B.C. Rich Eagle Flame Maple Archtop electric guitar - everything that B.C. Rich stands for. Surprised! Every year, the BC Rich custom guitar shop gets lots of orders for archtop guitars like the Eagle, and for good reason. The through-neck construction used on the Eagle and other top-end BC Rich models has several advantages for archtop guitar-building. For a start, this method generates maximum impact from the sustain of the mahogany and the brightness of the flame maple top but it also allows for much better access to the top frets than a glued neck can provide. Finally, the through neck's stability allows the depth of the arch-top to be more sculpted towards the edge of the body than is usual. That's what makes the BC Rich Eagle a stunning guitar to play as well as look at.
Even the Rockfield Mafia pickups are rather special. Not only does the Eagle have 2 of these ceramic magnet pickups (for fantastic sensitivity and tone), the pickups have been 'tuned' specifically for the bridge and neck positions. In fact, the neck pickup has a slightly lower output and a little more brightness to provide a really 'fat' middle tone.
The B.C. Rich Eagle - flame maple top, mahogany body and neck, fantastic hardware and brilliant build-quality - a truly world-class electric guitar.
