I think I broke a bass playing law......

Its missing part of the locking nut, a trem arm and 2 string blocks, ohh and a B string too(I dont have any 7 string sets )

It belonged to a professional musician, so that probably explains why it smells funny and could do with a good wipe down.

wait wait! let me justify it

Its blue and only mildly pointy

I didnt get it for looks at all, I got it for the 7 strings and the trem.

And because its got 7 strings, its closer to a bass than other guitars

Thats cool. I'd love a 7 string guitar, and I'd even like a pointy one!

Not necessarily true. I know plenty of non-musicians who smell funny and could use a good wipedown.

I love seven string guitars! Used to have an Ibby RG7421, the hardtail. My only complaint was the super jumbo frets... they were more like speedbumps or alligators in the road than frets.

One day I'll have a seven string Telecaster, that's just crazy.

I like it too

If you're gonna go around sinning, you could at least try a sin that people don't find so agreeable. Have you considered aldultery? Murder? Rap?

You guys are nicer than I thought


I thought everyone would all be like: "BC RICHES ARE JUST FOR LOOKS!!! GET A PROPER GUITAR"....etc.....
the thing is, I actually agree with that statement to a certain extent*cough* BEAST *cough*
But I think non black and less pointy ones are pretty nice.
