Product Description

Ever wish you could get in the Heavy Metal Wayback machine and travel back to the hey day of metal? Well now you can - almost... B.C. Rich is proud to introduce the new Gunslinger Retro model with a Maple Neck, diecast tuners and a Floyd Rose Original Tremolo. Styled after some of the most popular B.C. Rich guitars from the mid to late 80s!

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.

Flat Top

Some of the B.C Rich shapes are offered with a flat top. The flat top styling gives a bold and pristine look to the edge of the instrument's shape. Usually when the flat top feature is used, B.C. Rich adds a stripe of single or multi-ply binding around the edge in a complementary color. The binding on a flat top finishes off the edge cleanly and gives a sleek and clean look to the instrument. zZounds is an authorized dealer of BC Rich products.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "If you plan on purchasing this guitar I hope yours is better than the one I got. These are great looking and great playing guita"
Sound: Ok folks this is not the import Gunslinger Retro from a couple years ago. This guitar is Basswood not Alder nor does this guitar have the Super Distortion or Rockfield Mafia pickup. The maple neck has a glued on headstock and the wood does not match the maple neck. I received mine today and it was damaged. Something smashed the volume pot and the finish was cracked down to the wood. Also the tuners were not installed straight and made it difficult to tune the guitar. The Floyd Rose Special spring block rubs against the spring cavity plate and makes squeeking and popping noises, the tuners are worthless. After asessing the damage and a re tune I plugged the guitar in and was shocked on how well this guitar played. Out of the box it would need minor adjustments to be near perfect for my playing style. As for sounds it was nice and open. Pinch harmonics for days. The Duncan designed pickup could use a little more output but for this price I can see why BC Rich had to cut cost to keep the guitar at this price point. If your looking to buy one of these guitars plan on spending some cash on new tuners and a better pickup. Or get an LTD guitar for a couple bucks more and the quality is far better. Feature: This is a no frills simple plug and play 80's rock machine. As for materials this guitar should have better tuners. The stock ones are junk! The neck could have been designed better instead of gluing a headstock to the neck. I am sure the headstock will snap if the guitar falls over. How much more would it have cost BC Rich to keep the Mafia pickup in this guitar! Ease of Use: As I said in my first paragraph this guitar played great out of the box. The bridge has some fit issues but since the guitar came damaged I am sending it back. BTW there was no manual or warranty card with the guitar. Quality: Quality control? What Quality control? The tuners were not installed correctly and makes it almost impossible to tune. The bridge was noisy as an old barn door during a windstorm. Value: The guitar is worth the price but then again I would have paid more if this guitar was on par with the Korean Gunslinger retros. Manufacturer Support: Never dealt with BC Rich before. The Wow Factor: The guitar is sexy looking. Makes me wanna rock out to some Poison tunes! Reason why I bought the guitar in the first place. LoL Overall: The guitar is going back and ZZounds has a back order on the neon green ones. I think I am going to pull the trigger for the George Lynch GL200K
