"Richards Top Recommendations": Electro Acoustic Guitars (From £200 to £3000) You HAVE To Try

Below, you will find the culmination of 30 years research - fine tuned to a list of my personal favorites.
Needless to say - any guitar on this list is a 100% bona fide benchmark at the price and will almost certainly provide you a better instrument - and cost you less -than what you THINK the benchmarks are (if you listen only to mainstream marketing and brand hype).
As one of the World's leading specialists in all the brands I supply - I could bore you to death about why these guitars are listed, have presented numerous videos on personal recommendations - and have many thousands of reviews from customers all around the World to back up my feelings.
  I hope you find this shortlist of value and that you use it as part of your research.
Want the "Best" Electro Acoustic Guitar? Check out my video on the subject which I hope helps in some way. I am available on live chat if you need me.
