That bridge on the first red guitar is an Ibanez original edge. Bc rich usa used an unbranded Ibanez edge trem on many models in the mid to late 80s. The bar is a standard edge bar that you can easily find.
i notice the eirler ones have a gohto witch is the same comp that prod the edge
yeah my 88 STIII had a gohto, had a sripped trem arm, replaced it with an edge. nice guitars, I like mine.
@@jeffdavid3880 Iam actually putting a ge1996t on my 2021 berttta special
I was coming to say the same thing. How can we trust any information about this guitar from someone who doesn't even know the bridge was an Ibanez Edge? You're not "looking high and low" for a replacement bar, they are right on Amazon if you want one.
Gunslingers are my favorites
9:05 Good thing Ed Roman was still alive when you talked to him
Lol! Yep! It would make a great ED HAUNTS TONE MANN SPECIAL! Give me my gunslinger back Jack! Lol!
Nice collection TTK! Thanks for sharing man. It's always fun learning about these guitars!
Very cool. Thanks for the history and sharing your collection.
Great Collection and great video, very good info I learned quite a bit about BC Guitars i didn't know.
Man your guitar collection is amazing. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing those! Love seeing those guitars!
Allow me to straighten the history out a bit, the ST-III didn't come until late 86 into 87, Dave started with BCR in 86. the "III" in ST-III stands for 3rd Generation, as it was the 2nd spinoff of the ST, not the 3 switches ....
Correct. This guy always makes videos on bc riches with wrong info
Hi Tone King, great job giving us the history on these Fantastic BC Rich jewels. I had a custom painted BC Rich ST-III that I absolutely adored in the late '80's and gigged with regularly in the hair band days. It replaced a cool Charvel I also loved. Sold them both, but REALLY wish I could get that ST-III back!!!! What a great neck that baby had!!!
This is the video I been waiting for. So much so that I ditched my iPad to watch it on my big screen 4K tv to see these beauties all all their glory. Thanks TTK, love your work.
Nice collection Louis. Plus that new ride is sweat.
Nice collection TK ,I love the Flame on the neck of the first one ! Rock on buddy !
Awesome gunslingers mate. I have two and I also have two warbeasts aswell. Bc rich are amazing guitars, very underrated
every time i see new video from you i will have great content nice information with great guitars you have , keep them save
I learned something about my favorite guitar! My grandmother gave me a Warkock platinum series trans. dark blue for Christmas 21 yrs. Ago. I know it was made in China and it has the trade mark on the headstock. So now I know it was made by class axe. Thanks TK!
Hey man nothing wrong with cheaper gutairs my grandfather and grandmother got me a mid level Jackson threw a Duncan distortion in the bridge and a random neck pickup from the 80s damn good gutair
Niiiiiice!!! I’ve always wanted a Gunslinger with a reverse headstock
That’s what mine is in slime green. I did a video on it if you’re interested
I also have a green one with a dimarzio the breed pick up, tge fucking thing absolutely rips
Wonderful video and great info on these old BC Richs. I hope the new BC Rich takes some inspiration from this video. Also, have you done a video on the red Kramer SM 1?
Great video! Nice guitars. 🤘🏻😎🎸
So amazing guitars 🎸 🤘🏼😎
I would give everything if BC Rich would do guitars like the snake and the ST3 today again... remembers the good old King Diamond-Days withe Pete Blakk & Andy LaRoque 🤩
I love Andy Laroque. Didnt know he played a B.C. Rich, I should have fugured.
That half cheetah one is awesome one of the coolest paint jobs ever
The "silver leopard" is my famous just because it's so bold (and I love the white pickups with it).
KILLER!!! I have a ST3, love it!
Awesome TTK I still have my b.c. rich guitars I am playing the outlaw, Warlock, and jr V there older models but still great guitars
I own a 1985 ish USA warlock neck thru fluorescent pink/purple and I love it!
Have had a few ST-IIIs, love them! Still have a bright pink late '80s one that I don't wanna sell. When I order a custom shop axe from the BC Rich custom shop? May have to be an ST-III with a Koa top, and a Kahler trem!
Awesome BC RICH Collection!
Very informative.
