  5. [quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='47251' date='Aug 18 2007, 11:37 PM']Hi Lorne, I recall you from the Ugly forum, you should visit there again too.[/quote] Have I missed some B.C.Rich news? I do try and check as many forums as I'm a member of,but I'm extremely busy
  6. Damnit-that was cheap-congrats mate-if it had been the headless version I would have sold one of my kids
  7. Not digging it mate,it looks like the bastard lovechild of a Fender Jazz and a Gibson hunderbird-sorry
  8. [quote name='Scoop' post='44673' date='Aug 13 2007, 02:46 AM']The only 10 string manufacturers that I know of, although there are bound to be others, are Godlyke & Dean. From what I can gather Godlyke are a USA brandname for the Japanese company which makes Bacchus handmade guitars Scoop[/quote] I know the owner of Godlyke guitars in America-he is mainly a seller of vintage pedals,the basses are just another branch of his company

    five-string.co.uk-I hate you LOL,Sei Original basses are probably one of the few basses other than B.C.Rich that I'd love to own Great bass mate-congrats
  10. [quote name='ARGH' post='43997' date='Aug 10 2007, 09:27 PM']I feel its a little evil to have Bagpuss prop up such a weight! [/quote] As this guy was one of the previous users of this bass SOD Bagpuss BTW,my friend owns this 1 of only 7 ever made
  11. [quote name='BigRedX' post='44023' date='Aug 10 2007, 10:39 PM']Lorne - what's the scale length on BCR 8-stingers? They look shorter that than the others. - 30"?[/quote] All Bich basses were 30.5" scale length,as per Neal Moser's design-however there were approx 4x 34" scale 4 string versions made-Neal has one of them
  12. I've got 2 1985 USA B.C.Rich Bich 8 string Supreme (Far left) 1979 USA B.C.Rich Bich 8 string (on the right) Why do you think they only have 4 strings on them?-because the 8 string sound is novel only for the first few days and then sounds crap-also the strings are bloody expensive-you'd get the same result with a good Octave pedal such as a Boss unit I also sold a 1960's Hagstrom 8 string last year
  13. [quote name='Old Horse Murphy' post='42952' date='Aug 8 2007, 04:32 PM']Jeez I obviously hang around with the wrong people..........GIVEN a bass that Phil Lynott used? He's one of my biggest heroes. You wait til I see my mates next. Tight gits.....[/quote] I didn't know the guy from Adam,he lives in South Africa,but had left the bass in his parents attic for 24 years!!! I had to do a 500 mile round trip to Northants to get it
  14. [quote name='Shockwave' post='43556' date='Aug 9 2007, 11:40 PM']Yeah Razz still wont sell me that Ironbird [/quote] You wouldn't want it-people have written their names on it-2 guys named Dave and some others LOL
  15. [quote name='MB1' post='42927' date='Aug 8 2007, 03:38 PM']MB1. I was wondering who was buying these BC Rich basses(I remember them ,but they always seemed a little too odd to me,in the way a musicman bongo does) now i know.....,must admit ,i didnt know Mr Phil Lynott used one.The one BC Rich bass i do remember, which surely must be a famous one, must be the red one Suzi Quatro used to have(black leather jumpsuit, on top of the pops with a red BC Rich bass ,suprised i remembered the bass actually!) .You havent got that one have ya?. Random Bloke indeed......cheeky! All the best! MB1.[/quote] Which red B.C.Rich bass? she had a few,if it is the Red Bich she had,the Suzi STILL owns it and a red Eagle I didn't buy all my basses,The '79 Bich I just got back,I swapped for the Yamaha ,and the Mockingbird that Phil used-I was GIVEN A friend of mine owns the Ironbird bass used in the Megadeth "Wake up dead" video,2 of Rick Derringer's Stealths and a custom Snake guitar that used to be George Lynch's

  19. Ha ha ha-a long time no see,had a lot to do,a lot of searching for the forum too Ok,some of you will know me from the old forum,my name is Lorne from Plymouth,Devon-I've been playing B.C.Rich basses for over 20 years now Since the last forum,I have managed to dig a Koi pond,get back a 1979 Bich 8 string that I sold in 1992-lost my Yamaha John Myung in the process,but worth it I still work on the Unofficial B.C.Rich serial number archive,I am also a Admin on the BC Rich Players forum Oh and we had a new baby boy 2 months ago Nice to be back-now upset me and show me beautiful Sei Original basses-the only thing I've considdered as Better than a handmade BCR
  20. [quote name='EdwardHimself' post='42165' date='Aug 6 2007, 08:44 PM']haha seen those pics on UG, anyway that's so cool that you actually have that bass![/quote] Thanks-I'm so proud of owning all of these basses,but especially the Phil Lynott Mockingbird,so you will see me bragging everywhere-sorry
  21. Thanks guys-The Yamaha was the MK I RBX,I certainly wouldn't buy a MK II-don't like 'em Ok-I should name the basses-from left to right 1985 USA Bich 8 string Supreme (1 of approx 20 ever made) 1980's Import Ironbird N.J.Series 1996 USA Innovator 2003 USA Eagle (NAMM 2004 Item) 1978 USA Mockingbird 1979 USA Bich 8 string Here is some random bloke using MY B.C.Rich Mockingbird And here is the video it was in [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDxjcZ71ZyI"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDxjcZ71ZyI[/url]
  22. So,a possibility arose for me to get back one of my basses I sold 15 years ago,My BCR Eagle was a very firm favorite to be heading out of the door,but as the owner was a 5 string player,he decided to take my Yamaha John Myung instead (I'm REALLY missing it already ) The Bass I got back is one of the 2 1979 Bich 8 strings I used to own,it has slight issues with it's electrics,not bassy enough,but Both pre-amps work and the Varitone kinda works,I'm hoping it's just dirt,It worked a bit better once I used servicsol on it,but if needs be it'll eventually get new pick ups and a new Varitone Anyway,let me re-introduce you to "Barbara" my old 1979 Koa and Flame Maple Bich 8 string bass Now to get some more money together and get another Yamaha John Myung
  23. Damn-I thought this was going to be a B.C.Rich post-Nice Statii BTW
