Hello, i am new here and do not speak czech language.
I am searching for a long time to the name and the location of the czech company / manufacturer who produces the Calibre series for BC Rich.
I plan to make business with my own electric guitars and do not want the production in Asia. I got sample guitars from several asian manufacturers and the quality and communication was very disappointing! A lot of money for nothing :evil:
I have a Warlock Calibre and i am very happy with the guitar and the quality in general. I had Jolana and Furch guitars in my hands and think that in the Czech Republic are excellent guitar builder and manufacturer. Also Kramer, Epiphone and others let build guitars in czechoslovakia.

So if anyone know something about the name and the location or contact address please let me know.

Thank you for all informations and greetings from Austria, Ivenstein

Yes, that's the one. These guitars are built in Hořovice. I'm not sure if Epiphone still uses the factory to build their guitars but they definitely have in the past. Good luck with your guitar business, there's never too many honest manufacturers who pay attention to quality. :)

Epiphone does not get their guitars built there any more. But AFAIK, i.e. Hagstrom does.

thank you guys for this valuable informations. I try to get in contact with NBE and let you know about all future activities.
@ pbla4024: thank you for the link
@ torchie!: thank you. I want to make quality guitars and not cheap asian crap. There are too many companies who do this but i want to make better qualitiy and made in europe i always prefer ;-)
@ Bummer: Kramer, Dean, Epiphone ... let build guitars at Bohemia Musico-Delica Plant in the late 80s and beginning 90s. You are right, Hagstrom, VGS and some others let build guitars there now.

Btw, you can check a photo-report of NBE from our user (and luthier) tomaskra here: http://www.originalkytary.estranky.cz/clanky/NBE.html It's in Czech but at least you'll see some realistic pics from the shop and eventually you can use Google Translate to get to text to English or German :wink:

Anyway, it would be nice if you let us know how it all goes :)