Both snake skins are very cool!
Looks like the 2017 snake skin has a worn in neck?
The red ST-3 had some flame on the neck too!
im such a masive fan of 80s superstrats !
Glitter and leopard print, that's what I'm talking' about! Couldn't make that BC Rich any better, except a guitar strap of unicorns. Lol
But seriously, loving all the BC Riches and I'm amazed at how new they all look.
I still have my White US STIII. It has an unfinished maple neck that has held up perfectly all these years later. I replaced the DiMarzio Humbucker in the bridge with a DiMarzio FRED Joe Satriani pickup in the late 80's early 90's. I thought the bridge was a bit too hot.
I have 2 ST-3’s. One is hot pink and the other is snakeskin. I have one gunslinger in navy camouflage. All 80’s vintage.
That was fun. I wish I'd spent the very little money that BC Rich was asking for their guitars in the early to mid 80's. But I bought a very nice 1985 Ibanez Artist AM75 with Dimarzio triple ceramics (ye108's), and still love it very much today. The pickups are like nothing else I've ever heard since that time.
I must have the blue boa!! Gorgeous!!
What's up tone king. How you doing man. Love your videos. You have a hell of a collection of amps & guitars. Have a good day man. SALUTE ✌ & GOODBYE.
This is similar to mine, though mine doesn't have the EMG's & all Hardware is Black with Metallic Black finish.
Mine, according to serial number (apparently Yamaha recycle their serials every decade) is 1980 (they weren't manufactured until about '85 onwards), 1990, or 2000 (I purchased mine 2nd hand in '98, so definitely made pre 2000.
Must be 1990.
Has the 3 mini toggles. 1 is a Phase In/Out.
1 is a Volume & Tone bypass which I use as a Volume Cut by keeping my Volume dial rolled right back & toggling the switch, I can make her cut in & out. A good effect. 🙂
The other mini toggle is the 'bucker's coil splitter.
The things a serious Shred machine. Soooo smooth to play with such a fast neck & action.
Everybody that plays her always comments what a sahweet action she has. Yamaha make some great instruments.
I love some B.C. Rich, Jackson, Ibanez, ESP, JPS, etc... too.
Sooo many fine guitars out there these days. It's great.
My latest guitar is a Jackson JS32 RR Uneven V with FR Trem, was only AUD$620 and is 1 of my favourites to play now.
She plays very nicely too. 😍
I'm just a guitar nut! 😂

The first guitar BC rich red st 3 i have the same guitar but in Blue sparkle Nice guitar Nice collection Tone King !
Thanks for this Video, love the BC's Guns, Assassin's, Villains.. beautiful collection u got. Unfortunately my place, Gernany is light years away with the BC's. I will need a decade to find something rare with quality. Greetz
The Ibanez Edge bars from same era fit as the tremolos on those BC Rich guitars are the same the bars can be found online Amazon .
Wow. Nice. The tremolo on the ST-3 really looks like an Ibanez edge tremolo
Good eye,l thought the exact same thing.only the edge has that massive,rounded base.
Very informative video! Super collection of Gunslingers. I have a snakeskin 80's gunslinger. Do you happen to know what model of Dimarzio pickup was installed?
I loved the B.C. Rich strats back then. I never got one but came close. Always loved the DiMarzio Super Distortions, they really breathed fire. I played in a number of L.A. clubs bands in the 80s metal scene and the Gunslinger was very popular back then. Also the other models like Warlock, Rich Bitch, Mockingbird, Iron Bird and Stealth.
My first guitar was a BC Rich Platinum series Crackle Strat, bought in 1990 and I still have it , but I need to get the neck fixed.
Yeah, man! Mine was a Platinum turquoise Warlock in 1987!
Really like your silver n leopard paint bc rich
Thanks for this video. I'm the original owner of a 86-87 pearl white STIII. One of the reasons I wanted it was because of a Paul Stanley ad where he was holding it in the guitar mags at the time. It's a great playing guitar. The neck just feels perfect...shape, thickness, finish (or lack of). Ibanez Edge arms and bushings fit the trem. Mine has the same stress crack in the body where it meets the neck.
