BC Rich Warlock II Prototype

That is TOO fucking cool. LOVE the flat body with binding AND the V-trem!

Headstock is interesting too, look at how the strings slant coming off of the nut. Looks like there was a lot of refinement to that headstock shape (which is one of my faves).

Nice one.

[Hellraiser6502]

Warlock II, flat top bound body, reverse curved headstock (firebirdish) few had non reverse headstocks, all mahogany, dot inlays, 1 hum, stripped down active elctronics system & V-trem and no or very little neck angle. there are a couple of Kahlered ones floating around as well, but they are very rare.

regular warlocks (from the same era) bevelled body, 3 on 3 headstocks (other headstocks were options), diamond inlays (most of them) clouds on rare supremes & dots on later & cheaper models, more of a neck angle for the badass/quad bridges & Kahlers.

there is also 2 different US/handmade regular warlock shapes, the cutaways are the biggest difference between the 2 shapes.

Yep, dead on. Couldn't have said it better!

IMO, that body should never have bevels on it and should always be bound. Elegant and sexy as all hell.

Great minds think alike! Totally agree. The beveled bodies make it look cheap and distorts the shape in my opinion.

Some of the bolt on import Warlocks were just hideous in appearance, very far removed from the clean lines of the original 2 Warlocks

Thank you! I agree with the rest about the bevels - flat looks waaay better. I also prefer this shape to the NJ Warlock, which hits the mark close but not quite. I'd take the regular in-line headstock over this though.

I concur. Its done well for 29 years!
