Anyone have any experience with "Richards Guitars"?

They're local to me.

 

It's quite a quirky little place because their USP is not selling the common stuff.

 

There are no new Squiers, Epiphones, Fenders or Gibsons in there. Instead you find stuff like Danelectros and Guild along with various boutique electrics and quite a big acoustic section, again not from the usual subjects.

 

They do have basses but it's not a huge selection. They're only 15 to 20 mins from Bass Direct and Bass Bros so it's possible that's a deliberate choice to not try to compete with 2 of the most prominent bass places in the country.

 

The shop is by appointment only.

 

I've never bought from them but I did take a couple of skinny stringers in for some maintenance and a set up at the end of last year which was largely arranged by email, I think we maybe had one phone conversation. The whole process was smooth and I was very happy with the results.

 

All in all they've got a very good reputation locally. I'm currently in the market for a baritone guitar and I'll certainly be popping in to check out Dano stuff and whatever else they've got and will happily give them my money should I like what I find.
