Just bought this guitar (well the Lag T70DCE) for my daughter yesterday. A small shop in town stocks Lag guitars and they spoke very highly of them. Both she and I know nothing about guitars so a couple months ago I started the search for a beginner acoustic for her and could not find too much info on Lag. Lots of info on the big names Fender, Yamaha etc but something about Lag kept nagging at me. Well I came across Richards Guitars and his UA-cam videos and he won me over (along with the local music shop I mentioned before). Like I said I have no knowledge of anything guitar but it is so pretty and sounds so nice I almost want to keep it for myself! Anyhow thanks for your videos Richard, they helped me decide yes on Lag and you have a new fan from over in the USA! I was also very happy I was able to purchase from my small local music shop! They need the support more than ever during these times! Stay safe everyone!
Your enthusiasm, and some what bashful, boyish, self deprecating ways are endearing. Richard I have learned so much about guitar brands out of the mainstream and love your tutoring of the fundamentals , especially the Blues. I look forward to your videos and thank you for your time and infectious style of presentation....
Hi! I just happened to see this comment as I was checking through LAG videos from the past. Lots has happened in the past 4 years but there has just been a price drop - which is amazing - and a few cool things happening - so wanted to focus on LAG as part of my new 2025 focus. Anyway - very kind of you to comment - havent been able to focus on youtube for almost 3 years now actually - due to life events (caring for mother in law a big part of it!) but have worked hard to find a path forward with it. Also - setting up a community for anyone with a genuiine interest in the videos - regular customers - or Facebook contributors . It should be a nice place :). Join my mailing list if you are interested and we can stay in touch!
@@RichardsGuitarshop Hi Richard. Jesse here from Missouri again. Suprised that you found my comment and sent me a message and within a couple of days since i sent the text to you. What are the chances of that? Anyway, i have been watching your videos and am subscribed to your channel. I think its very cool that you are planning to work with Lag Guitars in 2025. I have been interested in that brand for a few years now . I have only been playing guitar for about three years. So i would say that i am an amiture guitar player at best. Its really cool that you have been taking care of your loved ones like that. Thanks for reaching out to me. I really love guitars especially Lag Tramontane Acoustic guitars. I had a T70A for a couple of months. I dont know how to get on your mailling list. You would need to help me with that. I am a little slow in that regard. So cool to here from you! I was stunned at first. Did not know what to say when i saw your text on my smartphone!

Just bought this exact guitar. First played it and felt and sounded like a $1,000 + guitar then looked at the price tag and was less than $600. Best possible guitar for this price range and a great guitar in general. Good job LAG guitars keep up the good work!!!
Thanks a lot for the great demo, joyful brother! This'll be my very next treasure! LAG seems to have a hold on me :) Love and Light to all of you stringers. By the way, I left the 369 likes, let's think in terms of vibration and frequency :)
I discovered exactly yesterday afternoon than the man who create lag was born to toulouse ( not to loose. Toulouse at the new Orléans come from france ) , my town . Marvellous sound ( i think about it since some years) . Thank you. De la part d un francais de toulouse 😜
Mine was delivered this week and it really is a stunning guitar Richard. Sounds great unplugged but even better when played through the Kinsman KAA25 amp. Having been a fan of 12 string guitars for many years, I think I may be playing the LAG more than the Cort AD810 12 string, which is a dream to play than my old Eko Ranger.
I have one of these and wondering if this is suitable for gypsy jazz. Nuages. I am also looking at a richwood 70 oval hole. Do I need that or is the lag good for it please?
Hi. I don't see your name on our records so can I presume you didnt buy it from us? If you did - we would literally set the guitar up to your personal requirements and the gauge of string would be on the certificate. During COVID we ran out of certificates but if you didnt get one we can forward it. If you bought the guitar from us please contact us immediately because these guitars are SUPERB PLAYABLE. Playability is one of the major plus points due to their excellent geometry. Hope that helps.
I have a Lag Jet 100, in pale blue three single coils, and a beautiful smooth neck and fretboard, a cracking guitar, as punchy as some expensive Strats i've played
I have several but they're not good players nor do they sound good. Richard is opening my eyes & ears to the possibility that decent acoustic guitars exist below the realm of J45's & DM28's et al 😊👍
I’m French. My first guitar was a LAG. Beuuurk!!! No sound...After one year « le chevalet », I don’t know the name in english (bridge?) was off!!😕 Now I have got a Lowden F32c (vintage), a Larrivée L05 mahogany/Sitka (vintage), and an american Breedlove CR. No comparaison. Lag no. But I see video with Eastman, Furch and Dowina and they sound cool. 👍 Dowina, is very very interesting., beautiful sound. I would like to ear them in a real situation. And perhaps buy one of them.
Sorry Richard much as I respect your views had one of these- totally un playable ended up putting it into a local charity shop .....(it had a tinny plywood top) think it came from Hornby Skews( probably mis -spelt! )
Ever thought about doing the review on the guitar instead of waffling about bullshit like light coming into the window??? I CAME FOR THE GUITAR REVIEW,,,, GEDDIT?
There’s chat about the guitar, about it acoustically, plugged in to an amp, looped, played lead with effects, size and price…. What do you want? Christ!!! Calm down!!!
Love the way you deliver these videos Richard. They are always a pleasure to watch. I’m on my 3rd LAG and absolutely love them.

