Richmond Guitars Introduces Richmond Empire

The retro-styled Empire features a single-cut body and is built in Canada.

Montreal, Canada (August 12, 2010) -- Richmond Guitars introduces the Richmond Empire to their line of retro-inspired, Canadian-built instruments.





The new Richmond Empire features a single cutaway solid silver leaf maple body with poplar wings, 24 ¾" scale, a smooth and ultra-comfortable mahogany Ergocut neck with a worn in feel, rosewood fingerboard, high-ratio tuners, and a chrome wrap-around bridge.
