B.C. Rich Ironbird MK1 2024 – Black Gloss

$ 2172.06

This guitar is in perfect condition. It was purchased through Andertons.co.uk in September 2024. As this guitar was imported into Ireland, I had to pay duty and 23% VAT, which brought the price of the guitar up to 2,250 euros in total. Anderton’s was the only dealer in Europe I could find that carried BC Rich guitars at the time and I don’t think that has changed.

I am selling it because I didn’t like the neck profile, I guess I’m too used to Jackson and Ibanez necks.

All the tips and headstock are perfect.

The guitar is set up in eb with Ernie Ball 9-42 Slinkys.
