$80 Warlock Play Test

[LiveeviL2000]

This thing sounds mean.
I tuned it drop B.
The guy had the nut filed to accept construction cables for strings. So I put a set of 11s in there with a beef .54 low E.
This thing sounds beastly in the room.
I had to give it the Motley Crue test.

Just goes to show ya it dont have to cost 10 grand to have a good sounding guitar.Im also a Motley Crue fan too.

For $80 it sounds like $1800!

It does have some cosmetic issues and the frets are worn.
The stock BCR pups are monsters. But my experience is, these pups are hit or miss and these things are a home run hit!

The intonation is perfect. Not one cent off on any of the strings.
The action is really sweet and on a greasy fast neck.

I can’t wait to refinish this thing. Give it a paint job fitting of a shredder like this.

Congratulations @LiveeviL2000 !!
SCORE!!
HNGD!!

There's 1 at the Pawn Shop here.
Black with White // Grey stickers that somewhat mimic the body shape.
All the corners have paint missing and a chip or so missing from each bottom horn.
Very noticeable just looking at it.
They are " Asking " $355.
He said "Stranger Things " has driven up the prices for these.
I am glad to see you found a very nice one!!

The Stranger Things wave died out.
During that whole craze. I was buying Warlocks up at around $150-$250 each. Repainting them black and red crackle and selling them at $700-$750. When I was done with them. That finish was better than factory. The clear I used was automotive grade and will last a lifetime.

Right now depending on condition, you can get a really nice one for about $400-$450.

Bronze series with the points busted up go for around $150-$250.

Look around FB market. You can find some there for better than that pawn shop.

I agree, BCR pickups are the best brand stock pickups for metalheads anyhow. Some of them just sound great!
