BC Rich Bich 10 String Electric Guitar

More...

Rich Bich 10 has all the same sonic features of the Exotic Classic Bich 10 which means that you get the same great Bich 10 wall of sound wrapped in understated clothing. Features include a basswood body, ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets, B.C. Rich Quad bridge and two high output Rockfield Mafia pickups. Sorry, case not included.How does a 10 string workPlayed like a regular 6 string guitar, the basic principal of the 10 string guitar is much like a 12 string. The highest two strings are tuned in unison, the middle two strings are tuned in octaves and the lowest two strings are single and do not have the upper octave strings. By leaving the low two strings single, it allows the player to get a normal distortion tone without confusing and canceling the signal. When playing full chords it creates a serious wall of sound. The doubled strings are also handy for thickening cleaner passages much like a 12 string. Leave it to B.C. Rich to creatively run the additional 4 strings in the opposite direction starting in the headstock and terminating with the four extra tuners conveniently and strategically mounted in the Bichs unique cutaway body shape. This feature makes it immediately evident which tuners are used for the double strings.
