These Classic Bich guitars feature their cassic neck through design, Nato body and contrasting wood stringers. In addition to their eye appeal, these instruments are designed for function. The neck is a comfortable 24 5/8” scale, with a 24 jumbo fret Ebony fingerboard and special Rockfield humbucker pickups. Thisvery exceptional Bich guitar is available in Spalted Maple with Ebony stringers. B.C. Rich introduced the 10 string guitar to the world. Revolutionary in that it had the typical 6 string headstock, but it had an additional 4 strings that terminated in reverse at the headstock and went to tuners on the end of the body. Due to its totally huge sound and construction, the B.C. Rich 10-string has been seen on rock stages adorning pros such as Slash and Joe Perry. However until now, these 10-string instruments were only offered as Handcrafted B.C. Rich instruments. Played like a regular 6-string guitar, the basic principal of the 10-string guitar is much like a 12-string. The highest two strings are tuned in unison, the middle two strings are tuned in octaves and the lowest two strings are single and do not have the upper octave strings. By leaving the low two strings single, it allows the player to get a normal distortion tone without confusing and cancelling the signal. When playing full chords it creates a serious wall of sound. The doubled strings are also handy for thickening cleaner passages much like a 12-string. Leave it to B.C. Rich to creatively run the additional 4 strings in the opposite direction starting in the headstock and terminating with the four extra tuners conveniently and strategically mounted in the Bich’s unique cutaway body shape. This feature makes it immediately evident which tuners are used for the double strings. B.C. Rich introduced the 10 string guitar to the world.
