Oh my God those US Masters are sweet They make some serious quality quitars. I had a Strat copy years ago in Lacewood body with the pao ferro board and birdseye neck and the quality was off the charts!! I sold it because the original owner had small frets on it. I would love to find one like the ones you had Jack.

Those are great! I remember seeing those from one of your other posts. I really like the snakeskin and the bengal. How did the necks compare on those gunslingers? Were they identical or did they vary in profile?

I have owned a few from the same era and they all were Identical. I could not feel a difference at all.

I couldn't tell the difference in any of them other than the Skull n Crossbones, which was a ClassAxe fiddle. Even the ST-3's were pretty much dead on to the Gunslinger's neck. They were "unfinished", but to me had the feel of a EBMM neck as far as the texture. Not quite as raw as J/C necks.

I loved those guitars - but very one dimensional - but then again, so am I!!

Yep - very sweet guitars. I sold those to get the Gunslingers! I wish I had kept the Bengal one - that was a custom axe built for a friend of mine who ended up not taking it because the endorsement deal they were working on fell through for about 8000 reasons. The frets were unique - I was always kind of on the fence about them.

awesome Awesome gunslinger!

great score.

Nice!! I have that exact same guitar except it has a single coil in the neck position. Otherwise, it would be hard to tell them apart. I was told that makes mine an assassin. But besides a slight variation on the snakeskin pattern.......it is EXACT. I was also told that mine is probably an 87 model, but I don't know how accurate the guy was. He was from some online BC Rich website. These old USA BC Rich's do play very nice. I bet you love the neck!

Congrats on a sweet snakeskin! I actually had first dibs on it but decided to pass as I had some personal things going on. I'm sure I'll regret it.......

I too have a snakeskin (although blue) with a single in the neck, that appears to be all original from the factory. I've often wondered if those were truely part of the assassin line or a mutant of the Gunslinger line:

The slanted pickup was an attempt to reconcile the spacing of the polepieces of the pickup with the string spacing of the Floyd Rose, before Floyd spaced pickups were available.

HAVE A GOOD ANSWER, what?!?!?!?!? whar does toejam and ron have to say about this, the slanted pick- up, i mean, gypsy i think you may have found a new home
