BC Rich Perfect Ten - 10 String Guitar on FPE-TV

[paulbnoble]

i really appreciate that this was done without a bunch of distortion and whatnot allowing the tonal qualities of the guitar to be highlighted.

[Tordah26]

USE YOUR WRIST, MORON.

[Joskun]

wow, I never dislike a video that bad. Just being honest. Thought he was gonna go ape shit with some weird chords or some cool arpeggio ideas or even some polyrithmic stuff but noouu X(

[zzzhuh]

What a insult to a great guitar...How bout you take my shitty guitar for that thing you don't seem to use it right anyways...

[XxDavidxXPantera]

This guy looks like hes on drugs

[TheRmffb]

that guitar sounded horrible

[madmagician07]

Wow that was shitty as hell. Play the lower fucking strings

[slamchowder124]

you.... suck.

[varokiller]

He can´t put his hand over the strings cuz the strings also come from below

[Sephiroth78941]

Kinda sounds like a sitar.

[zxdread]

I was waiting for a damn cobra to pop up out of a basket!

[Wraith1337]

@zxdread you just made my day, sir :D

[JDK0316191]

The way this guy holds his pick pisses me off.

[stuntman0567666]

Thats a B.C Rich!! Play some fuckin metal bro!!!!!

[Itachi5050]

I don't understand the 10 string guitar, I understand that the 12 string just has the next octave up next to it, but what happens with the 10 string, only 4 of the strings are doubled up ?

[WoWintosh]

@Itachi5050

Yes, plus the G string has the octave string

[DLRisVH]

What's with this generation of players picking from their fucking elbows?

Guess whatever Zakk does, the sheep will follow...

[swiggar97]

thb thats kinda dumb

[shalalaszwee]

Nice use of two strings...

[cnarro890]

i haaaaaaateeeeeeee you sooooooo muuuuuuuch i hope you take some guitar lessons

[yogeesunshine]

EXCELLENT DEMONSTRATION

[bpearsondrummer]

Sounds great if all you play is the Pulp Fiction theme song.

[MatKiller1197]

it sounds like bouzouki (a greek instrument)

[highfivemf]

@MatKiller1197 nah, it sounds like souvlaki having sex with gyros

[MatKiller1197]

@highfivemf hahaha funny :D

[FightingFinke]

I usually go to fpe to hear metal....

[rockadio1992]

Fuck you guys, this is good. Simple, but good. I want one of these now.

[crosscountryman765]

dude holy shit i'll be straight forward you suck

[zzzhuh]

Not trying to be a dick but Your new to guitar, how bout you take my guitar and i'll take yours? Besides you should be playing megadeth on that bad boy, everyone that knows about this guitar knows about dave mustaine playing with one in the early days

[GibsonLesFat]

Leave it to the hindu guy to play hindu riffs.

[Tysnatch]

Two things. One. Is there anyone who can play a 10/12 string guitar without sounding arabic? Two. The last 4 seconds of that (Meshuggah - Rational Gaze) was the best part of the video.

[WoWintosh]

@Tysnatch

One: Jimmy Page.

Two: I agree

[Ultraussie]

Okay, this was a waste of my time, I'd expected 10 strings to be ultra-br00tal.

No, I'm hearing shit.

[Kowalski274]

1:21 That one second of Rational Gaze, is definitely the best part of this video!

[GordoBrown1022]

Is this a joke???

[guitarest452452]

Sounds Egyptian... throw that piece of garbage away

[Kushmart420]

Are you fucking kidding me?! This is fucking terrible!!!!! LOOK AT THE GUITAR, not the camera!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA, DUDE! GIVE UP GUITAR PLAYING!!! If you cant play guitar good and your balding; you know its time for a new hobby!! LMFAO, man at least this video was good for a nice hearty laugh! MY GOD! Try picking with your fingers or wrist, Dont hack the guitar like your beating off!!! I'm suprised you dont have tendonitous already! HAHAHA!

[subongkosh]

10 strings.... new new new ! ~  you play only 3 strings you faggot .

[HandreyAlex]

1:21 sounded good

[punk9999643]

@HandreyAlex That's 'Rational Gaze' by Meshuggah. One HELL of a band.