The bridge was also mounted slightly crooked, so the strings are shifted slightly to towards the top edge. This makes the low E string kind of easy to push off the neck when playing. Do any of your's have this too?
Still plays great though and feels like home.
I love CC's bc rich collection
I have a deceased friend whose first guitar was an ST-III in Alpine White and it was a really solid guitar, but he really didn't like it and sold it to our sound tech and went with an ESP. It had a Kahler on it and it was one of the Japanese-made ST-IIIs
Thanks for the info great video all these years I never knew I had a gunslinger LOL no trademark inverted headstock the guitars freaking awesome, but I can't play it because I had Billy Gibbons sign the guitar, when he signed it he was really checking it out he said he liked the guitar a lot
You're like me, looks like you take meticulous care of your gear. Nice guitars man.
That last Snakeskin one is so killer
Nice ass collection damn dude u got a rad collection u got charvels and gunslingers bc riches.... I know u have to have some Kramer’s too and I love that green kiesel u got
The tragic flaw of the ST3 is the three mini switches. What a pain in the ass. It’s not at all easy to switch from one pickup to another in a live situation. I love my Gunslinger! Dropped a Tone Zone in it and it smokes!
Tone king, you planning on doing anything for the revamped line?
@40:00 This looks to me similar to the Gunslinger that Andy LaRocque used for the recording of "Abigail" (King Diamond 1987), I would love to know as KD were the reason I got into HM (from a punk background) and I would love to have one in my "collection", along with my VMNT "Rust In Peace" and my Jem - all of which were the guitars used by my "heroes". I can no longer play due to the five strokes I've had - but these three guitars were "landmarks" for me since 1985 - I have two back in my hands but the 1985 "blue snakeskin" BC Gunslinger is evading me, hence I would love to find someone here in the UK that can possibly source me one. TIA and stay safe.
I believe that’s an Ibanez edge term on the red one. They used them for a bit. I had a gunmetal grey one with it. I’ve had 11 BC rich strats, Gunslinger’s, assassins, ST 1’s and ST-iii’s. And while I loved all of them, I have a black, neck thru ST-1 with cloud inlays and a kahler that is hands down one of the greatest guitars I’ve had the good fortune to play.
I bought a used Yamaha RGX1212S years ago that was missing the Trem bar.
It was a drop-in, & I found an Ibanez drop-in trem bar fits perfectly, & yet my Yammy's FR Licensed tremolo was slightly redesigned by Yamaha.
No need to clip string's ball-ends off, looks sleaker & much nicer, Japanese ingenuity. 👍
Please, look up Yamaha RM Pro tremolo. ☺
How lovely issit? 😍
killah collection, TK N' thankx 4 sharing. Xheeers! Likd 9
I was in LA in 88 and ended up buying a Copperhead Snakeskin Gunslinger (just like the blue one you have)
paid US$700 for it with hardcase ... Sold it the following year for the same money..
nice guitar ... good solid shredder ..
I have a 1980s before class axe 3 humbucker USA warlock with very small diamond inlays equal on all sides not the regular small ones you don't like as much, have you seen that before? I really enjoy your show and coverage of BC Rich guitars.
I had a Trapper Keeper binder with the same graphics on the Ed Roman guitar!! 80's were rad 🤘🏻
Any chance you can find a picture of it? I’d love to see what it looks like
The St 3 Floyd looks to be an Ibanez Edge Trem System
highly sought because they're awesome
That's an OG Ibanez Edge trem from the looks of things. They did make ST-iii's with an Edge for a little bit, maybe two/three years at the most.
great info tk
I've always wanted a gunslinger. Does Bc Rich still make guitars? Do you know what's going on with them lately?
How many guitars do you have in your collection and I am going to start learning how to play myself
wish i still had a peavy vandenburg guitar as well do you have one tk?
TTK 🤘 dude so may B.C. Riches man. Impressive, most impressive.
I have a very rare tony macalpine 1987. It looks like the gunslinger but its called a st custom tm2. Gotoh made the trems for bc.rich my t.mac has the edge trem and my green st3 has the edge trem
As far as I am aware, BC Rich made 3 different style licensed Floyd Rose tremolos in the late 80’s, with the BC Rich logo.
