This second video shows the guitar going through the workshop process. This process takes around an hour but dont worry - its just highlights!
Its Not Always A Happy Ending
One of my favorite adverts was one by Honda which said at Honda they don't use the word "OK" and instead they use the phrase "What If". I LOVED that advert and found it so inspiring. This is the premise of every guitar setup we undertake. If that means rejecting guitars and starting again - that is exactly what we do.
No Time To Watch the Videos? Here Is the Summary...
If you have bought a guitar before you will know all too well that not every guitar feels or plays the same. You may also know that due to the nature of the major component of the guitar (wood) that they can feel great one moment and awful the next (say for example after traveling half way around the globe on a boat - from some factory in the far east to the UK!) Richards Guitars offers a unique service offering the more discerning/knowledgeable buyer a host of "players benefits" which will ensure that ANY guitar purchased will give you years of enjoyment - regardless of the price paid. I can demonstrate that a guitar purchased from Richards Guitars will... Sound Better Feel Better Play Better Stay In Tune - Longer Look Better Want more reasons to buy from Richards Guitars? After Sales support A second guitar setup to your new guitars standard for just £35 - Got a guitar at home that you think could be improved? Drop it in and we will do over £55 worth of work for just £35 6 & 12 month checks and "re-sets". A *FREE follow up service for any of my customers. We will ensure your guitar plays like the day it left our store (minus your own wear and tear of course!) saving you £££ on pricey guitar technicians bills. If we find any parts that are failing that are not due to normal wear and tear we will replace them free of charge! Over the past 20 years I have worked hand in hand with suppliers, reporting back with fault "trends" and ways to improve products supplied to us. Companys I have dealt with have been listening intently over the years and we know what value our input has brought to their brands. To summarise, a guitar supplied by Richards Guitars will not just feel like a new guitar, it will feel like YOUR guitar. * Due to the need to check your intonation & adjust accordingly you must bring in your guitar with BRAND NEW strings fitted (original guage as setup when sold) OR pay our technician to remove your old strings and fit new ones - guide price £16 including strings. It is impossible to check intonation accurately with old strings. Past 2 Years Of Customers (Image only shows some of the UK!) Every red marker represents someone who I have supplied a guitar to, possibly starting with guidance and advice online, telephone or in store. I have provided a guitar meticulously quality controlled and set up to their personal specification.

PICTURES ARE OF CEDAR TOPPED MODEL AS A PLACEHOLDER - The guitar is exactly the same but with Swiss Moon Spruce Top
The Dowina Rosewood is one of our customers most popular choices - understandably, as it combines beautiful rosewood back and sides with a choice of spruce or cedar top.
The Rosewood DLX brings together the highest quality rosewood - the concept initially inspired by a customer enquiry that was for rosewood - but he was aliment that he didnt want to pay for what he considered unnecessary frills but would pay whatever it took for the finest sounding rosewood!
I knew instantly Stan could help so thanks to his knowledge and expertise he selected us the finest pieces - whilst still keeping the prices as affordable as possible.
The irony is the customer who initially enquired never received his guitar as he didnt want to wait for it!!!!
The guitar was SO incredible - I made it a regular line exclusively made for Richards Guitars customers!! Whilst the customer never got to enjoy the fruits of his very high demands - You and I now can! Lifes balance as they say :)
The rosewood DLX comes with a choice of rosewood or flame maple binding - the rosewood binding gives a sleak and stylish - slightly more understated look whilst maybe the maple could be described as a little more "fancy"! Both - Gorgeous!
Stunning rosewood and abalone soundhole inlay is enough to give this guitar as much bling as necessary and I have kept the fretboard as minimalistic as possible which again I hope you agree is really beautiful.
The rosewood DLX is the very latest model and you will be assured that nobody else is out there with one as they are made exclusively for Richards Guitars customers!
Once again - I am so proud of this latest model! Thank you Dowina
