B.C. Rich Kerry King V2 Electric Guitar

Colours : black w/generation 2 flame graphic




If you are one of the hundreds of thousands of people to see Kerry King on stage with Slayer recently you have seen his Generation 2 graphics. This faithful reproduction of his latest graphics features a new two-tone tribal design floating over fire. The Kerry King V2 model is equipped with B.C.R.A. active pickups and a Kahler tremolo. It also features an ebony fingerboard, special inlay and a Beast headstock. 
Bolt-on Construction
A number of B.C. Rich guitars use a classic Bolt-on construction. On these instruments a neck (typically maple) is bolted on with 4 screws to the body. This construction offers some added flexibility in the instruments adjustment and provides the option to change the neck in the future. 
B.C. Rich BDSM Pickups
B.C. Rich designed their BDSM humbucking pickups to provide a solid sound and to be durable while delivering high output. BDSM stands for Broad Dynamic Sonically Matched. Which simply means that the pickup is designed to reproduce a wide range of frequencies accurately (broad dynamic). Then they are tested and matched in pairs (Neck and Bridge) by their inherent individual and signature tonal and output characteristics to give a solidly balanced tone (sonically matched).

Beveled Top
Most of B.C. Rich body styles employ a beveled edge around the shape. In many ways bevels on a top are similar to facets on a cut stone. They catch the light and reflect at different angles giving the instrument more of a three dimensional look. Some of the B.C. Rich top bevels are extreme and wide while others are subtle and narrow. Occasionally the shape of the instrument is accented by painting the bevels a contrasting color.
