Chuck's Stealth
I found out today that for 2008 BC Rich are releasing a Chuck Schuldiner tribute stealth guitar. Has anyone else heard about this and does anyone know how much its going to cost?
Here is the full catalogue:

Not really... what's in it for them? They're not going to make much off a death metal guitarist's signature guitar...

Whoah, the 2008 lineup of B.C. Rich actually seems pretty cool. It seems they have been stepping up the quality. They brought back the ironbird too. But it looks like a low end model.

Yup. I actually got one of my two death shirts from a friend who bought it at hot topic. I don't give a shit though. I like Death.

They should have had more Kahler guitars. OR at least make it an option.
Some nice guitars tho. I'd by the Stealth.
I also have a question why didn't they add like a new Bich or one with a tremelo system or an Ironbird with a tremelo or more paint options!!!!! Christ if they had a lot of options on their guitars you know how many people would buy from them. Provided that they stopped making cheap lower case stuff

He has been on the list of notable users on the bc rich website for a while, and plus he was endorsed by them in the '80s.

the Stealth was only available through the custom shop up until now.
I would want to buy one of those especially since they will be priced lower than if from the custom shop but a part of me feels like the guitar was meant for Chuck and only Chuck.. and I couldn't do it justice playing it.

anyone know how much this will be? i dont think itll be massively expensive because theres only 1 pickup and no whammy bar. but then, its chucks signature. im gonna get 1 if the price isnt insanely blown up just because its a signature.

It'll probably end up costing like 800 gbp in your lands, at least most gear that comes out here ends up with the same digits on the price tag... but in Euros, so you end up paying a good 45% more. 
Get Foxit pdf reader, it's way faster than any adobe pdf reader version. Either way though, this file is huge and is taking a while to load lol.
This guitar looks cool, I just hope Chuck's family is getting some sort of revenue for this. What I want to see though... is a fucking Ironbird reissue!

Yeah they bring the Ironbird back but in a cheap bare bones 200 doller model and no high end one what's with that?

guy i know emailed them regarding chucks fam
this was their reply
Mason,
I am a firm believer of doing the right thing. Of course we could
have put out a black Stealth, but I was very adamant about including the
family from the very beginning and doing a Chuck tribute model. They have
been very supportive and we are thrilled to be working with them. So you can
rest assured they are involved and will benefit greatly from this
collaboration. Thank you for your email.
Best regards,

The reason i bought a Jackson Warrior is because it looked so much like Stealth, and it was considerably cheaper.
Its kinda disappointing hearing that theyre making it now that i spent all my cash on the Jackson.
Still, im glad. Chuck was the greatest.
