michael-faces Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) Ok, as the description says, if you had to have one of the BC Rich pointy basses, which would it be? Excluding the eagle and the mockingbird, take your pick: [url="http://www.bcrich.com/bass.asp"]bc rich bass models[/url] I'm gonna have to go with the widow, i think if you're gonna go pointy you may as well go all the way (hehe) Edited August 25, 2010 by michael-faces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velvetkevorkian Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) If they made a 5 string Beast I would be all over that (although it looks like they don't do a Beast bass any more, going by that list). None of the other shapes do anything for me. edited to add pic. Edited August 25, 2010 by velvetkevorkian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 The one that comes with a free bandsaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gust0o Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Provisionally, I have a Paolo booked in - but of the list it's the Warlock NJ deluxe. It's had some rave reviews! That said, my sig gives me away! 5-string Beast... Could be a runner; Warbeast, just f***ing no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gust0o Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 The other ones I would have chucked in, but they seem to have also stopped them, would have been the Virgo NT (on much the same grounds as the Warlock NJ) and the Zombie Deluxe, if just for pure bat-sh*t craziness in wood form.

paul h Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 That all hurt my eyes a little but I would go with the Zombie Revenge just for the name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 The current range looks a bit conservative to me. I'll have a vintage Bich 8-string Bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisnameistaken Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) The John Virgo sig looks like the easiest one to sand the edges off into a sensible-looking bass. Edited August 25, 2010 by thisnameistaken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorne Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Do I have to pick just one? Please ignor both the Snakeskin BCRs,they left recently and the Eagle and Ignitor guitars are not mine,although they've lived here long enough I also have 2 basses missing at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorne Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Found a better picture of the Innovator with Wonky beside it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gust0o Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Nice interjection, Red Well, Wonky came home to roost, a little over 12 months after I first spied her - so there's hope for the Innovator, yet At this rate, I'll have spent April's bonus by next month. Some serious GAS about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basshead56 Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 (edited) Usually the T-Bird is as ´Pointy´ as I go, But considering my obsession with the Misfits (and lack of money preventing me from ordering an October or Rand replica bass), I´d go for a Widow or perhaps a Virgo- not the weirdest shaped BC´s, and they have two sets of Split-coils. The only reason I havent sprang for a Warwick Vampyre (rockbass verion) is because there are J type pups in it, and that would not suit my inner Jerry Only!

purpleblob Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I was very tempted by a Mockingbird way back in my youth and still love the shape, so that's me sorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gust0o Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 (edited) Johnston, if you look at Lorne's pictures you'll note a number of Bich basses there. Pretty sure Lorne could point you in the right direction if you were actively seeking one. Edited August 26, 2010 by Gust0o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorne Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 [quote name='Johnston' post='936933' date='Aug 26 2010, 11:05 AM']They don't have the body art though [/quote] The Body arts were G**tar only,no basses in any of the designs,although you could always find an old NJ Bich bass,find a girl with a nice ass,take a picture and then have it copied onto Vinyl and apply it to the bass.Don't use a Vintage USA Bass like mine though,it'll cost ya a bleedin' fortune just for the bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gust0o Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Ah sh*te, I didn't click - from my blurry perspective it simply looked like a sanded Bich! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
