• Richy is great. I recently bought a 1974 Fender strat, beautiful guitar, but it definitely needed some work. I had no idea what to do here so was recommended Richy.
  I dropped it off and then picked it up after a couple of weeks and it … read more plays absolutely amazingly. New frets, new nut, and a full setup. Richy kept me in the loop and made sure I was ok with the price of work that needed doing which I thought was nice.
  It plays absolutely perfectly, wouldn't change a thing about it!
  Richy also prices super fairly, I can tell a lot of work went into it, and the price is totally reasonable.
  If you have a guitar that needs work, and you are in or around London, you gotta go to Richy's Guitars!

• As crazy as it can sound, finding a good luthier is hard in London, tried few of them and I was never happy with the results, feel like they don’t spend enough time to understand the needs of each person. Richy did an amazing job setting … read more up my guitar, perfectly setup the way I wanted, in no time.

• Richy is amazing! I managed to break a string on my acoustic and he was kind enough to replace the string for absolutely no charge! Awesome guy and cannot recommend him enough!

• Just got my Gretsch electromatic hollow-body back from Richy’s guitar spa and hospital (it went in for a refit of the input jack, which had fallen inside, and also replacing the stick pick-ups with TV Jones Powertrons for a bit more growl … read more and bite).
  Richy did the work expertly, and also recommended a set up and some adjustments to the bridge for intonation, and sorted out the action.
  The guitar now plays BEAUTIFULLY, and even with my horrible playing, sounds like a completely different instrument.
  I cannot praise Richy enough. If you have a guitar, take it along, and it will transform it for you!

  Really friendly and professional - I couldn't recommend highly enough. Cheers Richy!

• I brought Richy my Lakland 55-94 for a full setup and I'm delighted with the results; everything is absolutely spot on. Richy lowered the action so there's a lovely even tone and feel throughout the entire fretboard and the sound … read more has improved drastically. Richy is a really sound lad who is clearly very knowledgeable and conscientious in his work. This coupled with his incredibly reasonable prices mean I cannot recommend Richy highly enough, I'll definitely be back to him in the future.
