What the hell is BC Rich thinking?!?!

[Guest]

They updated the site with the Kerry King V special..

it's basically a (very) cheap version of Kerry Kings Tribal V..

The thing that bothers the heel out of me is.. Why does a SLAYER signature guitar DOESN'T have a freaking TREMOLO!! ARGH!!

In every slayer solo they use the freaking thing so why isn't there one on his sig guitar?!?!

ok.. answer is probably because the guitar is very cheap.. but how expensive can a floyd copy be.. seriously..

I've seen the "NJ" version of the guitar.. and that looked a lot better.. licensed floyd, EMG HZs.. but I don't know if they bring that guitar in the 2003 line-up.. (is line-up the correct word?)

anyway I just needed to say that.. slayer signature guitars without a tremolo.. jeez.. [img]graemlins/refuse.gif[/img]

maybe because if its a SLAYER its gotta be a KAHLER flatmount.

i agree totally a KK sig. should have a trem, but IMO any signature edition should be as close as possible to the guitars that the artist uses.

I heard Kerry King play one when I went to him in Albuquerque NM last week. It sounded pretty good. After it was all over I plugged one in and it sounded and played pretty good, but you are right. I didn't buy one because it didn't have a trem and that kinda kills it for me. If I'm gonna play Slayer I got to have a dive bombing trem. Period. It's basically a Bronze Series with a tribal sticker under the clear coat.
