Cant say I've ever seen one of these before, saw plenty of the non-japanese mockingbird copies and I suspect that to be a direct BC Rich Warlock copy from China.

A cheap Chinese copy of something.
Nothing to do with Westone, they just 'borrowed' the logo in the hope of ripping people off.

Gotta agree with this, lads; lighten up a little, eh; a genuine inquiry deserves a little more than "that's crap. move on!"
Now, I know that you're all just being tongue in cheek and aren't being quite as offhand as it would seem, but just because WE know that the Rich knock-offs being marketed as Westone aren't representative of the guitars made by Matsumoku and SLM, doesn't mean everyone else does, now does it?!

Re: Unknown westone guitar help!!!
My apologies to you huesmith. You have the misfortune of having a guitar with a body style I have never cottoned to... and generally speaking I am a fan of B.C. Rich offerings.
Please do not take offense at my comment. Stick around awhile and you will quickly realize I am somewhat the class clown 'round these pages.
A sincere welcome to you.

Yeah, my apologies to you huesmith.
I was trying to be cute and the remarks were directed more towards the membership than you personally. On reflection they were not appropriate.
I extend you a proper welcome, and please hang around and learn about these amazing Mats-made guitars and why we're so potty about them.

Re: Unknown westone guitar help!!!
So, what do you, the owner, think of it?
How did you acquire it? For what price?
Is there a good story behind this one?

Shoot, I didn't even realize you had one...
