DescriptionFormed in 1981 in Huntington Park, California, Slayer was founded by guitarists Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman. The band became known as one of the "Four Horsemen of the Thrash Metal Apocalypse" along with Anthrax, Megadeth, and Metallica. This B.C. Rich Warlock was owned by Kerry King and used by him during Slayer’s performances on the OzzFest Tour in 2004.

This guitar was acquired directly from Kerry King, and he describes it in his own words, “This Warlock, or ‘Wartribe,’ as I call them, is also known as the 'Firetribe' because the graphic kinda looks like tribal fire. This guitar was used during Ozzfest 2004.”
