The Same - Just Better

Want a Better Guitar? Buy It From Richards Guitars - If you are serious about the guitar please do find the time to read this. I promise you that anyone offering you next day delivery are not offering what we do!

Behind every guitar sold is our meticulous quality control and personalized setup service. We literally leave no stone unturned. From geometric to cosmetic - every aspect is checked and adjusted as necessary...

We want your guitar to INSPIRE you.

In this first video I introduce you to a customers guitar which is about to go into our workshop for setup and I show you just how many modifications and improvements will be made to the guitar.

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
Pickups need to be balanced and adjusted accordingly for the optimum output. The height of the strings on an acoustic will effect the overal tone and volume. The break angle of string over saddle will also effect the volume, tone and energy that remains in the string. A poorly cut nut will sap tone and can cause various rattles and buzzes.

Feel Better
Mass produced guitars always suffer to a varying degree from sharp burs on the edges of the frets where they have been cut off in production. By spending time "softening" these edges it makes a massive difference to the feel of the guitar. From a sharp, scratchy feel when moving your hand up and down the fretboard to a guitar that feels like it has been played in for years.

Play Better
It is rare that there isn't a marked improvement on the playability of a guitar once it has been through our workshop. No matter what you pay whether it be £119 or £1119 every instrument new or used leaves our workshop fit to be played by beginner or professional. Of course, if you have a preference then the guitar will be setup to play just how you like it. I want the guitar to play like your guitar.

Stay In Tune - Longer
A bold claim? Not really! We pay close attention to the nut of the guitar by default when setting up our guitars. If the nut is cut too tight on the strings then they pinch (that clicky sound when you tune or detune). The clicking noise is the sound of the string pinging into position. In other words it is not moving freely so when you go to tune your guitar it will be at one pitch but when you bend the string or use the tremolo the string "pings" into its actual pitch - now out of tune! People blame the tremolo for poor tuning on guitars but it is actually usually the nut which is to blame.

Look Better
Thats right! Our guitars even look better than guitars bought from any other store!! A visual check is made on every guitar. We are always looking for cosmetic issues and will take the price into account. I have rejected "flame top" guitars with not enough flame, guitars with poorly aligned inlays, buff marks, dinks and dents - most scenarios have occurred over the years - all rejected on behalf of the customer. On guitars which may have been poorly buffed at the factory we even have a T-Cut which helps remove excess scratching to give surfaces like black gloss a wonderful pristine sheen. Every guitar we sell is polished of course and the only dust you will see on the guitar will have landed on it from the box we put it in for packing!

Very good quality guitar for the money and, excellent service from Richard’s team in restringing and setup.

Great Value

I bought this as a first guitar for my daughter. I also requested that the guitar be provided with 10s for playability and would accept a little loss in tone. The guitar duly came with 10s and the action was setup very nicely.
The build quality is very, very good and the matt finish is extremely nice. The guitar chimes beautifully and has a very nice brightness to it in both strumming and finger picking. Playability is very good, especially with the 24.75in scale length.
My only complaint is the slight buzz on the G# (1st string, 16th fret) and D# (2nd string, 16th fret). The 17th fret might need a little taking-down a hair.
I contacted the guys at the shop and we'll see how it settles over the next few weeks.
In truth, it should not be an issue as my daughter is very unlikely to play that high up. I just happened to hit it as a couple of pieces I played on it, got up there.

Hi Anthony! Thank you so much for your feedback. We're thrilled to hear that you and your daughter are enjoying the guitar. We appreciate your patience with the slight buzz issue, and we'll make sure to address it for you. With regard to your surprise in it not being noticed, I just wanted to provide some perspective from our side and certainly in no way to excuse or diminish your experience!! I just have to for your sake and ours :) Its possible you know this - so apologies if I am in any way teaching you how to suck eggs! When a low action is requested for ease of play this puts greater pressure in areas of 'tolerance' with far less tolerance for any kind of movement / change which can be due to so many factors (environmental / playing / string wear / delivery). So that is one aspect - but also when you then add lighter strings this makes the issue with tolerances even greater as light strings are much more 'whippy' and they resonant with a wider arc up and down. Finally - the area in which you will always find a problem - if one is going to exist is bang on where you located it - across all frets. So our role - the techs role - is to give you what you want and balance that against the issues with tolerances and what is possible - and what MAY occur as a result depending on a range of factors in the future. Bottom line - A low action with thin strings = greater likelihood of buzzing in the position you refer to. This certainly doesnt mean it left like this or wasnt noticed. OK - So with all that said the good news is you have our 100% support on any issue - any changes - anything whatsoever you need in the future and armed with the information above expectations can be maintained and you can decide accordingly what you want us to do. Moving to 11s will give you improved tone but yes... a little heavier on the fingers but will make the strings tighter - will help the geometry and less likely to buzz. In fact its something that may or may not work even by changing them at home. The action will raise but could be just a tiny amount - enough to have no buzzing - better tone - and a more realistic overall acoustic playing experience for the longer term. Anyway..... I am really waffling now!!!! Basically - I am just saying there are many ways we can all approach how we help your daughter in the medium and long term. Hope all that helps and doesnt just sound like I am trying to 'defend a failing' - as I promise I am not - I thought it would be useful to mention it :) Once again thank you SO much for trusting in our service and as you know we are here for you at any time you should need us.

