About This Listing

Up for sale, a 1985 B.C. Rich NJ Series Warlock Bass in 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original gigbag. From the sought after NJ Series (short for Nagoya, Japan), this bolt-on B.C. Rich is crafted with the utmost skill and attention to detail. Flaunting a menacingly contoured bound alder body, maple neck, thick slab rosewood fretboard, and pair of split coil Precision-style pickups, this Warlock can conjure plenty of aggressive punch and heft with a myriad of tone sculpting options.

Controls include a Master Volume, three-way pickup selector, Preamp Volume, Preamp On/Off switch, 6-position Varitone, Phase switch, Dual Sound neck pickup switch, Dual sound bridge pickup switch, and a Master Tone control to round things out. The bass can sound defined and open, or engage the Preamp to push your rig to its limit for mean grind. This Warlock weighs 8lbs 14oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

Neck Specs:

-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Chunky C, measuring .870” 1st fret, .995” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood slab, 24 fret
-Frets: Medium jumbo, no wear
-Scale Length: 34”
-Nut: 1 5/8”
-Tuners: R-stamped, chrome
-Serialization: Foil sticker, '85 date

Body Specs:

-Wood: Alder
-Pickups: P-style split coil x2
-Controls: Master Volume, Master Tone, Three-way pickup selector, Preamp Volume, Preamp On/Off switch, 6-position Varitone, Phase switch, Dual Sound switch x2
-Hardware: Four-saddle bridge, knurled knobs

The gloss White finish is framed by black body binding, and cosmetic wear includes finish chipping on the lower bout body points (common on Warlock shapes). Further wear is limited to light buckle rash and some lettering scratched by a previous owner central to the back, and a handful of faint scratches and minor dings on the body as a whole. The smooth satin finish on the neck profile exhibits a few shallow nicks along the profile length that don't distract the palm while fretting.

The original B.C. Rich-branded faux leather gigbag is included.
