B.C. Rich Bich Six Transparent Red 1984 w/Hard Shell Case

Vintage B.C. Rich Bich Six in Transparent Red finish made in 1984 with Hard Shell Case. This guitar features a solid quilted maple body, 3-piece maple neck-thru and rosewood fingerboard with a rosewood overlay headstock with mother of pearl "R" logo. Equipped with a DiMarzio PAF in the neck position and a DiMarzio Super 2 in the bridge position. Controlled by a Neal Moser Circuit with master volume, master tone, neck volume, preamp 1 gain, preamp 2 gain, and 6-position Vari-Tone pots with a 3-way pickup toggle, preamp 1 on/off switch, preamp 2 on/off switch, two 2-way coil tap mini toggles and one 2-way mini toggle phase switch. The 24 5/8" scale length neck has mother of pearl cloud inlays and white side markers with 24 medium jumbo frets on a 12" radius with a medium C profile. The hardware is comprised of chrome Schaller sealed die-cast tuning machines with cloche heads, a synthetic nut, a B.C. Rich Quadmatic bridge and aluminum top hat knobs.

This guitar is in overall very good condition. There appears to be a neck repair of some kind as the transition from the headstock to the neck is opaque red instead of transparent like the rest of the finish. There are light surface marks throughout the guitar. There are small dings and dents around the edges and corners. The back of the body has some belt rash and small dings. (See Pics)

Guitar is freshly setup and restrung with 10-46 strings. Includes B.C. Rich Hard Shell Case.