[LWRCftw]

@HandreyAlex 1:21 was Rational Gaze by Meshuggah.

[gofusiesbass09]

I hate BC Rich so much...

[WoWintosh]

Why does everyone with these 10 string guitars play that same cheesy Indian shit?

[synchroflip123]

@WoWintosh cus thats the only thing u CAN play rofl!!

[TheDemoPeople]

@WoWintosh anything with more than 7 strings, you can only play indian crap, because you now have 10 note cords, and a normal G would look extremly weird to play

[WoWintosh]

@TheDemoPeople

I don't understand what you mean. You play this exactly like you would a 6 string. Also, I said indian SHIT, not indian crap.

[adioskater900]

@WoWintosh because its easy to make them sound like sitars.

[Metalderrik769]

freakin nice bc rich

[CardboardTurtle]

What the fuck is this shit? He's making a fucking B.C. Rich sound like a fucking sitar or some shit.

[CherryConcrete]

Uh... So... There's a guy playing on a wicked 10 string electric guitar meant for metal... And he's... playing some wannabe persian tune on 1 or 2 strings ?! And the ending 'ZOMBIE ROCK CLOTHING' what the hell fpe, this one sucks

[jhump2431]

carpal tunnel is in his future.

[davethehostage]

...is this a joke lmao?

[xXxM0rbidxXx]

erm.. why isn't he playing metal?

[Vaninouw]

what's the 1:21 song name ? **

[vampx07]

@Vaninouw Not 100% but I think it's a Meshuggah song. Has their style sound to it.

[RITUALTORTURE666]

@Vaninouw rational gaze by meshuggah

[funkydoodycool]

Looks a lot like the guitar Dave Mustaine is holding in the Metallica-era photos in his autobiography! Except he only has 6 strings on his, with the 4 lower pegs unstrung.

[budsteppah]

why it doesn't say the full name of the guitar - "BC Rich Perfect 10 Bich"? ...the bitch got lost somewhere or just gone working (lol)

[WoWintosh]

Why do people always play weird sitar shit on 9 and 10 string guitars like this?

[574R5CR34M]

bad guitar playing and shameless self promotion.

you destroyed any chance of this guitar sounding good to the listeners.

[nextripers]

NOOB

[stbreal]

@nextripers DICK

[IIISoulxReaverIII]

Alá aladino D:

[goatgoat]

he uses so few strings, i bet he would sound the same on a 6 string

[rikkytheking]

that dude blows

[ElectricFrederick]

Kinda Sounds Like Trivium in the middle

[YarcaneHaggis]

this guy just looks like he's trying too hard...look at those full arm cheeky tremolos. kind of a sketchy tone too, at least from what I can tell from this video. could've been done better imo.

[superstriker00]

What does this tune to?

[ExcrucioAeternus]

@superstriker00 Same as any guitar, whatever you tune it to.

[kevinlachlander]

Best thing in the vid was the meshuggah outro

[choganskateboarding]

Carpal Tunnel out the ass in a few years with that elbow picking!

[Rg1527]

Learn to play guitar dude....

[CrumBhosale]

wait what the hell is this and how is it tuned?!

[Lordwarship]

which song is it the 2est riff , dude at last someone can play guitar good ;)!

[zzzhuh]

You have a sick guitar mate! but unfortunately you could of done alot more than just play two things over, and over, and over again! you should of played some megadeth (since half to people here know about this guitar from dave) or played more of something and what about a review?

[metalorgienorway]

I read the words "BC Rich 10 string guitar", and expected to hear something awesome. Instead I get... this?

[SillyHatVideos]

I think that sounds pretty awesome.  I'm sure they coulda got someone a bit better to play, but still sounds cool

[unitedbmx5]

Sounds like a mandolin

[KickYourAssTomorrow]

the guitar is just so damn sexy

[nirson123]

nice gambus!



[JaeTizzle]

Sounds kinda like a sitar

[Goku313]

how can someone play such shit on a perfect guitar like that?!?!?! why?!?!

[sweetgyy]

cool

[tejastiger61]

Wha..... the Hell ..?

[TheMetallkylling]

10 strings? A bit excessive wouldn't you say?

[varulv234]

@TheMetallkylling No.

