These & other guitars have
been discontinued for various reasons
|
Some simply didn't sell well,
some had to be discontinued because Gibson sued us.
Some we were sent cease & desist letters on !!
Some of these guitars are temporarily unavailable because we are waiting for the
outcome of our lawsuit.
We are confident that we will prevail just like PRS did and then we may
reintroduce some of them again.
We at Ed Roman Guitars feel our designs are
better & more in keeping with this millennium.
So it is pretty unlikely we will re manufacture too many of these again !!!
We have almost 50 great new designs on the drawing board at this time.
We are always looking for new cool designs and we are always looking for cool
names for them.
Let us know if you can help!!!
When a manufacturer discontinues a model, you can always count on us to make up
a replica for you. In most cases our replicas are far superior to the original
model.
Without a doubt we have been carrying and selling BC Rich
guitars longer than any other dealer in the world. We started in 1977 buying 2
or 3 hand made high end guitars a week and the rest is history.
We
hardly ever carried the imported models, Today's economy has forced us to bend
and carry the imports. Most people today have no idea the difference between the
imported cheese and the real deal anyway.
What a shame!!! We guarantee to beat any price you can find on any BC Rich
import model !!!!! (Just look it up in any
catalog, Then call us, You won't be sorry.)
Most of the BC Rich guitars that we have built, (See Above) have all been
made from original BC Rich bodycores, the original serial numbers are still on
the guitar.
If there is no serial number, it is usually something we created for someone per
their exact order!!!!! We also have retopped and rebuilt over 300 BC Rich
Guitars. There are a number of copiers out there who try to pass their crap off
as something we have built. We have info on every one we ever did.
We have never represented one of ours to be a factory BC Rich. The Logo is
different and the headstock does not have the familiar BC Rich tit on the top.
It is very easy to distinguish our guitars from the production models.
We have estimated that we built or rebuilt, slightly more than 2000 BC
Rich or BC Rich styled guitars during a period of 17 years. During most of that
time we were also a very large BC Rich dealer. Excepting for a short period of
time we have been the largest BC Rich dealer in the world.
We have chosen to no longer offer these guitars because it might cause confusion
in the marketplace. and because Davitt & Hanser "HHI" has asked us to stop
making them.
