About Richwood

Volcano (same company as Richwood) are a relatively new name in the UK, but already they're making some serious waves in the industry. They're made in the far east (in the same factories as many major brands) where the materials are cheaper than chips, yet the level of quality is miles above that of any western country. For this reason, we decided to concentrate solely on selling Richwood Guitars, and also why we've never had anything but praise and astonishment at the quality of these awesome instruments.

Specifications

Anyway, thats enough babble....starting from the top, this half size guitar has an beautiful matt finish headstock, to which the 6 machineheads are attached. The bolt-on maple neck features a maple fingerboard containing 21 frets, with a scale length of 19.5". Down to the solid body, we find an amazing Sunburst finish onto which the scratchplate sits. Within this scratchplate we find the usual suspects - the 3 single coil pickups, classic strat style tremelo, and the traditional 1 volume and 2 tone control setup. A chrome jack socket finishes off this little imp! The 5 way selector switch works exactly as a full size Strat. The middle picture below just shows you the size compared to the standard strat model.

Looks

Awesome! Its a perfect copy of the real McCoy, even the 5 way switch works the same as a proper Strat. Even the sunburst finish is of the same standard as its bigger brother!

Sounds

All the distinctive Strat sounds ooze out of this beast, almost identical to the very guitar which it emulates! No matter which pickup configuration you're using, you're never far off those classic tones. Speaking of Tone, the tone control actually makes a difference too, unlike many other half size guitars.