The 1st style, I have on an ST-III, has a brass sustain block & the trem arm tightens into place with an Allen wrench.
The 2nd was the pop in trem arm, w/o brass block, I had on a Gunslinger I owned.
The 3rd was a threaded screw in trem arm, I had on a Warlock I owned.
This was right before BC Rich was sold to Class Axe.
After that, who knows?
Helluva of a guitar too have yet it really inspires the heavy metal music era days 👍😎🎸👌🎼
What is the state of B.C Rich currently? Are there / will there be new models available? I haven't seen any new guitars on sale forever at least here in EU.
Did BC Rich ever make a neck thru, made in Korea, Gunslinger?I came across one, it also has two humbuckers and a Floyd rose.
gonna get one!!
Serious question. TTK would you consider trading or selling your BC Rich Silver Leopard guitar? Heard about it but didn't believe it existed.
TK, how many guitars do you have in your collection in total?
always great guitars hard to find these days at a fair price
I got one with the hot pink color & reverse headstock. but i dont have any idea where & when this axe was made. No serial number...no back plate
Actually, Bernie went to Larry Dimarzio and asked him for a much hotter version of a PAF pickup. The result was the Dimarzio Super Distortion which subsequently came stock in many BC Rich guitars and was a favorite aftermarket pickup throughout the 80s and early 90s.
I think the ST-III is an Ibanez Edge Floyd rose. BC Rich used some Ibanez bridges back then
Great video
I have an ‘87 ST-III with (factory) red snake skin top graphics. (I bought it in ‘88.) I’ve only been able to find a single (Pinterest) photo online. What do you know of this version of the ‘87 ST-III?
Are there serial numbers on the back of the neck towards the heel of BC Rich Gunslinger
BC15029 planetary painting. Dimez signed it. Flipped out and remebered me without it. Its got dings but undamaged
Could it be that Kerry King used a grey one in the late eighties(as seen in the World Sacrifice Tour booklet)?
I think you are correct, and that was the only time I saw him playing a strat shape
I always loved the Strat style BC Rich guitars. Warrant guitarists always had them with designs painted on them(Wish I could find one of them) as well as others of the era. Not so much a fan of the other "Pointy" models. Definitly loved the Gunslinger tho.
You have a great gear collection 👍
My guess about a quarter mil at least?
I want em all!!
hello my friend i also have a gunslinger 1186 custom edition looking for info on it asked bc no help yet thanks Cam
Damn! That red ST is killer!!!! Selling it?
They're some lovely axes you've got.
I bet you have a few of other brands also, amirite? 🙂
I love Bcrich
Just an Ibanez Edge Tremolo on STIII
When did the flying v come out neck thur bc rich?
Is there any 24 frets Gunslinger?
ROCK ON MR TONE 🎸☮️🎸I bought my gunslinger new in 87! My baby! SHES PURDY Amigo! Maybe I’ll track ya and get you a picture! Unfinished maple neck! Mahogany curves! And sounds so CHUGGA 🎸take care my Bc Rich buddy! Oooooo nice amps! May I arrange a play date lol! 🤘😎🤙🎸✨🎸🇨🇦
How did you find out the names of the colors? Like “arrest me red”
My only complaint with my ST-III and Gunslinger is I wish they had come with an original Floyd Rose and R2 nut. My Gunslinger has a Gotoh Floyd. And the ST-III has a Takeuchi one. Also the ST-III's locking nut does not bolt on from the back. Instead two wood screws hold it down from the top. The Gunslinger in my opinion was B.C. Rich's answer to the Kramer Baretta. Which I also have (a 1987 one).
I have an ST-III with the locking nut bolted on through the back. I think it's an '88. Serial number is BC12826. Licensed Floyd Rose, with a set screw arm.
I owned an STiii same arrest me red. Wow
Ok i just learned something B.C. rich still makes super strat guitars i didn't know that i thought they just made pointy guitars now days i loved those B.C. rich super strats from the 80's awsome guitars im not a pointy guitar kinda guy so i gotta find out where i can get one dont see them in stores anymore have to order one i guess
good god look at all that gear. its like an aladdin's cave!!
