the hybrids arnt

QUOTE
The initial woodwork is done with CNC precision machining under the strict supervision of Koreas finest guitar builders. Each Hybrid instrument must prove to meet very high standards set by Bernie Rico Jr. in order to pass quality control inspection and become a Rico Jr. Hybrid instrument.


QUOTE
Upon arrival at the CustomShop Bernie Rico Jr. assembles and sets up your new Hybrid with the same setup tactics and fierce concentration on perfection that he does with any fine custom made instrument carrying his name.

I've seen Rico's on e-bay that hav been imported BUT it's just the body. I belive they are al painted in the US set up here as well. I could be wrong but i'm sure that's what i read.

It would be quite far actually. Atleast a 10-12 hour drive then I would have to pay the border guards taxes and all this its really difficult these days.

So only black and red bolero's, imperials, cavallo's etc will be shipped thus far? So no cavallo AB hard tails yet? I know the cavallo AB comes in black but I don't think its matte black.

Nice. My Radioactive/Nuclear will hopefully be next .....Has anyone seen the BoP cases yet??? A pic would be cool.. nuke.gif
darkentity
And how about the other graphics Thoracic X, Splatter? How long until you ship those?

i see what you mean but i really dislike the new headstock the W shaped one ... it puts me off the whole guitar aesthetically

You know the kv5 is like 1500+ USD eh? Compared to the 799-879$ venom. It's 963GB in the UK so idk if it is really a fair comparison you know. The venom being 829GB

I'm really curious to see how many have the original V headstock. There were some pics posted about a month and a half ago of some of the Premier Series being built and even then all of the necks in the photos had the W headstock.

You know if they just put a clear gloss finish on one of these venom guitars, it would look amazing eh.

Do you have the other kinds of darkside at the headquaters as well?
AxAxSxS
Wow! great news! does that mean the my watchers venom will be close behind? I am allready gone to Iraq, but would still like to have the wife take some pics of/with it for me when it gets there.
GregCrowe
Check out this pic I found.



I'm assuming these are imports since they don't have the cutout for the floating logo and they don't have ebony boards. From these pics, apparently there are some original headstock Cavalos out there somewhere.



These are supposedly import Venoms. So far I have not seen an import original headstock Venom or Bird of Prey other than the 2 NAMM protos that The Music Farm is selling.

Looks like a wait for that model but I don't know for sure.

Welcome to this side of the forum. Saw a post by you on the otherside, when there was another side.
