FROM SWEETWATER:
The B.C. Rich Gunslinger Retro II brings the company’s late-1980s bolt-on shredder back to life, enabling today’s players to experience authentic Sunset Strip–style fretboard action. This solidbody electric guitar is built around a lightweight slab of alder carved into a sleek, double-cut shape and covered with a spotlight-ready gloss finish. The Gunslinger Retro II’s maple neck is carved into a fast-playing Shredzilla Ultra Slim Contour profile and topped with a 22-fret, flat-radius fingerboard for maximum maneuverability. At the heart of this doughty desperado, you’ll find a Duncan Distortion humbucker, infusing it with fire-breathing tone and scorching-hot output. Moreover, the Gunslinger Retro II brandishes a Floyd Rose 1000 double-locking trem, putting the full lexicon of pitch-assaulting whammy techniques at your disposal. Players searching for an ’80s-style axe built for old-school melodic hard rock and traditional metal will hit the ground running when they strap on the B.C. Rich Gunslinger Retro II.
