Ive owned many, will include only pic I still have of my american warlock bass. I still play bc rich guitars. IT warlock and Eagle 1. I want to love the basses as much as the guitars. And newer ones have little bit slimmer necks that makes that more doable. But I gotta stick with soapbar pups. And all the bc rich basses Ive owned have been the P neck and bridge set. Though P is next best thing to soapbars for me. Still, isnt my fave pup. However the little elves at bc rich have started making some with soapbar and humbucker pups. So, theres still hope for having a bc rich bass I can trully stick with at least for 2nd bass perhaps. The shapes warlock, bich, eagle are among my all time faves for basses and guitars.
 
I just cant believe that at some point in time BC Rich let Their basses even budget ones get made from Plywood, bit of looking through the Forums on here tells me it's probably one of the early 90's Class Axe licenced Basses I/E Piece of crap, Saving grace on my £66.50 investment is the DiMarzio Pup, strap locks, Eball strings and Black hardware...
 
Just grabbed a 79 Maple eagle....great neck profile!

Very cool! I just got a 77 Eagle right before Christmas and I'm just loving it. That neck profile fits like a glove.

BTW - what's the rule? No pic no bass?;) Let's see it!!!

Here's mine. It has the earlier pickup locations - closer to the neck compared to my 80 Mock.
