@SymbolicNickolaus That was me attempting to play part of sweet home Alabama. Didn't turn out too well. But that was my first video. If you would like to see my most recent videos of me playing, just visit my channel. Just put up a new video yesterday!
Not with that headstock, kiddo, NOT KOREA and NOT 1990s, in the 1990s, the BC Rich were made by CLASS AXE, Bernie Rico had gone into retirement and handed over the company to Class Axe, most notable guitar was the clear plexiglas GLASS AXE, but they let quality go out the window and many endorsees jumped ship, including SLAYER and MegaDeth
That guitar, assuming it has the original neck, is not from the mid-90s. It's a 1983-85 NJ (Nagoya, Japan) Series. It's a bolt-on guitar, though BC Rich also made neck-through versions. I have one just like that. Mine is a 1984 model. I paid about $200 for the guitar in Ebay about 6 months ago because someone stripped it of its original black finish. Expect to pay $250-$300 for one in excellent condition. Early NJs are GREAT guitars!!!
@bandit79jun Yes indeed they are. I actually had this guitar given to me from someone. and when i got it, i had it taken in to get new strings and the annotation set and things like that. and the guitar guy priced it to be around 800 to 900 dollars. But i don't really care, because it sounds great!
@96Bitz You're a very lucky guy indeed! I consider those 80s Mockingbirds to be among the coolest-shaped guitars, not to mention they have a very fast and comfortable neck. Also, they are very lightweight compared to later Mockingbird versions. Enjoy your guitar! Greetings from Puerto Rico!
@96Bitz Not really worth the near $1000 price, since mine's in good shape and listed on eBay for 2 weeks, it didn't sell, at half that price, however, The NJs were really the first import line for BC Rich besides a few 70s with Charvel helping them out, but Negoya is the original locale and hence the name NJ. Funny enough though, Class Axe company was located in Warren, New Jersey!! Their's were NJ made guitars!
@bandit79jun Any 80s guitar should be worth more, mine is going for $350 asking, a 1980s Warlock and yeah, bolt on, but plays great despite that fact, one of the better single locking Floyds I've had the pleasure of
@MetallicBill Mine has a Quadmatic bridge. I agree that any pre-Class Axe BC Rich should be worth more, but early (1983-86) bolt-on NJs with Quad bridge usually go for $250-300 (without case). They are real bargains. Recently, I saw a 1984 Bich go for $275 on Ebay. Yours has tremolo, so I guess that would bring in a premium on the price. Did it come originally with that bridge?
I have one of those clear plexiglass Ice Mockingbirds. Those axes weigh a LOT.
@bandit79jun I still have the black one, lost the red and blue because I did a pawn shop loan and didn't recover the cost in time, I'm in a bad way financially and I would have suspected these guitars to go in that range you mentioned. Mine didn't. People are opposed to tremolos, even if they're quality ones, perhaps something to do with Entry Level players not wanting the hassle
@DaNorthernLight well those are some wise words...i'm not mad you know just... i don't have anything that i could reccord but as soon as i get i'l post some vids :) cheers mate
@DaNorthernLight he said that he bought it for 900$ if i'm not wrong...maybe i am jealous, but more mad on unfairnes of life that i can't convince my parents to at least participate with a share to buy me a guitar even dough i play like 30 times better than him and kno alot more things about any guitar than he does (i don't mean to brag, just making a point) . I have to save a whole year yet, i'm withouth a job (high school)... (sry for bad English)...
awesome guitars getting mine soon, good playing aswell dude don't stop learning and playing i almost did, keep up the good work bro.

Honestly i think that that guitar was a rip off way to expensive and i think the pickups would be regular stock pickups
