    This is a quality instrument. Action was a little high out of the box, but I just lowered the Floyd rose with a screwdriver and not it's perfect. Sounds and plays like a dream, looks like a dragon, feels like a lover. I'll keep this till the end.

    This guitar is simply amazing! The new BC Rick owners definitely have put a huge emphasis on quality, to try and bounce back from the previous regime's gaffes. This is by far one of my best playing guitars, on par or above my E-II's and Ibanez Prestige, absolutely fantastic. The Grover locking tuners in combo with the double locking Floyd make string changes a complete breeze. It also comes stock with a big brass block, and coated noiseless springs!

    Wish it was set up better. And for how much it costs should not have had flaws.

    Super pleased with this guitar. The birds eye maple top looks awesome and the abalone trim and guitar neck inlays really make it pop. The neck is slim and fast, smooth to the touch. All the components and hardware are high quality. The only thing I would suggest B.C Rich to do is add an owners manual and hardware diagram with the extra parts that come with guitar.
