Kerry King has earned his reputation as one of Thrash
Metal’s premier guitarists by consistently delivering
crushing riffs, ripping tones and live performances with
the ruthless precision of a Panzer tank division. Just
as consistent is King’s stated preference for B.C. Rich
guitars, which have fueled his sonic fire for years.
B.C. Rich works closely with Kerry to offer a selection
of “Kerry King Approved” guitars that meet both his
demanding expectations and ours. From the Signature
Wartribe and Kerry King V to the Metal Master
Warlock and Beast V, these are guitars that reflect
Kerry’s requirements for consummate playability,
tone and construction. Pick one up and you’ll see for
yourself why Kerry King slays the masses with
B.C. Rich guitars.

Zoltan Bathory B.C. Rich
Signature Guitars
As guitarist, songwriter and a founder of Five Finger
Death Punch, Zoltan Bathory has taken the Metal
community by storm. His intense playing and the
group’s meteoric rise to popularity are astounding.
But in reality, the band has worked hard to develop a
following, spending more than two years on the road
performing with many of the world’s biggest bands.
Through it all, Zoltan has relied on his B.C. Rich guitars
to deliver the aggressive tone, playability
and dependability required for continual use
on the road and in the studio.
Now, B.C. Rich proudly introduces three Zoltan Bathory
Signature ASM model guitars. Each reflects Zoltan’s
specific technical requirements and keen design
aesthetics. From the 251/2" scale length and
Floyd Rose® Original Tremolo systems to the
“Standing Lion” inlay and neck-through construction,
each of these new models will go a long way to bring
out the best in any player.
Zoltan Bathory Signature ASMsB.C. Rich Zoltan Bathory Signature ASM models feature the dynamic tone and responsive touch that Zoltan demands. This comes from a combination of classic B.C. Rich neck-through construction, 255/8" scale length, Rockfield® Mafia™ pickups, Floyd Rose® Original tremolo units and a host of other small details. Now, you can get the very same guitar specs as Zoltan, even if you’re not a Rock Star … yet.

B.C. Rich Handcrafted Guitars
In 1969, B.C. Rich Guitars was launched by Bernardo Chavez Rico as a true Custom Shop. Bernie’s goal was to build innovative new guitar designs of the highest-possible quality while offering players a vision of the future. Now, 40 years later these same standards guide every instrument coming from the B.C. Rich Custom Shop. Featuring skilled handcraftsmanship, the finest tone woods, unique electronics and stunning finishes, each Custom Shop B.C. Rich guitar is nothing less than a work of art. OK, LOUD art!

When Kerry King picks up his axe, these are two of the distinctive B.C. Rich weapons he reaches for. The hand painted graphics are a highlight of these unique guitars. A tribal pattern inspired by Kerry’s own tattoos overlays realistic leaping flames that extend over the sides of these Speed Vs. As with all B.C. Rich Handcrafted guitars, all the goods are specified by the artist, which means that all the equipment that assists Kerry in creating his signature tone is present: EMG® 81/85 active pickups, PA2 pre amp, and a Kahler® 2315 Tremolo. If you must play the closest thing to what Kerry King plays, these are for you.
Chuck Schuldiner was an incredible guitarist - period. The B.C. Rich Custom Shop is handcrafting a replica of Chuck’s Stealth as a way to let the world discover the incredible talent that he shared with this earth for such a short time. A portion of proceeds goes directly to the family of Chuck Schuldiner.
