nobody says that a custom made ibanez prestige is worse than a korea bc rich

but in relation of the price the bcr does very well i think

well, anything from korea is basically shit, just look at the tone woods and build quality for instance. ibanez prestige's aren't custom made either though.

But I do have a custom made ibanez here at home, it's a bass guitar, factory custom!

In relation to price, I think BC Rich is just around the same level as any of the well known guitar brands, but they do have freaky designs so thats what get them a bunch of fans across the world!

I agree about the Les Paul neck's feeling slow, they are to fat and bulky. I get in so many arguments with other guitarists who swear Les Pauls and Strat's are the only true way to go. They are both shaped with technology from 50 years ago! I think Jackson Custom's are the way! So smooth, like butter!

<-->




what now?
smooth good or bad?

Both I believe are saying good

except bc rich doesn't offer those qualities, unfortunatly.

Yes, they take a little getting use to. Like I said before, I think the only good quality is the shapes, so fucking metal. Alot of people have complained about the beast and it's shape being hard to play. I actually like it, there should be a warning label on it "Danger!-only for the extreme".

yes after reading again i guess you are right
sry my fault





i think it does :-)




sry what do you mean? could you plz explain it to me once again

it's a matter of personal preference

What I meant was B.C. Rich's are pretty crappy guitars but if you want the shapes you must learn to sacrifice a bit of over all skill on your guitar for it. Hence: it takes a little getting use to.

Ripp3r, where in Europe are you from? If I may ask? Just curious is all

@ def

it's always a matter of personal preference, isn't it?

@ sarnath

thanks for your explanation

and i'm from germany
why'd you ask?

where are you from?
and what's the meaning of your nick
can you tell me plz

I would play an Ironbird, or a warlock, but the beast is just too stupid looking.

__________________

first, i liked the beast most
but it's harder to play
and you need an airfield to land it

the warlock doesn't need that much space
one of the reasons, that i finally bought it
and not another one

a matter of personal preference and a matter of knowing good guitars/materials/tone.

Germany has some great guitar shops, like musik productiv and musicstore koeln!

i bought my one at soundland store...

the prices there are very equal to musik produktiv...

you mean soundcontrol ? yeah i love that place - i spend hours in there. shame they have no jacksons though.



Exactly! - how the fuck is music technology supposed to progress when people refuse to play anything but 40 year old fenders and gibsons and marshall amps from the 80s?

I say adopt the work ethics of the past and embrace visions of the future when making musical instruments.

One EMG active humbucker will cost you anywhere from 80-100$.

And I reitterate what others here have said : You get what you pay for!

thank you
are there great differences between different emg's?




concerning emg's, or concerning guitars in general?
