Prices shown online are what we call "Vintage Direct" service. Our new superfast delivery service that enables us to give you the very best price you will find in the UK. If the price isn't as cheap as our cheapest UK competitor, please click on the price match button and we will adjust it for you.
For many years I have been highlighting the inspiring nature of Vintage guitars, and I was desperate to continue to give my customers access to a brand I have cherished for decades, whilst embracing the current economic challenges for many who are buying at this price point.
Vintage Guitars who appreciate what we do here have come to my rescue - enabling me to provide 2 different styles of service for customers depending on their requirements / budget.
Ordering online will ensure you get the very best UK price on Vintage Guitars Brand - delivered as soon as is physically possible. We have the guitar delivered directly by Vintage guitars - We continue to offer you a full 6 and 12 month check and reset completely free of charge (not by mail - only in person) and we are also here as normal to help with any aspect of your order.
If you are unhappy with the guitar when it arrives, it will be collected by Vintage Guitars themselves and another delivered and rest assured Vintage Guitars have promised me if on the unlikely event the first isn't to standard - the second most certainly will - ALL in the price - at the cheapest price in the UK.
Hopefully this will come as welcome news for anyone who wants to buy a Vintage Guitar Brand at the best UK price - but STILL backed up by what I hope you'd agree as being one of the most dedicated specialists in the Country.

I've left giving feedback for a couple of weeks in order to properly review this guitar. It's so easy to mistake the initial feeling of excitement and joy for objective truth!
But honestly, each time I pick this Dowina Paduak GAc up, it continues to offer up its distinctive sound and leaves you in bliss. The Cedar top and open pore back and sides Padauk provide a perfectly balanced tone across the frequencies and across the strings. Neither too boomy nor too brittle. No matter what chord you are playing, or whether finger picking up and down the neck, each string, each note is present. Only your hand position controls the tone.
The ebony fretboard is as smooth as the the proverbial and gliding up and down is a breeze. Each note is true, even at the 14th fret.
The setup is perfect. The people at Richard's Guitars have done a professional job. Action, tuning, neck - absolutely 1st class.
It took two visits to choose this guitar. Jake made sure there were similar models as well as different sounding instruments in order to make fair comparison. Some of the other makers were very tempting - Auden and Furch, for example.
Richards Guitars - and Jake - provide a very comfortable, personal space in order to allow you to test the guitars and their unhurried attitude made it possible for me to finally choose my Dowina Padauk GAc.
I cannot praise Richards Guitars and Jake (and Jon) highly enough. They really do what they claim on their website -provide a superior professional service rooted in their own knowledge and enthusiasm for great sounding instruments.
Thank you.
A Great, natural sounding pickup. The chaps at Richards Guitars fitted this beautifully to my Dowina GAc and it takes nothing away from the aesthetics of the guitar. The sound is very natural. I have tested this through a variety of amps and processors, from inexpensive busking amps to higher end stage PA. I have tested it dry through the PA desk as well as through a pedalboard with a smidgen of reverb and chorus. The sound remains natural and acoustic. It simply amplifies the natural sound of your acoustic guitar rather than electrify it. Tone control is - despite everything positive - very basic. You could call it moving from bass to treble, or from Dull to bright. However, on a high end acoustic, this high end pickup should not need to be adjusted more than a few cents here and there anyway. It sounds perfect right in the middle zone.
Very happy with this pickup and if you have used cheaper pickups which you thought "did the job", as I have done, you will be mightily surprised.
A great choice.