Beautiful tone, incredible build quality!

Another incredible guitar received from Richard and his team! Set up beautifully, plays like a dream. Makes my beginner level playing sound wonderful! Lovely bright sounding tone, incredible build quality, and a smaller size which fits me perfectly.

Highly recommended purchase, combined with perfect customer service all the way through.

Hello Richard, This is not

Hello Richard,
This is not a complaint,it is more of an observation regarding my recent transaction with you.
Having seen "You Tube" promoting your goods I decided to purchase from you. I decided on a Cort Luce acoustic,
After waiting a while it was delivered,the guitar looked
amazing, however after a couple of days I noticed a very annoying flat spot on the fifth fret of the G string,
I contacted the shop and one of your staff suggested I
get an allen key and give it a few turns anti clock wise,
not aving an allen key it was decided to return the guitar. A couple of days later the guitar was returned
with a short email saying there was no problem.
Yet, it was evident that the flat spot was still there.
To the rescue came Sophie, she suggested another guitar, the Eastman PCH 01.I also ordered a hard case to be sent with it, the Eastman arrived minus hard case, called the shop again, confusion seemed to seize your staff as to what happened to the case, surely it would have made sense to put them both together.
Again Sophie was there to make some sense of what
was happening,after acouple of weeks I decided to buy the hard case locally,
I have to say that in spite of of all the confusion Sophie was the one who kept me informed, her cheerful disposition throughout ,and her hard work in dealing with difficult situations that were not in her department, are a credit to your store.
would I use Richards Guitars again? --Yes, I hope my next purchase to be another but quite expensive Eastman . I realize that even the best run companies
can get the odd thing wrong,I may be the one in a thousand cutomer who expierienced this.
If you do read this Richard you may not realise what
Sophie does above and beyond her job,if you do then
I hope you tell her so.She is the front window to your
company.
Best Regards, Cliff Singleton.

Pickin' and a Grinnin'

I cannot fault the service I received from Richard and his excellent team. My Eastman PCH 1 arrived expertly packed and set up really well.
As a first time buyer of a guitar over the internet I was quite anxious about the whole experience. Thanks to Richard's YouTube videos my fears were greatly reduced.
I would have no hesitation in ordering another guitar from Richard whatsoever. First class service and a first class team!
Many thanks
David

Eastman PCH1-OM

Beautiful guitar and absolutely amazing for the price. A great first guitar. I'm blown away by it as Richard said I would be. I'm indebted to Richard and Jon for their patient advice and wisdom and for only selling guitars they believe in. Buying from them has been a wonderful experience, one that I hope to repeat if I ever want another guitar.

My new guitar

Beautifully set up and the personal recommendation to buy this guitar was very helpful

EASTMAN PCM-1 OM ACCOUSTIC GUITAR

I am very pleased with this guitar. Looks well set up and exactly what I expected from Richard. The packaging and delivery was excellent.

Kev from Chesterfield Derbyshire

I have just brought a brand new Eastman guitar and it is fabulous. Just what I wanted. The sound is perfect. I would highly recommend Richards Guitars.

Eastman PH-01

This a very good guitar. It has a good tone, bright but also with guts. Not guts like a dread of course but it has enough for me. The quality of finish is superb and the dynamic response is great. It plays and sounds like a guitar worth 3 times the money. Richard had the guitar set up for my specifications. Low action, no fret buzz. By the way, In the past, I have owned £1000 guitars. No... I'm not saying I'm an expert but I am saying that after owning more expensive guitars, this one rivals if not beats.

What an absolute stunner!

Eastman's Juliet felt "right" from the moment I picked it up. It arrived perfectly set up from Richards Guitars - and still in tune(!) despite changes of temperature and being bounced around by the courier. It's just about my ideal electric guitar - so comfortable and accurate to play, with beautifully articulate pickups and a very stable Bigsby to add subtle shimmers. It has a totally unique vibe all of its own which I really like, and yet it feels like a guitar that I've played for years and is a trusted go-to instrument.

My dream fulfilled

I wanted this guitar for 18 months before I ordered it. It’s not super-expensive but getting it to Australia really jacks up the cost. It was absolutely worth it though! I’ve already recorded my new single with the guitar. It’s great!

Puts a smile on my face!

My second guitar from Richards Guitars and I couldn’t be more delighted. I wanted a good quality guitar for everyday gigging. My trusty Yamaha APX500iiEW is a great workhorse but lacked the tone I wanted.
My Auden Chester Neo 45 is too good to be used on the road. The LAG T70 ACE fitted the bill perfectly. The clarity and brightness of sound from the spruce top is just what I wanted at an affordable price. The staff at Richards Guitars know their stuff and never try to “up-sell” they just want you to get the guitar that is perfect for your needs and budget. Many thanks to Jon and Jake.

