Greetings from Minneapolis, Minnesota in wild and crazy United States of America. Today my BC-1 kit arrived- not too shabby since I ordered it only 8 days ago, the shipping wasn't terribly expensive, and Perth is one heckuva long way from Minnesota. But I guess Perth is a heckuva long way from everywhere.
The BC-1 is an homage to the BC Rich Avenge Son of Beast-- an absolutely ridiculous guitar. But in fairness the Son of Beast is 10% smaller than the especially ridiculous BC Rich Beast. I went to junior high in Iowa in 1990 at the height of the hair metal epidemic-- prime time for silly guitars. I've always thought it would be funny to have a BC Rich just because the flamboyance and excessiveness of them really doesn't fit me at all. Somehow in my mind building one myself as a woodworking exercise seems easier to justify than actually purchasing one.
Anyway- here it is fresh out of the box. Away we go!
