They've gotten somewhat difficult to find, particularly at reasonable prices. Not profound advice, but watching eBay or Reverb closely probably is your best bet. Music Zoo occasionally seems get to a nice one and has asked fairly reasonable pieces before. Guitar Center seems to get one or two a year at a solid price.

Which type are you looking for? The Bich 10 like Joe Perry's seems to be the most expensive. Mockingbirds with cloud inlays and Warlocks with the 3x3 headstock also seem to cost a fortune lately.

I see good deals on ebay quite often for those.

 

[Beyond Black]

The prices that people are asking for old USA Riches, and new ones for that matter, are insane. Check Ebay and Reverb every day, because sometimes good deals do come up up, and they don't last long. About 5-6 years ago, a mint, black USA Bich with diamond inlays and without all the preamp bullshit came up on Ebay for $1000 B.I.N.. I pondered buying it for 10 minutes and it sold while my dumbass was looking at the ad. That one still haunts me too this day......

I should have jumped on the translucent pink Bich at Music Zoo a few months ago.

Looking for a mid 80's warlock or Warlock 2

GC had a Warlock 2 last year for months. Good price; I would have bought it immediately if I had any use for 6-strings. I've always loved the Warlock shape.

Check out the BC Rich Junkies FB page. There's a member, Christopher Probst. I bought an '81 and an '83 Mockingbird from him and he's a solid guy to deal with. I believe he's in Burbank CA.

Evil Guitars. I think the guy's name is Mike Grecco. Solid guy.

One of my first electric guitars as a teenager was a black BC Rich ST III. I've been keeping my eyes open for another one for a while.

It's hard to find a solid example in the right color...

+1 on this. I sold him a few of my old USA BC Rich's from my collection several years back.
Guy has some good stuff.

Ha, yea. That dude is one of the best cinematographers in the world!

And he has mad luthiery skills too. He rebuilt the circuit for the last Mockingbird I got from him made a bone nut and did an awesome setup!

I've been looking for an old 70's Eagle if anyone has a line on one of those or see's one, let me know. Brad Whitford use to play one that I absolutely loved back in the day!

The Guitar Collector in Mesa Arizona has a handful out and about and a pretty huge collection in his personal stash. Lots of former Endorsee stuff. Worth the trip if your close or a phone call if your not. He has a reverb shop as well, but saves the good stuff for in store.
