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?

It is impossible to check intonation accurately with old strings. Past 2 Years Of Customers (Image only shows some of the UK!)

- Empowering Apps
HIT THE PERFECT BEAT
Getting the right timing is crucial for every guitar player. With the Tempo App, you could simply scroll or tap-tempo to set BPM and choose from four click sounds that bring an all-new experience each time.
5 MODES
Each mode in the Practice App offers real-time feedback, analysing your rhythm accuracy, note velocity and interval speed, and displaying them in a detailed practice report.
CAPTURE YOUR IDEAS, BIG OR SMALL
When inspiration strikes, grab it! The Recorder App lets you capture your ideas before they slip away. It also filters ambient noise and only records the crystal-clear sound of your playing.
4-MASS TECHNOLOGY
The 4-MASS design in BLUE LAVA enhances vibrations of the guitar top, back, side, and neck, delivering full and balanced tones.
The reinforced internal structure extends low frequency vibration towards the end of the soundbox and makes broader space for high frequency vibration around the soundhole.
INTRINSIC CRAFTSMANSHIP
To bring the innovative design of BLUE LAVA into mass-production, we designed over 80% of all machines and forging tools specifically for BLUE LAVA.
HPL TECHNOLOGY
HPL stands for High Pressure Laminate. It is a type of composite material that withstands temperatures from -4℉ to 122℉ and humidity from 10% to 90%. With the HPL built body, BLUE LAVA TOUCH is lightweight, weatherproof, and easy to maintain.
BLUE LAVA FOR THE BLUE PLANET
Optimizing material use and production techniques remains our key focus throughout. We replaced wood with recyclable HPL to reduce deforestation and manufactured our products through automatic production lines to prevent industrial waste. This makes BLUE LAVA friendly to the environment while maintaining high performance.
EASY FOR BEGINNERS
BLUE LAVA TOUCH is intuitive to use and friendly to guitar players of all levels. The introduction of the Practice app makes BLUE LAVA TOUCH even much friendlier to beginners. It features 5 practice modes: chord transition, strumming, scale training, ear training, and single note. Whichever mode players choose, the Practice app uses sound detection technology to detect accuracy and stability and offers relevant guidance. It also generates a detailed report after each practice that players can analyse and make concerted training plans according to their performances. Unique effects and grooves are also built in the BLUE LAVA TOUCH that learners don’t need to make extra purchases on guitar gear like effect and loop pedals or spend extra time learning how to use them with guitar.
CHARGING
BLUE LAVA TOUCH will be 100% full in around 6 hours of charging on the AirFlow Charger. After reaching 95% battery level in the first 5 hours, the charging circuits will go into protection mode and reduce current, requiring 1 more hour to make it 100% full.
