Theres plenty. You just need to find out what size the heel of the neck is and the scale and find a body that would fit on ebay.

I'd say just buy a new guitar or save up for one or you can be like Guy from suffocation and put a fender neck on a b.c.rich.

well!.. I'd imagine it would be pretty damn hard to put a different neck on a guitar that is NECK THRU!
awesome, he has a kahler!

correct me if im wrong, but from my understanding, the "R" on the headstock means its custom. if you see all the regular ones (NJ, Platinum Pro, Platinum, Bronze) they only have the bc rich on the headstock and wutever word defining what model they r. like on mine, it says BC Rich and underneath it it says Nj series. If you look at terrance's guitar (suffocation) he has the "R" on his too

New ones with the R on it are custom. Older non-custom ones have the R on it. I'm not sure when they switched away from the R, but alls I know the original ones did indeed have the R on it.

The R designates it as a custom. When BC Rich went to the Script logo the R on the customs became an option. It also depends on the headstock as the R will not fit on a couple of the 6 in line headstocks IIRC. You are right though the R means custom. |

BLS has the best, and cheapest, ideal. Have it dowel roded and redrilled. Use some epoxy to stregthen the wood around those holes too so it doesn't happen again. |
