Beautiful, and cheap. Maybe swp out the pickups but awesome guitars for country, alternative psychedelic noise....

Is that a ten string guitar? I'm confused.

Yup. Matt Pike was playing a 9-string with a similar setup for a while. Lower single strings for the chugga-wugga, upper doubled strings for naturally chorused crazy leads. Or something like that.

I have no shame, I use a nice Mockinbird as my synth bass. I installed a Roland GK3B pickup and put picollo strings on it.
I say go for it, especially the 10 stringer.

i have always liked bc rich's...especially those with the big R on the headstock. mockingbirds, eagle and the 10 string bitch are classics. they aren't considered kool by the indy kids...which in turn makes them kool to us that just don't give a fuck.
that said...i've never owned one and prolly never will.

My guitarist [N@MELESS] has a early 80s NJ Warlock thing is killer.

My wife has one of those cheap BCR Warlocks, it's surprising how good it sounds.

mockingbirds are cool as fuck.
as is the seagull.
i think its funny that BC Richs are basically largely overlooked by anyone that isnt in a jam band or a black metal band.
but on the whole, most of their designs are shit. aka the ones that weren't designed way back in the day.

I loved my Warlock bass. I played it for "Phantom of the Opera" in high school.
