"Do you want to be the first to see what is behind the curtain?" B. C Rich asks you, the devoted internet fans of the luthier's wicked metal guitars and basses. "Get exclusive access to B. C. Rich new guitar for 2009," they continue, and then there's a button you can click which brings you to a sign-up page.

Yes, B. C. Rich loves you and requests your attendance at what is sure to be the NSFW internet-media event of 2009 with the biggest mix of Biches, Virgins and Warlocks this side of Heavy Metal magazine. While details are skimpy, a B. C. Rich press release does confirm that the following new models will be on display:

• New Special 40th Anniversary models
• New exciting models from the Handcrafted shop
• Four brand new Kerry King models
• A "BRAND NEW" B.C. Rich body shape
• The return of the Seagull, B.C. Rich's first body shape

If you want to be one of the "first" people to "get access" to these new models, you're going to have to RSVP. This is a Grand Unveiling, after all, and BC Rich needs to know how many surf n' turf (SnT) entrées to order. All you need to do is "log on" to the B.C. Rich website and "plu in" your name and email address before January 10th at midnight (EST). Every person who signs up by the deadline will be given "private access" to the Grand Unveiling on January 12th at 12:00 am (EST).
