kahler 7300 flat mount series locking/floating tremolo system is designed to drop onto any flat top guitar. All 7300 series models include onboard fine tuners and 6 way adjustable saddles: side to side for perfect string spacing; front to back for accurate intonation and up or down for ultimate action and radius matching.
