Re: Richwood Artist Series

Ah someone knows something, now that has made me re think what imp going to

David would you recommend it over a Takamine EG523SC?
I have found a one for sale £240 but the Richwood new is £199 but i cant try
it, i would have to make the gamble of buying it online
what do you think?