[Drumhead1993]

omg this guitar sounds like shit ... ^.^ bc rich sucks realy ^^

[jarviseatsbrains]

@Drumhead1993 not really ive had a jackson and played many diff ibanez's and i still keep coming back to the bc rich's

[wolfeman85]

lmfao why did they choose that guy to demo their guitar...?

[ryankuisti]

that guy cant play worth a shit. he holds his pick likea retard

[kuyuletul]

what's the song? or is it just an improv? kewl song

[mick00guitarplayer]

where is the distortion?

[TheSugarFreedom]

fucking kewl intro...

[ABigMuffin]

bc rich just like failed... come on who on earth would use this guitar for metal??

[pyrorc]

@ABigMuffin i would

[imthbst]

sounds kinda like a mandolin :P

[hydralisk3313]

sweeping on this must be hard huh freaken 10 strings...

[elliott0]

this guy makes this guitar look really uncomfortable

[climenuts]

oh god this guy sucks.

[pk4t6]

the way this guy is picking using his elbow instead of his wrist... kinda disturbs me.. looks like hes just jacking off..

[Yggdrasil44]

What's worse....This guy totally shitting the bed with his playing in whats essentially a BC Rich commercial, or the fact they still used it?

[DroXDarkFire]

well probably some fender owners* commenting on this video and other bcrich guitar videos saying brand sucks well u can play ur fairytale basic blues songs with that little piece of crap us metal players sticking by dean and bc rich,so go and hug a tree

[cmanisck]

@DroXDarkFire your fucking genre woudlnt exist without fender or blues so shut your fucking trap moron

[DroXDarkFire]

@cmanisck im not shutting my "trap" and i dont give a cows shit about blues and fender.nor u.period. and my "fucking" genre is more complicated than blues btw.techs licks everything,learn some history puppy

[jasonguzman]

@DroXDarkFire Your an idiot. Blues guitar is the base of ecery single genre of music today. The only the thing its not based on is fucking classical music. I love metal, and the fact that your such an idiot that you would say that metal is more complicated then blues? Your FUCKING STUPID! Who cares how complicated it is. Listen to an extremely fast sweep picking riff. Then listen to slow blues solo.

[dannyhood66]

WHY?

[ACEVMNT]

he looked like he was holding in a fart when he was l looking at the camera

[evanlad666]

it's sounds the same in his playing XD

[Elnachoz8]

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[TheGreatKnifeMaster]

i dont like it

[R0BB091]

Kinda wish they chose a better guitarist for that. Most people stop tremelo picking using their whole forearm after a few months, and it was quite sloppy in general.

If I ever come back to this I'm guessing this comment will have a lot of thumbs down :P

[VictoryCough]

@R0BB091 no shit right?

[JUMBOpin]

@R0BB091 i taught myself...i have never picked from my fucking elbow myself...hello rigid~!!!!!!!!!! get a lesson

[LosBerkos]

@R0BB091 28 up instead, hehe. Yeah, seriously who can even bring themselves to picking like that even if they wanted to?

[R0BB091]

@LosBerkos Haha, yeahh I wasn't expecting any thumbs up, nevermind 28 :S lol

[BrutalEpicMetal]

@R0BB091 Haha, man you were wrong, you got the most thumbs up. Lmao.

[SwampKing04]

@R0BB091 alternate picking a 10 or 12 string guitar is like strumming little chords.  that is why his whole arm is moving

[varulv234]

@SwampKing04 I can do that using only my wrist. Play some Black Metal, it's easy.

[CrumBhosale]

@R0BB091 what if because of the string arrangement? i never seen this set up looks like he might be hit open high string too?

[irvan36mm]

@R0BB091 I've been playing guitar since way before Youtube & the internet. I must say that I think the is the way I see most guitarists pick @ Guitar Center. Truly sad!!!!

Glad I don't play like this! LOL

[powerfarttt]

@R0BB091 pussy......just want attention 

[R0BB091]

@powerfarttt I do? That's news to me...

[SkitzThaKlown]

@R0BB091 ..you were wrong xD

[xxPSYCHOSLUTxx]

@R0BB091 i actually cant use only my wrist so i end up using my whole forearm.........ive been playin 3 years, and i can do it faster then most guitarist i jam wit and some use their wrists

[InDarkDominion]

BC Rich = Not Metal. What?

