1985 B.C. Rich Warlock Bass NJ Series White Nikki Sixx w/ Active Preamp, Japan

Up for sale, a 1985 B.C. Rich NJ Series Warlock Bass in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. 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 Bass weighs 9lbs, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 40-95 roundwound strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
