MORE COWBELL!I got dibs on the cowbell!
She's all purdy now! Now start playing them!Get to go pick up my baby tomorrow. 1989 BC Rick Warlock 630WL. The L.A. Series BC Richs are quite rare. If you go a do a google or ebay search for one you wont find one for sale 99.9% of the time. Theres varying reports out there but the reports put the production numbers of each of the various models in the LA Series line up at somewhere between 500-2000 depending on who you ask. So far I've managed to find two. The 620ST Super Strat I found was in pretty good condition and only needed a replacement trem block but the Warlock had seen some pretty heavy use.
They did pretty much a total restore to this thing. I had em install all new pots, switches, wiring, refretted the neck, installed custom made brass tremolo block, Schaller sure claw, and a set of Seymour Duncan Invaders.

Yeah, I have seen him play just about anything. But that was when I was a kid. I never appreciated it back then. I think his main instrument was fiddle if I remember correctly, which says a lot for his guitar skills.Roy is amazing on anything with strings.. Both his guitar and banjo playing are phenomenal.
Loved Hee Haw and Roy Clark!I found something interesting today. My dad loved watching The Grand Ole Opry, Hee Haw, and anything Country music on tv. Roy Clark was one of his favorites, and dad even met him one time while at the Opry. I never knew he was considered one of the best guitarists ever. This is pretty damned amazing.
Nice collection! I really like that red Epiphone!
Does it suffer the same issues as the Gibson SG with the 1st fret intonation being a tad off on the center strings? Mine has that problem, but it's not bad. Mine is a 60's tribute.Yeah, the Epi is sweet but neck dive happy. I had to add 6oz. of lead weight to the control cavity to correct that.
I haven't noticed... I'll check it later.Does it suffer the same issues as the Gibson SG with the 1st fret intonation being a tad off on the center strings?
The way the center strings are at angles going over the bridge causes it. It's pretty common on those SG style guitars. Nothing to fret over (pun intended)Not sure if mine is a tribute, got it used.
I haven't noticed... I'll check it later.
I do have a TP-6 tailpiece with individual string adjustment and microtuning so that might make a difference.
Same here. I'm 69 and been in bands since high school. With a touch of carpal tunnel I'm limited to about 1/2 hour a day. Sold off all the big iron amps, I'll never gig out again anyway. Going to winnow the guitar herd down also, just keep one each of the major types (Strat, Tele, Jag, LP, SG, 335).I don't play much anymore.
Cheapy China Cozart- plays surprisingly well and sounds fantastic, esp. w/ a little chorus. Well worth the $$$I have never seen an electric 12 string guitar. I bet that sounds amazing.
