The first thing that came to mind when I saw it was : " Oh my God..." Fabulous restoration work... I myself have been a professional guitar tech and builder for 36 years so I can appreciate great work when I see it...
Good show! B.C. Rich is not a cheap brand. I can't even imagine the circumstances that made this guitar a junker. You brought this back to the dignity it deserves.

i admire the effort you put into restoring these guitars. i like the asmr aspect of it too. im not a fan of cleaning/restoring old, beaten, used guitars just so they can look normal and look like the rest of the guitars youll find on a music store. obviously theyre player guitars, modified to look unique for the audience. these guitars have history, mojo and stories to tell.
Honestly, I think the artwork was original and unique, though the paint job maybe was not perfect. After the restoration, the guitar looks just as any other guitar off the shelf. I think restoring it functionally while preserving the unique artwork would have been more interesting
Love your videos, the guitars are amazing after all your hard work on them. I like buying beaten up guitars and restoring them but you do the best job I’ve seen, nice one👍🏻
You placed the bridge pickup in the neck position and the neck pickup in the bridge position. Not the end of the world, but it could make balancing the pickups' volume very hard.
Thank you for saving the guitar. Before. Overkill on the paintwork, painting the tuners, the temalo and etc🤣 Amateur 80's copy. After, professional preparation, reasembeling, finishing and touches . The white body tastefully sets off by the " Black BC Rich Humbuckers".. ✌️🤘🇦🇺
it is a BC rich guitar, I wouldnt be surprised if the paint job looked like that from the factory and it was just dirty and you sanded it all out but it looks nice in the end aswell
where on earth do you find all these poor desecrated instruments? i AM glad you can fix them..to see some of the treatment they have been thru... amazing work!
You are doing a great job restoring those guitars.. but I have to say some of these 80sy patterns are pretty dman cool. I would like to see a transformation of such a guitar to basically the same design but done properly :)
The design would have been great If done properly and the guitar had a recessed floyd rose. It looks like It was done In a hurry and not with the proper time taken...
A pintura tava detonada mas a guitarra tinha sua personalidade, seu trabalho foi ótimo, mas se fosse minha pediria apenas pra restaurar as ferragens, elétrica e caps e na pintura passar um verniz da um brilho e só
I wouldn't have removed that design for a thousand - it was cool - and very original . Just clean it up , set it up , and go !!!! Now its like all the rest.😢 It was rock and roll !! Now its ....... well ...
Trash to treasure. Gotta say those soldering spots on the pots are flawless. Makes me want to rip into my guitars just to resolder them all! 🤣 Awesome restoration. The frets look amazing!
Hola estimado, bueno estaba linda igual como estaba antes, de todas formas quedó buena también, yo tengo un amigo q tiene una viola de la misma marca la con dos pastillas doble bobina y floy , la tiene del año 89 y la conserva en buen estado al pensar q tiene varias viola a esta la tiene de colección, en fin buen video, mi nombre es Xavier tengo 42 años, saludos desde Argentina,,,,,
I have watched a lot of your videos and I just have to say that I am conflicted. Certainly you do a nice job of restoring the guitars to new or better than new condition--you do great work so don't get me wrong. I just wonder if some of the guitars that you "rescue" aren't better in terms of artistic expression before you fix them? Maybe the mods aren't perfect but many that I have seen are pretty righteous as art. Restoring them to original condition just makes them equal to hundreds or thousands of other instruments. If that is the goal then you could just start with a neglected ordinary guitar and make them play well. Many of the guitars that I have seen were better "before" than "after" in my opinion and I would like to see more personalized guitars. Again, no offense to you and your work or your channel, I just have questions.
Please start showing all switch positions on these rebuilds. I want to hear what the guitar sounds like in more than one position. Thanks and Great Job! Best Regards
So Im curious what do you do with these guitars once you have restored them, are they for sale or do you restore for friends. I d like to buy one if they are up for sale.
Personally would have cleared over the original un original paint followed by a restoration of the hardware with only the clean up that would have been required I.E. getting the paint off the tuners, cleaning the fretboard and making sure it's straight and redoing the electronics to make sure they work. But I would have kept the rusted in look because I don't know where that guitar came from or from how long ago but it's had a life...
as much of a hunk of garbage this guitar was at the beginning, i cant help but think the guy who painted the body had something good in mind course, painting the tuners and such definitely didn't help, but the pattern actually looks rather unique
This guitar had nice artwork. You should have just restored the hardware and preserved the original art. I wonder what you'd do to Eddy Van Halen's guitar?
Yes it looks much better than before that's for sure. However you had a filler, why didn't you fill all the dings and dongs, why did you leave the paint with an orange peel, why didn't you clearcoat it afterwards and where's the stepped wet sanding from 800 to 5000 grit? I mean if you go through the pain of disassembling a guitar, stripping its paint off, doing a good job on the neck might as well do the paintjob correctly too while you're at it even if it's loads of work and the guitar isn't worth it.
The first thing that came to mind when I saw it was : " Oh my God..."
Fabulous restoration work...
I myself have been a professional guitar tech and builder for 36 years so I can appreciate great work when I see it...
Thank you very much.
It is the greatest pleasure to receive compliments from a professional builder.
It will encourage us in the future.
Dude, you have to open your own guitar and bass repair shop, the way you breathe new life into seemingly dead instruments is inspiring
you did some amazing work there i also think you should have redone the original graphics it would have come out awesome thank you for the video
Tastes aside, the restoration made me feel like the guitar was loved again.
You gotta admit, the paint job it had before he restored it was pretty cool looking
Good show! B.C. Rich is not a cheap brand. I can't even imagine the circumstances that made this guitar a junker. You brought this back to the dignity it deserves.
it is a chinese replica
@@badspy100 It's ASM1 I guess.

