Does anyone here have an NJ Series S type, & if you do can you post a picture of it please?


Also, I'm looking to trade a couple guitars for something.. Either a tube head if I can borrow a little bit from my parents, or a guitar.. The guitars are platinum & platium pro series Warlock, an NJ S Series or a Masterpiece series Mockingbird. Now my initial plan was to do a Warlock like Mick's in Looks That Kill, & with a Platinum Pro Warlock all I have to do is get a new neck & paint it. Then it will be like Micks & I'll have a 24 fret Floyded guitar until I can finnish my Swan. But the Masterpiece Mock is beautiful too

What's the NJ Series S type? I'm a noob with teh Rich's.

NJ= Nagano Japan not New Jersey . This the the BC rich import line but they are very good quality instruments. especially the NJ's from the 80's
S Im not sure of probably a newer import line.

i have no clue about newer ones, ive had a ton of the older ones. ide try & find an older NJ or a US series which was a basically an NJ with usa hardware. great guitars, ive
heard the new imports have gotten better.

Ive got that same exact guitar in white. Mines a bit beat up but I just consider it mojo. I'll have to look for a pic of it.

Here ya go.I dont know why the strings and stuff look all crusty in the pic. Its not nearly that bad in person. Its a pearlish sparkle white just like the sparkle white on a model series.

Very cool in the white.. I have a metallic cream Charvele Model 5a thats dead mint and wont photograph to save my ass.
Any idea what pickups are in the NJ? The info I can find on them is pretty sketchy.
To the original poster.. sorry to hijack your thread bro.. I get carried away sometimes.

I dont know what pickups they are. Im not even sure if they are original. As you see they have the 3 pickup screws. There is no center hole in the ring so either its original or they changed the rings too. I noticed yours has just the 2 screws. My serial is B5742 from the neckplate.

I always thought the NJ series stood for New Jersey.

I read somwhere it ment "New Japan"

[j2379]

nope nagano japan, early ones were BCRico's. warlocks didnt exist back then tho. i believe the pups were gotoh made dimarzio knock offs, some ricos had dimarzios as did the US series.

Only the ones with Kahlers does the NJ mean anything. Anything witin the NJ series with a floyd was made at the Cort factory in Korea. They are on par with our charvel model series.

That would be Nagoya Japan
