Screamin Leaming and Neal Moser are two of the best custom shop guys BCR ever had. leaming is a custom finish guy who gets contracted, and it's neal who is the master builder actually employed by BCR. moser is the guy behind the circuit used in all those oldschool guitars with all the toggle switches, as well as the Beast with Brian Hoffman. Neal still does a lot of replacement or upgrade parts sales like the circuit i mentioned, as well as some commissioned builds. I don't know what the relationship is between Moser and BCR now, but neal is still very active within the BCR groups on facebook, he's the guy to get the old top hat knobs from.
A few years' ago, Chicago Music Exchange had a one-off double-neck eight and four string bass that was modeled after the Derek Smalls double-neck bass from the Spinal Tap film and it went for eight grand and change.
Dude, thanks a lot for this vid, you know my love for BC rich guitars, got 4 of them, obviously they are not this pricey, but they are awesome guitars even for a fraction of that money.
You’re welcome dude! Thanks for watching it! I’ve been on the hunt recently for a BC Rich but of course I’m out of cash but I can still dream can’t I? 😂🤘🎸🤘
Randy Bachman was a member of the 70's rock group "Bachman-Turner Overdrive, commonly refered to as BTO. They had several hit songs, one of the most popular being "Takin' care of business". Check out their song called "Blue Moanin" on UA-cam. I think all of these are overpriced. The only one that seems to be close in value to it's asking price is number 3, the pink pre 2000's model, because of it's uniqueness. 🤘Thrash on!🤘
I’m assuming the track “Takin’ Care of Business” is the chorus that’s playing over & over again in my head right now 😂😂 It would be interesting to see what that guitar sells for that’s signed by Randy. It’s definitely not worth anywhere near the asking price! I really like number 4, such a gorgeous top on it! Thanks for the info dude! 🤘🎸🤘
Randy is as well a founding member of The Guess Who, "American Woman". His son is Tal Bachman, one hit wonder from the late 90's- 2000's "She so High".
I wouldn't drop that kind of coin on any guitar even if it was a one off custom built to my own specs w/ rare exotic (possibly even illegal) materials. I figure these are "investments" (wall hangers at best) for collectors, whereas I am more of a "buy it to play it" type, w/ a side of "buy it to mod it" if it's affordable enough to risk total mod failure. BTW: The cloud inlays are just BCR's "branding" thing on certain models (same w/ the diamonds on some), kinda like the sharktooth inlays on Jacksons or the birds on PRS units.
Agree dude! These aren’t prices that I’d pay for these guitars. I like to buy to play & mod if I’m not happy with them! Obviously if I won lotto id sink some stupid amount of money on a guitar if I really wanted it, but id definitely play it! Thanks for the info on the cloud inlays man, I’m only really familiar with Kerry King etc type BC Rich’s from videos etc 🤘🎸🤘
I do believe that Screaming Leaming is the artist that put the eagle on the guitar. I've seen his name on other BC Rich guitars with airbrushed artwork.
Those guitars are worth about 2 to 3 grand max, in my opinion. That's coming from a big BC Rich fan that's owned 3 Warlocks. Niche market items are worth what someone is willing to pay at the end of the day.
I most honestly say that I am not up to date with what is going on with BC Rich these days. Remember them being very popular like 20 years ago. Some pretty cool guitars...but as always way to expensive. 🤘🎸🤘
Yeah I haven’t kept up with them either Jimi! Used to like watching Kerry King & Pat O’Brien jam on theirs but don’t really see anyone playing them these days! Thanks for checking out the video, appreciate it dude 🤘🎸🤘
Thanks for watching! Please consider Subscribing to my channel, liking the videos & leaving comments to start a conversation! 🤘🎸🤘

Wow thanks for the info dude! Really appreciate it! Very helpful! 🤘🎸🤘
The name on the eagle guitar was Neal Moser, he designed & built alot of those iconic guitar shapes 👍.
Ahh ok! Thanks for the info dude! Appreciate it! Did he build guitars just for BC Rich or other companies as well? 🤘🎸🤘
@@GuitarHoarder He started with B.C. Rich then started his own company which lasted a few years called Moser guitars.
@@HoracioAmiritoDiaz thanks for the info dude! I’ll check out Moser guitars & see what I can find 🤘
I had to laugh when I heard him. That's like saying on a Gibson..."Some guy named Les Paul." 😂
I always liked the acrylic Warlocks.
Same man! They look sic! 🤘🎸🤘

Now that sounds like a reasonable price compared to what some of these sellers are asking for the ones in this video! 🤘🎸🤘

Had no idea BC Rich guitars went for this sort of coin! Big nope for me on all 5 of em, but great video as usual man - enjoyed it!
Thanks for the kind words Phil! I had no idea either they could pull this sort of price! I really like # 4 but not the price 😂😂🤘🎸🤘
I do believe that Screaming Leaming is the artist that put the eagle on the guitar. I've seen his name on other BC Rich guitars with airbrushed artwork.
He does some awesome work! Do you know there’s been work done on any other guitar companies axes? 🤘🎸🤘
I've only seen his work on BC Rich guitars @@GuitarHoarder
@@pkeaton1 ok cool thanks man 🤘

Don’t you mean 15 thousand dollar a doos?
"FOR SOMEONE WHO CLAIMS TO KNOW ABOUT GUITAR'S YOU SURE DON'T KNOW YOUR MUSICIAN'S"!!!!!!
Sorry you feel that way. Which musician are you referring to?
BC Rich are cool guitars but not that cool.
Agree Sam! The pricings pretty high! 🤘🎸🤘
