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...
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.
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?
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.
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.
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 ...
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
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".. ✌️🤘🇦🇺
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 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 :)
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
Siamo Cina ma una chitarra e sempre una chitarra il suono e per chi sa come suonarla in qualsiasi genere molto elegante e semplice ma suona benissimo e ritornata nella vita
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!
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...
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.
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,,,,,
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!
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
dude, your work is great and your skills are extraordinary, but to save time in the restorations you do you could remove the paint and clean all the metal parts of the instruments you fix WITH LASER, there are laser machines that remove all the paint, grease, etc. dirt and rust in just A FEW SECONDS, greatly facilitating your efforts in your work, these machines are expensive to buy but there are companies that rent them to you by the hour, maybe it would help you a lot in your work, keep it up, cheers 😃😉
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...
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
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.
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
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
Dude, you have to open your own guitar and bass repair shop, the way you breathe new life into seemingly dead instruments is inspiring
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
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.

Awesome work! But, I have to say that the original graphics look cool also. The music sounded badass!
You did your demo justice by switching amps for the clean and dirty sections. Little details but big impact on me nice job! 🔥🔥🔥
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.
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,,
Where do you find those guitars to restore? I would like to walk through those same places!
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.😢

Wow great job you brought this guitar back to life. Fantastic job...
I gotta laugh at the animals that take a fine instrument and paint it so badly. These are great restoration lessons.
Yep this is my fave restoration you have done so far. It looked beautiful with the clear coat over the wood grain too.
Man, you really resurrected that thing! Impressive work on this one especially, sir.
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👍🏻
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.
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.
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！
Excellent job restoring a B.C. Rich ASM 1 circa 2011-2013.
At least the headstock was left original. Beautiful work!
Спасибо за видео. Результат просто шикарный!
It always looks better once you start playing it.
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！
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
I’m sorry, but who the hell paints the machine heads? I’m really really enjoying these videos you do absolutely amazing work!
Siamo Cina ma una chitarra e sempre una chitarra il suono e per chi sa come suonarla in qualsiasi genere molto elegante e semplice ma suona benissimo e ritornata nella vita
A outra pintura tinha personalidade! Era só ter refeito o que tava de uma forma profissional.
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 inspire me to do a better finishing job
Great job, I would love this guitar after you finished it.👍🏼
Your best video yet top job
You just have a new subscriber, awesome work!!! ❤ cheers from Mexico
Оригинальная идея была неплохой, реализация подкачала
Great job! But forgot one back cover and the neck truss rod cover? Greetings.
nice job! this is the omanco guitar!!
Looks like you put the pickups in the wrong positions, neck and bridge swapped.
Amazing work. My favourite one so far..
Agreed. Love that he stripped it all the way back to the wood.
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…
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.
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...
Does finger board need olive oil, lemon oil or linseed oil?
Cool video but I think I would have kept the original design of the paint job. It was really cool
Well done, you did an awesome job, man 👍
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?

Amazing work.
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?
I liked it Harley Quinn Ed but it looks good.
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。
Awesome job, you made a beautiful guitar
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’m sorry… but the guitar was so cool… a little clean up and retouch… it gave me ideas 🤓… 🤣
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!
What is that coller removeing liquid name? ? That ac tone or other things??
Paint was removed with lacquer thinner.

Looks nice but I'm sorry you got rid of the crappy graphics on the body.
another amazing restore sir!
Класс👍Какие чистящие средства используешь интересно? На русском или хотя бы английском напиши)
Legal demais! Só faltou instalar ponte e tarraxas gotoh.
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!

course, painting the tuners and such definitely didn't help, but the pattern actually looks rather unique
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???
How a guitarist can do that to his guitar?! Especially an old BC Rich like that...
Старая гитара??? Это же Китай...
Subbed I love restoration videos and it's even cooler when they are guitars.
Thank you.
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。

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（＾＾）
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!
Cool 🤙🏼
Gran bel lavoro!
why not fix the fretboard and replace the frets? and setting the scale on the fretboard?
What is used as cleaning agent?
Do you ever tune way down? Say to C, B or maybe even A?
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...
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.
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.
Next vid..... Restoring junk pants.
Bravo excellent job!!! 👏 👏 👏 👏
Thank you！
i woulda left the paint that design is sick
nice love oid bcs
Muito bom😊
I wanted to know what goes on in the head of a person who destroys a guitar doing these crazy paintings
Yeah, I liked the original paint better.... I thought it had some character
Think of it as a nice clean palette now, lol 🖌🎨
Superbe restauration 🤘
Le bonjour de 🇫🇷
Where do you find all these junked out guitars?
Internet auction site.
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
That's not a cheap guitar. Someone treated it like junk, though. I'm glad it made its way to you!!😊. I bet you'll keep this one.
it says crafted in china. real bc rich are made in los angeles
Puso las pastillas al revés
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.
Amazing work brother.
Thank you!!
間違っていたら申し訳ないですが、リペア後フロントとリアのPU逆になってませんか？
リペア前もフロントのPUは上下逆に付いてるように見えましたが。
ピックアップの裏にNとBの刻印があったので、Nをフロントに、Bをリアに取り付けました。
今一度本体を確認してみます！
作業前は確かにフロントは上下逆についてましたね。
