    Today we take a look at the Legacy B. Is this the BC Rich return to form we have been promised or is it junk? Its a bit of a mixed bag. A future video will attempt to answer that question further!

    My first guitar was an NJ Series B from the mid 1980s. Which I bought in the mod 1980s. I’ve been playing SGs for a long time now and I’ve always felt there was a similarity. I’ve been considering a Legacy B or Legacy Mockingbird but have the same reservations about the price point. I tend to favor sub $1,000 guitars because you get a lot of bang for your buck these days at lower price points. The neck through designs of BC Rich and odd shapes are a step up for a lot of manufacturers and they can’t all do it. I actually remember that ad too 😂. Def not for the modern world.

      I had to send it back for exchange. They didnt have any more greens so i have a different finosh on the way. Local tech said he counted 9 high frets

    I've been wanting a mockingbird for a while. I'm just not ready to plunk down how much they cost now. The Bich is cool too.
    I had a set of Deactivators in a guitar or maybe it was the Dominions. They were cool, but tone chasing lead to swapping pickups. I always wanted to try a Super Distortion bridge with a Super 2 in the enck.

      The price is definitely not for the faint of heart. Especially with the problems this bich had. Stay tuned for the followed up videos!

    I've always been a fan of the SD JB style pickups, I have dozens of guitars with different iterations of them (JB, JBJ, Thrash Factor, JB w/ Triple Shots), but when I got my 50th Anniversary Legacy Bich (If anyone is offended... wahhhhh) it had Dimarzio D'Activators in it and I have since put them in 8 of my guitars... they are fantastic pickups.

    • @TheDistortionPrinciple
      @TheDistortionPrinciple  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Same here i now have dimarzio in 3 guitars. Duper distortion and a super 2, deactivators and an x2n. The deactivators are my favorites so far

    A little less money on glossy poly and uncomfortable shapes and a little more effort on fret leveling and BC Rich might become a respected builder. I'm glad you like it. I would sell it to someone who wants to look badd ass in their band photo.

    Just a quick question: I'm wondering about the strap locks. Did you change the strap buttons on the guitar? If not, what strap locks do they fit?

    • @TheDistortionPrinciple
      @TheDistortionPrinciple  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The strap lock buttons came on the guitar and in the box was a bag with rhe strap locks. So you wouldnt need to change anything. I believe they are grovers. They are the schaller or Dunlop style

    I love that green on her, but she needs a Kahler Quad instead of a damn wraparound. I'd even opt for a TOM and Stop Tail combo over a wraparound.
