About Bernie Rico Jr Guitars:  Bernie Rico Jr is the son of world famous Bernie Rico Sr, the founder of B.C. Rich guitars.  Bernie Jr worked side by side with his father for decades learning the craft of building true handmade, custom guitars using the his father's belief in the heeless neck-thru construction. Shortly after Bernie's fathers passing in 1998, Bernie Jr discontinued his association with B.C. Rich guitars and started his own guitar company, Bernie Rico Custom Handmade Guitars.  Bernie Jr carries on his father's tradition with extreme pride and care and has taken his father's original ideas of innovation to another level with is unique guitar designs such as the Jekyll, Vixen, Hyde and Diva.  Handmade quality, attention to detail and superior service are the hallmarks of Bernie Rico Jr guitars.  Nothing plays or feels like a Rico Jr.

About this *3rd EVER* Rico Custom DIVA:   Bernie delivers to the guitar marketplace the most AMAZING 'offset' V guitar imaginable!  A twist on the Vixen - the Diva offers an even more aggressive stance with a slighter smaller body.   The Diva provides a better feel and a better level of player 'comfort' as opposed to the Jackson offset V guitar.  The Diva's lower bout is not as 'short' as the Jackson and does not tend to push through the players legs.  The Rico Jr Diva hangs perfectly off the neck - plays fast - looks amazing and most importantly - is hand built from the ground up to SOUND they way a great custom guitar should.

CNC machines have their place in good guitar building.  But not with the Rico Jr Custom Handmade guitars.  All of Bernie's USA Custom Handmade guitars are TRULY handmade.  And this custom DIVA is no exception.  This ***3rd EVER*** Rico DIVA is hand built from the first saw cut to the final buffing and hardware installation.  There is simply nothing like it!

About Boogie Street Guitars:  Pittsburgh guitar enthusiast Eric McKenna founded Boogie Street Guitars in late 1998.  Eric's original idea of exclusive on-line marketing coupled with the industry's finest customer service remain intact today. In 2003, Eric entered into an agreement with Washbrurn guitars to help create unique and custom guitar both in the USA and Import genres.  Working closely with Washburn artists such as KISS legend Paul Stanley, Black Label Society guitarist Nick Catanese and Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian to name a few, BSG carved out it's very special niche in the guitar marketplace.  In 2007, Eric welcomed Bernie Rico Jr to the BSG family.  Currently Eric & Bernie are diligently working on Rico Jr custom guitars with truly spectacular & unique specs and stylings.  BSG customers and friends, known as the 'BSG Family', congregate at the BSG forum - The BoogieBoard - and daily share in what is affectionately called 'The Boogie Street Experience'.   In 10 years, BSG has grown from a used and vintage online guitar dealer to one the guitar industry's true success stories.

 Boogie Street thanks the wonderful eBay community for making our first 10 years on ebay so enjoyable!  eBay continues to be a significant part of Boogie Street's marketing and it remains so because of all the wonderful people - all over the world -  we have been fortunate enough to meet and work with with over the years!
