A picture of Bruce Kulick with woodtop B.C.Rich Eagle. Also used this model in "Animalize" tour
Bruce Kulick mostly played this guitar during the Animalize Tour in Kiss. It was also stolen with the purple custom Charvel. The guitar had a single EMG 81 pickup (As seen up close in the photo) and Original Floyd Rose finished in black. Bruce said of this guitar on his official website brucekulick.com “My first tour with KISS “Animalize” started in 1984, continuing into 1985. One of the most featured guitars I performed with was a Blue Charvel made in San Dimas, CA. All Charvel guitars from this era were made to order. They had all the features to be a perfect fit for KISS in 1984. I found a blue San Dimas Charvel, used, right in the window of Sam Ash in NYC about a month before heading to Europe with the band.
In the new age of “Whammy Bar Super Strat” guitars, the Blue Charvel was amazing. It had an EMG pickup, a black Floyd Rose, a split coil switch, and featured a rosewood fingerboard, with a flame maple neck. The body, was a gorgeous blue finish. The logo on the headstock had gold lettering, and I believe it was built in 1983. Sadly it was stolen from the KISS warehouse in NYC around 1988.“

Guitars used by Paul Stanley on Animalize
B.C. Rich Warlock Cracked Mirror
Forgotten guitar! This is a new take on an old idea. Paul moved from Ibanez to Hamer to BC Rich I. The early 80's. This is his Warlock with the cracked mirror design. More rare than the original Iceman with the same finish. Even hard to find pics of it. Used mostly on the Animalize tour circa 84-85
