BC Rich WMD Widow 5 String Bass
From the body, made of eastern mahogany, to the maple neck, to the widow style head stock, this black (onyx) widow is designed to do as much damage as the real spider variety. Black chrome hardware and adjustable stop, along with two volume and two tone controls make this the model of the present and the future. Two P style pickups of the active EQ variety and 24 jumbo frets make it easy pickings, but that's the only thing you're going to find about the Widow that's non-aggressive.
The BC Rich WMD Widow 5-string is built to last and its also built to put out some serious low end sound. With the Grover rotomatic tuners added to the solid construction of the neck, the BC WMD Widow five string base is the weapon of mass destruction that it is named for. The BC Rich was the first bass to be topped with the widow style head. It was ahead of it's time back then, and remains so today. The Widow offers you the right sound at the right price.
Aggressive type styling and and incredible sound make this the perfect instrument to pound out the bass for any style music. The BC Rich Widow is all the bass you're ever going to need. The only question remaining is, are you brave enough to play around with the widow?

Armed with fat sounding P-style pickups, active electronics, Grover Rotomatic tuners and solid neck-through construction there is no mistaking this Weapon of mass Destruction! Neck-Through Construction B.C. Rich is known as one of the pioneers in Neck Through construction. They utilize it on many of their guitars, because it provides the best possible sustain, resonance, comfort and access to higher frets. Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high end guitars. This construction starts with a long piece (or pieces) of premium North American maple. That piece runs from the tip of the headstock to the strap button on the opposite end of the guitar. This means that the headstock, fingerboard, pickups and bridge all are mounted to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear. The neck-through construction also allows us to cut away more of the body and neck at the neck joint which provides comfort that no bolt-on or set-neck could offer. You will find the neck through feature on all of our top of the line B.C. Rich models. B.C. Rich Bass Pickups All B.C. Rich imported bass guitars are equipped with either passive or active EQ B.C. Rich bass pickups. The passive versions are black P style pickups and have open face pole pieces. These factory B.C. Rich pickups give a good solid response across the bass spectrum eliminating unwanted muddy undertones. The B.C. Rich active EQ bass pickups are still P style, but they have a black sealed smooth top. With the active EQ circuit (9 volt battery required), the clarity and attack are boosted. The center detent tone pots give the player a wider range of sweeping tone control to provide the maximum low end clarity and power. Beveled Top Most of B.C. Rich body styles employ a beveled edge around the shape. In many ways bevels on a top are similar to facets on a cut stone. They catch the light and reflect at different angles giving the instrument more of a three dimensional look. Some of the B.C. Rich top bevels are extreme and wide while others are subtle and narrow. Occasionally the shape of the instrument is accented by painting the bevels a contrasting color.
