This is a prototype reissue of the famous BC Rich "Rich Bich" 10 string guitar. Only 16 of these were ever crafted! This one is #8. Completely hand-carved by the original luthier Sal Gonzales who crafted those famous "Rich Bich" guitars owned by Joe Perry, Brad Whitford, Paul Chapman, Rick Derringer, Jimmy Crespo, Neal Geraldo, and Dave Mustaine to name a few. The "Rich Bich" guitar was designed by Neal Moser who was employed as an independent contractor by Bernie Rico. In 1976, Neal presented a design that was so revolutionary, that it would set the rock world on fire! Neal was contracted by HHI/BC Rich to produce 25 (one for each year) reissues models of the original prototype to the "Rich Bich" 10 string guitar. Due to legal entanglements between Neal, Sal, and HHI/BC Rich, only 16 of these incredible guitars would ever become reality.
These were crafted to the original prototype specs using African black walnut "wings", a maple neck, and an authentic Brazilian rosewood fretboard. The electronics are Neal's original spec that mirrors the original prototype model. Most of these were purchased by private collectors and Japanese investors. This is most likely the only one you will ever see here on ebay. #1 was said to have sold for $15,000.00, but I cannot confirm if this is true or not. The neck is more akin to a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard; where the custom-shop models sported a thinner style neck. I've owned several USA made Rich Bich 10 string models, and while they are fantastic guitars - they don't come close to these prototype reissue models! The tone, feel, and sustain is without rival when compared to the production model "Rich Bich" 10 string guitars. The appearance of-course speaks for itself...
Comes in custom made case by G&G Cases. Shipping will be through FedEx insured delivery. (I recommend upgrading the shipping to a 2 day minimum).
Pics on the way!
