Up for sale, a 1985 B.C. Rich Warlock in excellent condition and in perfect working order. This Warlock is in an exceedingly rare higher-tiered model from the Japanese-made NJ (Nagoya, Japan) Series, featuring neck-through construction, DiMarzio humbuckers, a Kahler 2300 tremolo, six-on-a-side headstock with a rosewood veneer, and a gloss Glitter Rock White finish.

Tonewoods include maple neck-through construction with mahogany body wings and a slab rosewood fretboard, ensuring ample sustain and an authoritative sound channelled faithfully through the original DiMarzio humbucker pair. The neck position DiMarzio PAF offers round, tight low end, tailored midrange and sweet trebles. The bridge pickup is a DiMarzio Super Distortion, a higher output humbucker with boosted mids and huge, screaming highs. As the name suggests, the Super Distortion takes gain exceedingly well. This Warlock weighs 7lbs 13oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
