The very first guitars that Bernie Rico made under the B.C. Rich banner were acoustic. It is with this nod to the early days of B.C. Rich’s illustrious past, that they've created the B.C. Rich Series 3 guitar, an acoustic-electric which touches upon and evolves from that classic moment in time. This stunner with flame maple top and headstock partnered with akoume/mahogany back and sides features a fast satin neck and Modern Cutaway body style that helps you reach notes easier. It also comes with a discreet Fishman Sonitone pickup to help electrify your acoustic performances. As with all B.C. Rich instruments, it starts with great sound and playability and then takes it up a notch with boutique guitar visual design elements including a diamond artwork rosette, clear pickguard, chrome die-cast tuners with R logo, white plastic diamond and double diamond fingerboard inlays, and white plastic top binding with black inside.
