Ha ha, the really nice LTD LP copies with 24 frets were the same in the US, here they wanted $4000 and now they are around $3k I think.

RR5 in the US is cheap, but here again, expensive.....don't go on US prices, unless you plan on bringing one in yourself.

Do you know where they are made Chris? I'm guessing it's not USA.

Do BC Rich have overseas factories in Japan or would it be China?

Those guitars feel like the Schecter guitars to me. Solid enough to get the job done but they feel a bit "plasticky" :D and synthetic to me.

THAT particular guitar is made in korea .. hanzor owns a few compnays michael kelly is the other guitar line they own .. that guitar feels well built to me and not cheap. i cant compare it to a $2,000 usa anything but for what it is its a great guitar. i have the yellow retro gunslinger i find it to be fantastic , and infact .. i us eit in my studio ALOT.. is it the same guitar as my custom usa zion??? NO.. not at all but its damm nice. they really got it right on that guitar.. for the price too is great..

the one at the store is 899.99 usd . i really like they put his name sorta hidden so its not all over the guitar too.

i will tell you the NEW usa production line gunslinger IMO isnt much better than the korean one for the money in fact your better off gettin the korean one and putting your fav Pick ups and stuff in it it's a way better value.. thats if your a player . but if your buying for reslae or to collect then hey man by all means spend 2,499 on a usa . me personally if im going to do that im going for a zion or monster or some hand made ass kickin guitar . way better product.
