Rich Neck Thru

Rich Neck Thru
BC Rich Neck-thru series Bich?

I recently purchased a BC Rich Bich Neck-thru Series Guitar. AAA Quilted Maple top 24 frets, diamond MOP inlays.
I have found scant information on the neck-thru series guitars, but none on the Bich Model.
My Question is,
a) What where the production years of this particular model
b) What was installed as OEM Pickups, (Rockfield or BDSM’s)
c) SInce ther is vitually no information at all on the Bich Model of Neck-thru Series Guitars, should this be considered a rare. or special guitar?

The Neck-Thru Bich is still in production. The above website should be able to answer some of your questions.

B.C. Rich Warlock NJ Deluxe 4-String Bass Onyx Ebony Fretboard


B.C. Rich Warlock NJ Deluxe 4-String Bass Onyx Ebony Fretboard


$749.99


The 4-string B.C. Rich NJ Deluxe Warlock Bass reigns supreme with its classic B.C. Rich neck-through design, ebony fingerboard, EMG pickups and Grover tuners. The BC Rich Warlock bass is designed for those who seek the best in a bass guitar.B.C. Rich is known as one of the pioneers in Neck-Thru construction. They use it on many of their bass guitars because it provides the best possible sustain, resonance, comfort, and access to higher frets. Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high-end guitars. This construction starts with premium North American maple runs from the tip of the headstock to the end of the bass. This means that the headstock, fingerboard, pickups and bridge of the BC Rich Warlock NJ Deluxe bass all are mounted to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear. The neck-through construction also allows B.C. Rich to cut away more of the body and neck at the neck joint which provides comfort that no bolt-on or set-neck could offer.The EMG 35DC pickup is a product of 30+ years of design experience. Reproducing an extended range cleanly—both higher and lower—taxes the abilities of conventional pickups. In the 35DC, EMG has succeeded in getting this extended range by using an ultra low noise, low-impedance internal preamp, paired with ceramic loaded dual parallel coils that result in an extremely versatile unit that can be used for just about anything from the cleanest highs right down to the dirtiest growling lows. The BC Rich Warlock NJ Deluxe bass features flat top styling, giving a bold and pristine look to the edge of the instrument's shape. B.C. Rich adds a stripe of single or multi-ply binding around the edge for a striking outline, finishing off the edge cleanly and giving a sleek and clean look to the electric bass.Other appointments on the BC Rich Warlock NJ Deluxe bass include C-neck shape, 24 frets, 1-13/20" nut width, 12" radius, and a gloss finish.
