zZounds Gear Experts Say...

Delight your audience and terrify your enemies with the Gothic, angular silhouette of the Revenge Warlock.

Overview

This flat top version of the Warlock comes dressed in black with white binding. The Revenge Warlock sports a bolt on neck, trademark widow headstock, Chrome hardware, and one B.C. Rich humbucker that's guaranteed to rock.

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.

B.C. Rich Bass Pickups
All B.C. Rich imported bass guitars are equipped with either passive or active EQ B.C. Rich bass pickups. These factory B.C. Rich pickups give a good solid response across the bass spectrum eliminating unwanted muddy undertones. With the active EQ circuit (9 volt battery required), the clarity and attack are boosted. The center detent tone pots give the player a wider range of sweeping tone control to provide the maximum low end clarity and power.

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.

"Very Cool Guitar"

Verified Purchaser zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.

This guitar looks a lot better in person than the pictures show on the web. It's very shiny, nice clean (and sharp) edges, and the diamond frets have a pearl design on them. It's a very nice guitar, and sounded better than what I thought.

Sound
The sound is very rich, hence the name. This sounds like a guitar used for more of a metal/rock style. But for you vintage Fender Precision purists out there, I can still get good tones when playing disco, funk, pop, whatever. This bass sounds.... angry! I love to play songs that focus on the low E because it just rattles the house!

Features
I think the pickup is good. It's stock pickup, but I like it. There's nothing that was "least useful" about this.

Ease of Use
It's pretty easy, it has one volume knob, and one tone knob. It's also easy to use your amp to get any sound in between. This bass does have a bit of a low action, which is easy to fix in like 20 minutes.

Quality
The guitar itself was made fairly well. No scratches, everything was in the right place. Only problem I had was that the volume knob was loose, which was no big deal, fixed that in 5 minutes.

Value
Yes its worth it. It's $300 for cryin' out loud and has really good tone for recording or playing live. This is a standard guitar, not the Bronze Series. HA

Manufacturer Support
Never… read more had to call the company, and don't wanna!

The Wow Factor
Like I said, it looks better in person, and the sound was way better than what I thought and heard from YouTube videos. I did say "Woah!" when I saw it.

Musical Background:
Been playing a while... I record and do most of my works at home.

Musical Style:
Death Metal, Black Metal, Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal, Classic Rock, etc..... Everything!
