That might be the first BC Rich guitar that I like the look of.

Talking of BC Rich's... i really like Robert Marcello's green Gunslinger. I dont know wether its a custom model though as his has a maple board with 24frets and the ones i found online have 22frets..

I'm thinking it's a USA built BC Rich.

Thanks a million for posting this auction! I was a huge Derek Frigo fan when I was a kid and he was in the band Le Mans. The album they did on Shrapnel was one of my favorites. I have "Derek Frigo" saved as one of my favorite ebay searches and check it every few days. Always hoping for one of his old guitars to pop up for sale. Now I'd prefer one of his old strat headstock San Dimas Charvels but this will be much cheaper than one of those would.

I am buying this guitar. I am winning this auction. Period! Thanks again dude.

Edit..... uh just saw an added pickup and added switches done after Derek sold the guitar. Now I have to think about it a little more.

I dont know much about BC Rich's, do they make a USA Gunslinger just like Rob's guitar? same specs?

hell ya Chubtone !!! Rig-talkers helping rig-talkers

I went to Ed Roman's shop in CT years ago to check out his quicksilvers. I ended up loving PRS and thought the BC Rich eagle killed both. Too much $$, but killer guitars.

here's my old BC Rich tele.

Well back when the Rico family owned the company any USA BC Rich was a custom shop BC Rich basically. You could order them however you wanted them. My Mockingbird Archtop Supreme was made to my specs. Took a little over 4 months back in 97. Now I hear they build time on a custom shop model is well over a year.

Ahh ok! Long wait times are a pain in the ass. For a Custom shop Gunslinger like Rob's green one, would that be an expensive order dya think?

KICK ASS GUITARS!

Thats where I got my old HC Moniker, I played Gunslingers for 15+ years. Sound killer and play like butter. It's one of VERY few guitars I like ALMOST as much as my Juggs. well actually the necks on my Juggs are modelled after the Gunslinger.

Yea Rich Customshop guitars are probably just expensive as ESP, Jackson, Etc.... NOT CHEAP at all. Plus the Rico family no longer has them, so.........I dont know, I havent played one that wasnt a Rico.

Nah. Thats a bolt on I think and has simply contols, no figured wood.... I think that would be as quick as they get. Ask Guitar Asylum or Music Zoo.

I had a Gunslinger. It was black with pink and yellow paint splatters. I threw a party and it got stolen. I'm always keeping an eye out for it.
