    Hey guys, Ive been recently thinking about getting the B.C. Rich Gunslinger Retro. Has anybody tried it out? If so, how does it play? Any comments are welcome and appreciated.

    i didn“t tried it, but it looks really really awesome, its like a simbol of glam!
    anyway, C.C. Deville uses bc rich gunslingers, just check
    some poison videos.
    im sure that a guitar beautifull, and iconic as an bc rich gunslinger just cant be bad, principally for glam music.

    They are quiet allright. but if you can find an older one on ebay or something i would go for that one. The older USA mades are so much nicer i think. Ones compared an 80's mockingbird with the new mockingbird special. But the sound and feel of the older one was much better i tought.

    Do you think the change from DiMarzio to Rockfield makes a signifigant diffrence. Good? Bad?

    hm well, lets say they are different. Both are nice in there own way. The rockfield aren't bad pickups at all! Really nice dirty tone, a bit PAF like tone with a bit more output.
    Dimarzio super distortion are a living classic offcourse ;)
    I have a seymour duncan SH-4 (jeff beck) in my sg. Verry nice sound. Also used by jack e lee and paul stanley.

    Thanks for the comparison between those two. And I was thinking if I didnt like the rockfields, I could always just change them to super distortions later.
