BC Rich Virgin History
Does anyone know when BC Rich first designed the Virgin? Was it pre or post Slipknot-Warlock era?

Nevermind, I just found out from google:
"Class Axe
In 1987 Rico entered into a marketing agreement with a company from New Jersey called Class Axe which allowed them to market and distribute the Rave, Platinum and NJ Series guitars.
The 1987 B.C. Rich catalog produced by Class Axe included the Platinum Ironbird, Bich, Warlock and Virgin guitars and basses. "

I like the Virgin style guitars. I like the Warlock style too but I can't trust B.C. Rich to make them right any longer. I might have Ran make a nice Warlock for me some day. That would be nice  I don't care if the Warlock style is associated with Dicksnot or not. |

Nope, Dariusz said I should expect it to be ready around the 25th-30th (this month). Ah.. my fingers are itching!

The virgin was originally designed by Neal Moser. It wasn't the Virgin though, he named his prototype the Scythe. His website shows this prototype.

It's safe to say the B.C. Rich Virgin is in truth an old maid

Eh? Kerry King in Metallica?
The reason I'm asking is everyone's gonna' be like "Alex dude, you hate BC Rich1111!!! " And I wanna' educate them on the Virgin shape. 
So was it designed by Neal Moser back in 1976 or something? I think Neal designed the Bich first, did the Virgin come after the Bich? |