Richards Guitars Service is Impeccable

I am extremely happy with my Danelectro DC59, Richards Guitars really do pay attention to detail regarding the setup of the instrument. The guitar arrived well packaged and was really well set up to the point where it was a joy to play. I will definitely be using Richards Guitars for future purchases, it really is worth the wait to receive a guitar that has been given the care and attention it needs before being shipped out.

The overall buying experience was much better than I had experienced from many of the faceless box shifters that dominate the U.K guitar marketplace.

I cant thank Richard and his team enough for such an amazing instrument and the Danelectro DC59 is no exception it resonates beautifully and I was also impressed with the decent build quality.

The Danelectro DC59 is a phenomenal guitar at this price point. Richards Guitars unique service and pre-shipping set up is the icing on the cake.

Thank you ever so much for a very special instrument that feels so good to play and will be treasured going forward.

Guitar Purchase from Richards Guitars

Hi To Jake and Richard, would just like to thank you both for the service provided by your business. I purchased a Dowina Rosewood GAC Swiss Moon Spruce top acoustic guitar. I travelled from London to make the purchase. Jake set up Seven different model choices for me to try with no rush to get the job done or myself to make a decision. Very enjoyable afternoon with Jake chatting guitars and trying them all out. To be honest I would have been happy to go home with any One of the Seven, But managed to make a decision on the Dowina GAC guitar. It was set up and fitted with an LR Baggs Anthem and it plays and sounds wonderful. The guitar has done Two gig events so far and has been noted at both events. How good the guitar sounded and the fact that they did not recognize the make of Dowina. All have been very impressed and so am I. Again thank you for your patience Jake, much appreciated. I cant recommend highly enough. Regards Keith P.S I will be back!

Fantástica guitarra. Muy buen trabajo del equipo de Richard Guitars

Muy buena comunicación con el equipo de Richard Guitars. Inicialmente solicité el modelo E30ME. Durante el traslado a la tienda de Londres la guitarra sufrió un desperfecto, por lo que me ofrecieron un descuento en este modelo Deluxe. Acepté y no puedo estar más contento. El único problema (culpa mía) fue el pago de impuestos y aranceles cuando el paquete llegó a España por proceder de fuera de la unión europea.
Pero la guitarra es perfecta. Muy buena puesta a punto por parte del equipo. Acabados muy buenos. El Ovangkol luce precioso y el sonido que emite la guitarra es fantástico.
Muy contento con la compra.

Dowina Walnut Spruce OM

OMG by name and OMG indeed. This is a perfect guitar. It feels as if it has been made just for me. It plays beautifully, the sound is crisp yet not shrill - it has a lovely almost bell like quality. It doesn't get muddy even with my inexpert playing. It is comfortable and easy to play. The customer service was exceptional - in the end I was not able to come to Stratford but Jake answered all my questions and I feel that I have received exactly what I could have hoped for. As well as playing like a dream it looks lovely and the finishing touch of the luthier's signature under the soundboard makes it feel so personal. Now I just have to live up to this lovely guitar. Thank you to all at Richard's guitars.

For me - there is no difference between "personal" and "business" life - It is all "my life". Interconnected and therefore highly personal. Every guitar I sell (EVERY) is one I can tell you the backstory - about the people who make them - the ethos of the brand and how they align with my own - they are a genuine personal recommendations based on 28 years in the industry.

With the industry dominated by marketing, hype, and "blinkered" brand loyalty - retailers focus on what they get asked for - with little effort in raising awareness of guitars that are better than the one you asked about. This leads to a lot of poor buying decisions!

Here is a quick introduction to the brands I often refer to as "my babies" but really you could simply refer to them as "benchmarks". Check the prices - check the specs - check the quality and back story - and find me a brand that does it better - or even close. The fact is you cant buy a bad guitar from Richards Guitars - you will only find the best - set up to your personal requirements.

Furch Changed Everything...

I introduced Furch to to the UK over 20 years ago - with my good friend Keith Twine who has since retired.

At the time I was a leading supplier of brands such as Gibson, Martin & Taylor. Experiencing Furch guitars made me realize there is what you "know" and what you "should know". Just because you DON'T - doesn't mean it doesn't exist!

What does all this mean? Forget what you think you know and open your mind to the possibility that you can find better - and we will guarantee you an experience you will never forget - with help from Furch and my other personal finds from over the decades.

Locking tuners don't fit

String broke after 3 days. Ordered locking tuners. wouldn't fit it because of the silver things inside the head stock holes. Do you know any locking tuner brands that will fit it. I had to bring it to local shop to get restringed I don't do standard tuning only locking. Apart from that a great guitar

Hi there, thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the locking tuners not fitting on your Vintage V100AFD Electric Guitar.
