• I brought in a Fender Squire and a Hohner RP250 that had seen better days and were in need of minor repairs and some TLC. I was really impressed with Richy, he was completely transparent about the timeframe and cost of the work. When an … read more additional issue arose, the communication on the additional work was very clear. The guitars not only look beautiful, they're playing like new as well. On top, he's a super nice guy. I'll definitely recommend to all my guitar playing friends.

• 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!

• I have a Fender Strat that was losing playability, had buzzing frets and failing electronics. I thought it would need a re-fret or at least a fret dress but fortunately once honest Richy had made several adjustments it needed neither and … read more it plays better than the day I purchased it! Richy also fixed a whammy bar issue I had as part of the set-up service; you pay a fantastic price for what you get. I’ve found my guitar guy and my guitars will be going back yearly for their TLC.
