I need an opinion.  I'm looking into a new guitar, and I think I want a BC Rich...I've been looking at one of there Bronze Warlock models and I can't stop drooling over it!

If anyone has played one, owned one, even admired one, I want to know what you think of them.  Is it worth it, or should I stay with my Yamaha?

 I played a B.C Rich Warlock NJ series for many years and I absolutely loved it, it is still my favorite guitar of all time, but if I was still playing, I would most certainly own a B.C. Rich Beast by now.

 Here I am with my Warlock and my brother is on the right, he always played the Ibanez Iceman and really liked it, you can't really tell from this picture but my brothers hair is nearly to his ass, we have both since shaved our heads. (Well I leave my hair about 3/8" long, he leaves his about 1/8" or less these days.)

Hell, that settles it!  I'll take one opinion. ;D  Thanks Paz!

One question, though...How could you stand being in a band with your brother?  Me and mine...Can't stand the sight of each other!  He also has no musical talent what-so-ever... ::)

I played in the same group with my younger brother for 12 years. We always had a great rapport on stage & brought out the best in each other. He was the best darned bass player I ever played with, or knew for that matter. ;)

A friend of mine bought his 13yo son a Warlock last year.  Quite a good guitar, so I found out, a bit on the heavy side, but that's nothing unusual.  This particular one had an extraordinarily good neck also.  Gotta try several of them back to back:  I went over to our local Guitar Center back then, the ones hanging on the rack didn't quite measure up to my friend's neck-wise, but I suppose some adjustment would do it.  Still OK tho.

The greatest rock band in history have the lead guitarists that are brothers. They are Angus Young and Malcom Young of AC/DC

P.S Angus has a HUGELY VERY nice guitar can someone please tell me what it is?


I believe its either a Epiphone G400 or a Gibson SG...Yes Malcom and Angus are brothers, I know.  But I hate my brother. ;D

 My brother is like my best friend other than my fiance', and he can play almost any song you can name off, I'm not sure how much he plays anymore, I only talk to him maybe once a month.

My brother IS my best friend. It wasn't always that way, especially when we were younger. I think playing in the group together helped us appreciate & respect each other.

I doupt we (my brother and I) will ever be "friends."  Already, at the tendor ages of 15 and 16, we have a deep underlining hatred for each other.  You could say I hate him with burning passion that fills my soul when even his name is breathed, a passion that burns hotter than Hell itself. :)

I may have exacerbated that just a hair... ::)

You definetly don't want to be my enemy. ;D  

You could buy one cheap, mind you cheap for a Gibson SG at http://www.music123.com

The Epiphone version is only (yeah I say "only") $360.  Or you could go for the gusto and get the Gibson one for $600.  Or get the Angus Young Signiture SG Special for I think $1,300. :)