Great restoration but the original graphics on these guitars look a lot cooler before
Haha, yeah, I always seem to like the 'before' look better.
Nah.. Looks like the paint wizard done spunker doodled all over it: FWOP FWOP FWOP FWOP…
Ugly
Man, you really resurrected that thing! Impressive work on this one especially, sir.
You did your demo justice by switching amps for the clean and dirty sections. Little details but big impact on me nice job! 🔥🔥🔥
At least the headstock was left original. Beautiful work!
It always looks better once you start playing it.
Yep this is my fave restoration you have done so far. It looked beautiful with the clear coat over the wood grain too.
Honestly, I think the artwork was original and unique, though the paint job maybe was not perfect. After the restoration, the guitar looks just as any other guitar off the shelf. I think restoring it functionally while preserving the unique artwork would have been more interesting
Wow great job you brought this guitar back to life. Fantastic job...
Your best video yet top job
Awesome work! But, I have to say that the original graphics look cool also. The music sounded badass!
Love your videos, the guitars are amazing after all your hard work on them. I like buying beaten up guitars and restoring them but you do the best job I’ve seen, nice one👍🏻
Excellent job restoring a B.C. Rich ASM 1 circa 2011-2013.
You placed the bridge pickup in the neck position and the neck pickup in the bridge position. Not the end of the world, but it could make balancing the pickups' volume very hard.
nice job! this is the omanco guitar!!
Great job, I would love this guitar after you finished it.👍🏼

Спасибо за видео. Результат просто шикарный!
You just have a new subscriber, awesome work!!! ❤ cheers from Mexico
お疲れ様でした！
出来上がり工場から出荷直後みたいですごいですな！！
動画魅入ってしまいました！！
PUなんかあの状態からこんなに綺麗にして人見たことないです！
次の動画も楽しみです！！
ありがとうございます！
実は作業中にボディをぶつけて打痕ができてしまったので、次はもっと綺麗に仕上げられる様頑張ります！
Amazing work.
you inspire me to do a better finishing job
where on earth do you find all these poor desecrated instruments? i AM glad you can fix them..to see some of the treatment they have been thru... amazing work!
getting off that old paint is a real PITA..
You are doing a great job restoring those guitars.. but I have to say some of these 80sy patterns are pretty dman cool. I would like to see a transformation of such a guitar to basically the same design but done properly :)
Same opinion. Love 80' vibe of initial design. If it were professionally painted, it would be really unique instrument.
Well done, you did an awesome job, man 👍
新品として吊されていても気付けないくらい綺麗です！
そしてかっこいい…
ありがとうございます！
古いギターなのですが、汚れがすごいだけで状態は悪くありませんでした。
IbanezのRGシリーズはかっこいいですよね！
I’m sorry, but who the hell paints the machine heads? I’m really really enjoying these videos you do absolutely amazing work!
Awesome job, you made a beautiful guitar
Amazing work. My favourite one so far..
Agreed. Love that he stripped it all the way back to the wood.
another amazing restore sir!
Gran bel lavoro!
Subbed I love restoration videos and it's even cooler when they are guitars.
Thank you.
Now i'm sad... it's original paint was really cool and unique. This is your guitar and you can do whatever you want btw.
The design would have been great If done properly and the guitar had a recessed floyd rose.
It looks like It was done In a hurry and not with the proper time taken...
I gotta laugh at the animals that take a fine instrument and paint it so badly. These are great restoration lessons.
Awesome work! As others have said, I really liked the before graphic. Would love to see it redone professionally! Original had a very EVH vibe to it…
Bravo excellent job!!! 👏 👏 👏 👏
Thank you！
I liked it Harley Quinn Ed but it looks good.
A pintura tava detonada mas a guitarra tinha sua personalidade, seu trabalho foi ótimo, mas se fosse minha pediria apenas pra restaurar as ferragens, elétrica e caps e na pintura passar um verniz da um brilho e só
Primeira coisa que eu ia pedir é comprar captadores ESP e botar nela
Concordo com o seu comentário, a guitarra já estava muito linda.
Exacto uviese echo lo mismo, mi nombre es Xavier saludos desde Argentina,,
Оригинальная идея была неплохой, реализация подкачала
Superbe restauration 🤘
Le bonjour de 🇫🇷
Cool video but I think I would have kept the original design of the paint job. It was really cool
That's a lot of work for a Chinese made guitar. Wouldn't it have been easier just to throw it into a wood chipper and then buy a PRS?
Muito bom😊
A outra pintura tinha personalidade! Era só ter refeito o que tava de uma forma profissional.
其實有幾把彩繪琴都畫的蠻有特色的!若是我會留下彩繪的圖案!再清潔琴身與配件!原琴的顏色漆反而感覺不是像陸廠就是印尼越南廠那種質感
Great job! But forgot one back cover and the neck truss rod cover? Greetings.
Amazing work brother.
Thank you!!
another saved guitar wreak but do you use real lead solder on the joints,thanks for a good video of a brand that's underrated today
I wouldn't have removed that design for a thousand - it was cool - and very original . Just clean it up , set it up , and go !!!! Now its like all the rest.😢
It was rock and roll !!
Now its ....... well ...
Do you ever tune way down? Say to C, B or maybe even A?
Trash to treasure.
Gotta say those soldering spots on the pots are flawless. Makes me want to rip into my guitars just to resolder them all! 🤣
Awesome restoration. The frets look amazing!
塗装のクセが凄い🤣(リペア前)
ヴァンヘイレンのフランケンみたいにしたかったんでしょうね！かなり個性的な見た目でした！
That hacksaw blade pattern on the lower body was pretty cool! Nice work!!!
@@studioasylan Eddy Van Halen "FrankenStrat? So very cool!
Have you thought about checking into ultrasound parts cleaners? You wouldn't have to work so hard stripping parts.
@@studioasylwhere are you found this guitars???
I’m sorry… but the guitar was so cool… a little clean up and retouch… it gave me ideas 🤓… 🤣
why wouldn't you use paint stripper if your going to remove all of the paint?
Looks fantastic...but why didnt you also Made a truss rod cover out of this plastic Peace?
Someone had no idea what they had. I've never seen a BC Rich go for under a $1000.
Does finger board need olive oil, lemon oil or linseed oil?

