Anyone love nagel 80s Jackson and bc rich ?

hollywoodrox

Love these , with the welcome resurgence of 80s finishes I would like to see a mid range guitar  with a Nagel finish. This could be achieved at a lower price point by using a decal beneath the clear .

also some Memphis design style geometric patterns  or a mixture of both

Love the old 80's BC Richs...unfortunately it's hard to find a decent one second hand, they're mostly the crappier ones made later on with the spikier headstocks I don't like (the pointy ones you've posted above are the best ones) and you never see the ones with graphics on. I was hooked after seeing Poison's 'Nothin' but a good time' and Tigertailz 'Love Bomb Baby' videos I always thought the ones in 'Living Without You' were BC Rich, but I've just looked and they're not....and I can't make out the logo on the headstock. They're very cool though.

Ah, I’d forgotten about those. They look amazing. Surely it must be easy to have some type of graphics like that and ‘wrap’ a guitar these days?

I really like graphics on a single Humbucker super strat,
I am waiting to lay my hands on one of the new Kramers or similar  and I might end up doing it on the cheap...

@vibetronic - they were Royal guitars made by Kevin Chilcott.

It was actually me that helped hook Tailz up with BC Rich in 1988 - was a friend of the band and also dealing with BC Rich's UK distributor: Livewire distribution, so connecting the two was pretty easy for me.

Still mates with Tailz original singer Steevi, even now.

I love them. The old school Gunslingers have perfect shred necks but seem harder and harder to find.

More of a Jackson man personally

Ah cool, that had me puzzled earlier! I'd always thought those were BC Rich until I looked today. The ones with the holes in were really neat. Love a bit of Tigertailz and Steevi's solo album a few years back now was great!

I’m trying to remember , I’m sure there were some US ones called Roscoe guitars that did similar ones.  CC had some awesome bc gunslingers

Love the Nagel's, I've a few old USA BC Rich's I've been fortunate to pickup over the years, each of them an absolutely incredible guitar, and not just for shredders. My Koa Mock has tone to die for.
