I own a NJ Series Warlock with a set of EMGs in it. 85 on the neck and 81 on the bridge. Before the EMGs the guitar kinda sucked but its definatly good for the money. A downside to the warlock is the neck. Its real heavy so the guitar gets weighed down when you stand up with it. You get use to it though. Penis.

I have a white Platinum Series Warlock w/ EMGS and I love it. Espically the shape, its extremely comfortable and it looks brutal. Plays beautifully also. I woudent recomend getting a bronze series, get and NJ if you can afford it.

My friend bought one of the cheap ones and he said it is the worst thing he has ever played. He said something about it starting to fall apart within 6 months. As for the higher up versions I would conclude they wouldn't fall apart or they would no longer be in business.

actually i've heard stories of platinum/nj (one of the two) with black hardware, bound necks and heads, all the good shit you find in upper class riches, with delaminating necks. it's seems to be a bc rich problem. my guitar did it. but i fixed it up.
i need to take a shit...

A lot of complaints are about the weight. See if you can find an acryllic version. Those are pretty light.

ok all of you morons(yes all of you) if your bc rich dosent have a mother of pearl
"R" logo inlay on the headstock than it is shit! all of the new riches are shit.....period.
they dont stay in tune at all and the parts are of lower quality. riches are great. but only if it is an AMERICIAN NECK THROUGH!!!!!!!!! even those nj neck throughs are crap!
bc rich went to shit now that bernie sr passed away. bernie jr sold it off and it all sucks now. it is a dam shame. id love to kick his ass and make him take the company back again.

I got a B.C. Rich warlock (Bronze), yes I know its shitty, but i made a few changes, I put a new bridge on the damn thing so i have a whammy bar, and I finally got my Seymour SH-6, and it kicks some serious ass.
P.S. My guitar stays in tune just fine.

My platinum is great. I use to have that tune problem but it stopped after I broke the guitar in. The only complaint is the weight because it is alittle heavy but its nothing that effects my playing. My friend has a NJ and it is extremly light.
