mine has a B9824 serial number, so that makes it a what year ???

btw, the trem isn't up to scratch, so another £50.00 for a new floyd looks likely (doh!!!).

I DO like how the guitar plays though and the neck is nice, plus I always wanted a pointy headstock BC Rich from when I saw Slayer playing them in the SOH days.

The Dirty Fingers sounds darker than I'd like - can imagine it'd pair up better with a higher gain amp rather than my plexi-inspired amp.

Months down the line this one, but I've only just got this playable TODAY.

The first floyd was old and worn out.  the second floyd was cheap and unusable.  the third floyd got here today - another old German-made floyd, but you can see its barely been used (no black paint worn off the fine tuners).

The best bit is.... IT STAYS IN TUNE, woooooo!!!!  :D

I've got the Dirty Fingers away being wax potted, so its got a cheap BC Rich pickup in it for the time being (which sound alright in fairness).

What BKP singles would fit with the Dirty Fingers best? - I prefer the softer/woody tones from A2/A3 single coils and not overwound ones either.

Gonna gig this baby asap and let out the whammy bar animal in me  :lol:

I remember this one. Lookin good, man. It's always nice to bring one back from the dead. These little projects of ours always seem to take a LITTLE longer than we hoped for, huh?

maaaaan, you said it.  been driving me nuts trying to get this sorted.

at least its been set up and had the frets dressed, so its plays really nice now too.  not the usual 'cobbled street' affair like my other guitars.