Now we've all seen, the body of the expensive B.C. Rich glued from four boards
es la gama baja de B.C. Rich, hecha en China, al menos no es multilaminado!
i woulda left the paint that design is sick
I wanted to know what goes on in the head of a person who destroys a guitar doing these crazy paintings
What is that coller removeing liquid name? ? That ac tone or other things??
Paint was removed with lacquer thinner.
nice love oid bcs
Legal demais! Só faltou instalar ponte e tarraxas gotoh.
je suis le 1k ! bon moment !
お初です。凄くキレイになってます。ブリッジなど金属パーツを一つ一つ、丁寧に頑張りましたね。オレなら、無理です。本当にピカピカです。しかし、最後の試し弾きを見てたら、『どうせ、自分の好みにするのかな…』って、思いましたよ。それなら、また動画、上げて下さい。
ありがとうございます！
次の動画もすでに撮影中ですので楽しみにしていてください。
awesome! just one thing tho, i think the bridge and neck pickups were reversed during reassembly. :)
thank you！
Certainly the pickup was the opposite.
I fixed it after posting the video.
Cool 🤙🏼
B.C.Rich asm 1ですね。私が初めて購入したギターの色違いで驚きました！ちなみに作業前のＰＵが逆に取り付けられていたので、この動画の取り付けで合っています。
入門機ながらとても作りが良くていいギターですよね！
ピックアップの指摘もありがとうございます。
Класс👍Какие чистящие средства используешь интересно? На русском или хотя бы английском напиши)

what type of the cleaner liquid do you use at 11:55 , I need to clean my tuner and chrome hardware but can not find an effective cleaner.
This is done using a lacquer thinner.
Nail polish remover can be substituted.
@@studioasyl thank you. love your guitar restoring video and learnt a lot from you as well your process.
動画をありがとうございます。
勉強になる。
20年前かな。
マンドリンのウレタン塗装が気に入らなくて、剥離剤で取る。
のちにルシアーさんから叱られた。
剥離剤の成分が木材を痛めてしまうのだと。
今回の動画では化学的より物理的に剥離している。
私のした大きな過ちをこの動画で改めて理解した。
感謝します（＾＾）
What is used as cleaning agent?
Looks nice but I'm sorry you got rid of the crappy graphics on the body.
Please start showing all switch positions on these rebuilds. I want to hear what the guitar sounds like in more than one position. Thanks and Great Job! Best Regards
So Im curious what do you do with these guitars once you have restored them, are they for sale or do you restore for friends. I d like to buy one if they are up for sale.
Sometimes we sell them on Yahoo!
Nice job! いいね！
Thank you very much.
Where do you find all these junked out guitars?
Internet auction site.
Just one question, you don’t apply copper shield on your electronic cavity ? It’s an easy upgrade for only few bucks
I will try conductive paint on the cavity next time I get a chance.
Really nice work -where do you find these mishandled pearls?!?
Internet

But I would have kept the rusted in look because I don't know where that guitar came from or from how long ago but it's had a life...
why not fix the fretboard and replace the frets? and setting the scale on the fretboard?
Looks like you put the pickups in the wrong positions, neck and bridge swapped.
Mantap 👍
Where are you finding these guitars? They are all great bones guitars
Internet
