BC Rich Assassin FX6

The BC Rich Assassin FX6 marks the return of the highly popular Assassin shape. The neck-through design of the FX6 ensures high levels of sustain, resonance and comfort but also allows more of the body to be cut away during construction, allowing easy access to the higher frets.

With a nato (eastern mahogany) body, neck and head-stock, ebony fingerboard (complete with abalone vine inlay) and multi-ply white and abalone perfling on the body, neck and head-stock. The body is finished with a flamed maple veneer, making the FX6 a fantastic looking guitar.

The high quality tone is created using superb Rockfield™ Mafia humbuckers and a Tune’O’Matic style, string-through bridge.

All in all, the BC Rich Assassin FX6 is an excellent quality guitar for a very affordable price.
