Loaded and ready to fire!

The B.C. Rich ASM Pro is an electric guitar with EMG pickups, a Floyd Rose Original tremolo and neck-through construction. The ASM Pro is one serious professional level guitar! Other great features include Grover tuners and an ebony fretboard. Neck-Through Construction B.C. Rich is known as one of the pioneers in neck through construction. They use it on many of their guitars, because it provides the best possible sustain, resonance, comfort and access to higher frets. Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high-end guitars. This construction starts with a long piece (or pieces) of premium North American maple. That piece runs from the tip of the headstock to the strap button on the opposite end of the guitar. This means that the headstock, fingerboard, pickups and bridge all are mounted to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear. The neck-through construction also allows more of the body and neck to be cut away at the neck joint, which provides comfort no bolt-on or set-neck could offer. You will find the neck through feature on all top of the line B.C. Rich models. EMG-81 (bridge position) The EMG-81 is a high output pickup designed especially for the lead guitarist. The 81 is at its best for high volume overdrive and amps with a master volume. Whether you're playing power rock and roll, or overdriving your amp, there's a razor sharp attack, and incredible sustain for brilliant soloing. If you're looking for exceptional qualities in a rock pickup, the EMG-81 is the one. EMG-85 (neck position) Although the EMG-85 has more measurable output than the 81, its frequency response and string interface are different. The 85 uses two Alnico magnet loaded coils with a wide aperture to maintain a beefy low end and a fatter top end. Because of a more natural tone, it works great as a rhythm and blues pickup because it has loads of output but isn't muddy. The Assassin was introduced in 1986. It was a double cutaway that was a departure for the odd shaped models that B.C. Rich was known for up until that time. In 1986, there were other double cutaways that B.C. Rich began making with various headstocks, pickup configurations, controls and finishes. The ASM model was one of these double cutaways but was introduced much later. There was an ASM 1 and ASM 2, with slightly different shapes and point shapes, but the more pointed and sleek model eventually settled in as the standard ASM shape. The Outlaw originally had holes drilled in the upper bout, but later models were more traditional looking, they were mostly bolt on necks like most of the double cutaway B.C. Rich guitars.

  • Top Notch!!!!

    As reviewed by DC on 9/17/2010

    I had to custom order my ASM Pro because I wanted the Pearl White for which they do not carry. This guitar totally shreds. I have been in and out of bands over the past 22 years and have used many guitars. I still own my first custom Jackson San Dimas as it is the bomb. Once I received this guitar, I have not been able to put it down. The Jackson has taken a back seat to this guitar. I have performed on a few occassions since getting this guitar two months ago and it holds up to all my expectations. After setting up the guitar, it has very low action, no buzz! Great harmonics and sustainment and weight is in the middle of light to heavey.

  • ABSOLUTELY INSANE!

    As reviewed by Adam on 9/13/2010

    ok so i've been looking for a new guitar for a long time and this guitar came up one day as i was searching. it was weird because i never really thought about bc rich because i really didn't want that strangely of a shaped guitar. plus, the price REALLY threw me off at first because i couldn't even believe that a guitar could have every single feature that i wanted at such a mind blowing low price. the guitar is absolutely the most amazing thing ever. its really chunky and it feels amazing and its just one of those guitars thats just a pleasure to play. plus, the floyd rose just owns, period. and now that i think about it, EVERY feature just owns period. if you buy this guitar, you will NOT be disappointed. one other thing by the way, i got the black cherry burst version and it looks amazing, like the pictures on the internet are crap, like in real life it just is so cool its all stripy and metal looking. BUY THIS GUITAR!