[SiantDread]

I think used in the right hands, this would be a badass guitar for technical death metal

[toptreeman]

errrrrr

[icenhour76]

cool man could get some awesome middle eastern metal tones out of that

[crazymanofhell777]

haha

[crunkjuice69x]

ISNT THAST A 6 STRING? =.=

[catstudent1]

yes but the last four strings have a smaller octave string like a 12 string guitar making it a 10 string

[theresentfuldead]

@crunkjuice69x no, cos if you look at the top of the head stock, you can see four extra strings :)

[42foundation42]

looks sweet but its the most pointless guitar ive ever seen.its a 10 string with active pickups. WTF? haha the pickups are meant for metal, and i doubt hes goona play metal ona 10 string.

[42foundation42]

My bad it doesnt have active pickups.

[CHICKMAGNET66666]

dave mustaine played one of these back in the day

[Barnabus007]

yeah dude...but as far as I know he only used it as a 6 string....not saying I'm 1000% positive tho, but i think

[neronium64]

wat is that song starting from 1:12

[Pannemat]

Something for SOAD?

[samental660]

Arabic Death Metal

[Pitchredbrigade]

yo metal fucknoobs Those guitars arnt ment for metal. So go away

[TheCompulsionToKill]

at least someone knows that.  jeez the tards

[42foundation42]

its not meant for metal? Its a fucking bc rich, with a wild metal style body, and metal pickups.

[jamesstone123]

doesnt do it justice... they are actually really great guitars and add a lot of "arse" to your sound. Adding arse with no overdrive is a retarded idea - all he's doing is demonstrating what Harmonising is.

[lectwar]

arse with no overdrive...i laughed

[SuperHeroJustin]

i think distortion should always be used when playing a bc rich... motherfucker

[HardyzSwanton]

His picking hand is almost scary..

[BriRen666]

looks almost gimpy dunnit? :P

guitar sounds lik shit imo

[pr0llyn0t]

I think you mean IS scary.

[Thermon10]

Wow the body shape looks like a Dave Mustaine's guitar from back in the early 80's.

[SuperHeroJustin]

thats because it is the guitar he used back in the 80's

[Thermon10]

I know. I was just stating the obvious more or less.

[TheMetallkylling]

looks like a cool guitar, but i don't think its necessary.

[nativenight]

shoulda kicked on some distortion... :)

[scheisskind69]

HAHAHAHAHA

[maxympol]

He play just at ONE string.

[monsterr101]

i hated every second of this video

[reikofact]

what is the tunning of that?

[IIISoulxReaverIII]

10 string?

[TheDancingSaxophone]

10 strings are almost like 12 strings, but they don't have the extra string on the high E and B strings. I think.

[TheDancingSaxophone]

@lambo525 As delightfully informative as that post was, if you would inform me as to where I 'failed' I would pay your comment mind. If you would have said 'it's actually the low E and A strings, not the high E and B' I would have said 'okay, cool. thanks.'

[lambo525]

@TheDancingSaxophone Please forgive....

Low E and A....

[TheDancingSaxophone]

@lambo525 No worries, man. Sorry for being kinda harsh. I've had a bit of a stressful week and didn't mean to take it out on someone like that.

[lambo525]

It's all good. I am usually the one giving shit to stupid 'commenters' as well...

It's funny sometimes to see what people will say...

[TheDancingSaxophone]

Ha yeah. Sometimes people can be very ignorant just because they're behind the protective wall of a computer screen. I mean, I challenge you to find a video of a guitarist that doesn't include people debating who is the best on the comments board. lol

[999samsa999]

@TheDancingSaxophone wrong :D

sorry but they only have 2 strings in the position of high e , b, g and d.

A and low E are only 1 string :D

[TheDancingSaxophone]

lol that mistake was corrected last week. I knew it was either the lowest two or upper two that didn't have the extra string, I just wasn't sure.

[davethecandyman]

it is not a 10 string, slash plays this guitar(or at least he has it

[stewie9793]

clearly this is a 10 string

[smoniack]

slash plas a Gibson Les Paul!!

He play Mockingbirds, I'm fairly certain...
