Hey guys.

I have finally gotten all my BCR's in one place to take a family picture. I have never been able to do this either because i have had new ones on their way or in repair (Mostly the latter as i have had problems of some description with every one of them! :lol: )

So without further ado, My family

This is my 80s B.C. Rich NJ series warlock. It was given to me by a friend, and it needs a ton of work. New Tuners, New nut, Inlays need to be re-done, may need some fret work, new bridge, pickups, electronics, strap buttons. Essentially, all I have is a body, a neck, and a DiMarzio split P pickup that I bought for it.

I have tuners, p up, nut, and a bridge from my U series Warlock. PM me if you would like them.

I've just got to jonesing for an Eagle...had one in the early 80's. Neck through w/ Barts. Beautiful white finish...I sold it for...never mind. That was the last life

Here's a shot of my Wave Bass.

Oh, man...I think I'm in love.

 

[Bibleman]

Me too

I've never needed another bass. I got this, and I was like...well, got that bass thing covered

I told my wife to either bury me with it, or burn it with me, but we're goin' out together

Can someone give me a rundown of the functions of the switches and knobs of the old American Riches? I used to have a USA mockingbird and I remeber there being a phaser, that's all that's coming to mind though. Thanks!

As I watched Spinal Tap last weekend, I was looking at the pickup placement on Derek (Harry's) Small's Richs, and the split pickup pockets are backwards to the regular USA made richs. I own an NJ neck thru, as well as 2 usa mocks. The nj's pockets are opposite of the USA mades. I wonder if those rich bass were all nj's. Cos they sure don't appear to be USAs.

Also, the black mock was short a knob from the classic USA config.

Additionally, the inlays on the eagle were dots, not diamonds.

I don't understand the double neck bich bass having exactly the same setup on both necks. It does look cool tho.

I'm really not big on the crazy shaped BC Riches, but the Wave and Eagle look very nice to me. Just conventional enough to be classy, just weird enough to be cool and "different"... I got a Wave gui*ar with a quilted maple top, but I've wanted a Wave bass for years and years...never found one for sale that was in my price range or appealing to me (the blue glitter sparkle or white with black spiderweb pattern is just a little over the top for me). Figures...the one BC Rich I *really* like, and they take it out of production in favor of these freaky Zombie and Beast....things... Well, I'll keep saving pennies, and someday I'll either run across one I really like, or I'll get the custom shop to build me one. Or I'll make the flippin' thing myself... LOL

Sweet, I've had this since the late 70's. S/N is 78688. I am considering buying the 8-string Bitch, pictured hanging on the wall in the 2nd picture. Can anyone put a $$$ on it?

Please send me some more pictures of your Eagle to

[email protected]

And What 2nd picture?

Send me pictures and the serial of the Bich and I'll have a stab at what it is roughly worth

 

[coastal-tony]

My bad, that second picture is too large to post I'll try to re-size it. I'll send you pix directly.

Anyone know how to delete images? I get a message that I am over my quota of pixels

Simple-hit the "Edit" button in your own post and remove the picture link

 

[coastal-tony]

THANKS, I'll start clearing old pix outNow does anyone have an idea of what these are worth?,

 

[mikeyswood]

I paid $2400ish for this one:

I then added a Badass III to make it playable...

What is it worth to you? They don't come up for sale very often and when we find them we keep them