What a lovely sound this guitar is capable of 😍
Got one, and love it. From the first look and play at guitar shop

I just bought mine and hopefully I will will test it as soon as I receive it!

I’m loving that jampal more and more. Hopefully your lessons will show me what to do with it once I take the plunge. Cheers Richard.

That sounds absolutely incredible! Great stuff....
Perfect. Enjoyed that alot. I have same guitar. Just started learning.
I got one yesterday! Well impressed. Great video! It seems lag have a very good reputation and this guitar sure loves to be played..
Music heals the soul.
10:20 What you created here was absolutely beautiful, the scales on chords pfff.. I love it, I'm getting this guitar today!
Richard has got excellent marketing skills. Beautifully explained 👍
Thanks a lot for the great demo, joyful brother! This'll be my very next treasure! LAG seems to have a hold on me :) Love and Light to all of you stringers.

nice 👍👍 i have a black LAG guitar. (T100ACE-BLK) love the sound and it's been very stable and sturdy through the 6-7 years I've had it.
Really nice sound,great guitar!
Amazing video, thanks for it!
I discovered exactly yesterday afternoon than the man who create lag was born to toulouse ( not to loose. Toulouse at the new Orléans come from france ) , my town .
Marvellous sound ( i think about it since some years) .
Thank you.
De la part d un francais de toulouse 😜
Great ... now I want a cinnamon bun!
Also it's probably about time I looked into a pickup for one of my acoustics.
Sounded great. Looked great fun too.
Beautiful sound, I love it ❤️ 🌟, I want one. Thank you for sharing.
Nice one rich and not out of Focus 👍 keep up the good work! Stay safe buddy ✌️
Richard, you need to persuade LAG to produce these with a 45mm nut!!
beautiful looking guitar... great video... and the looper... nice
I in love with this guitar how could I get it ? I’m in Cambodia
Could you do a comparison between the nylon LAG TN270ACE and TN170ASCE please? I'm really torn... Thanks
Mine was delivered this week and it really is a stunning guitar Richard. Sounds great unplugged but even better when played through the Kinsman KAA25 amp. Having been a fan of 12 string guitars for many years, I think I may be playing the LAG more than the Cort AD810 12 string, which is a dream to play than my old Eko Ranger.
Hello, thank you for the show! I ask me what amp you have. It seems to be a Yamaha amp isn't it? Thank you it´s Ringo from Hamburg
Thank you so much for this review, I bought my first Lag guitar today thanks to you. Cheers !
That sounded absolutely beautiful Richard . Were you using the Acus amp? I'd love to hear it with my Digitech Mosaic 12-string pedal . Cheers 👍
I bought a lag70 and it's amazing. Sounds really good unplugged and trough PA system. The neck it's very easy to play
What foot switch do you use to make loops?
Is it from lag??
I have one of these and wondering if this is suitable for gypsy jazz. Nuages.
I am also looking at a richwood 70 oval hole. Do I need that or is the lag good for it please?
That looks and sounds great. A little bit of pedagogy crept in too. 😁
Perfect!
Very slick
Are you doing anymore lessons ? Seen two, wondering if there will be some more.
Yes for sure.
No fret markers?
Can I get a tail bridge shipped to me from lag ? For the very same thing you're playing.
One week into the first lockdown
Hi Richard loved your video
I have a question, what is the difference between t170dce vs t70ace
The DCE is a Dreadnought and the ACE is Auditorium size. The Dread is a little bigger .
fucking hate when 99% of guitar testing is talking
Richard, what amp are using in this demo? Is it the same amp that you used in the Eastman AC 522 CE preview?
The same brand of amp yes. Its the new Acus 5T which I demoed a few videos back
Richards Guitars - sounds very acoustic as it should, thanks
👍 Good friend 🙂 💫 👍 rock on!
5:07
How to get that acoustic guitar ?
Hi, what strings do you have in this guitar? I just bought it and the strings seem to be too hard, and it's so hard to play :/
Hi. I don't see your name on our records so can I presume you didnt buy it from us?

I own the T90d model excellent acoustic beats anything I've owned before and I've gone through them all.
I have a Lag Jet 100, in pale blue three single coils, and a beautiful smooth neck and fretboard, a cracking guitar, as punchy as some expensive Strats i've played
I've played a couple of them and you're right. Excellent value for money.
this lockdown has made me realise I need at least one acoustic guitar in my collection..
I have several but they're not good players nor do they sound good. Richard is opening my eyes & ears to the possibility that decent acoustic guitars exist below the realm of J45's & DM28's et al 😊👍
Bought t70d ...not following sheeps who get influenced by youtubers/influencer and get Yamaha or Fender or whatever...
The T70D is awesome !
I’m French. My first guitar was a LAG. Beuuurk!!! No sound...After one year « le chevalet », I don’t know the name in english (bridge?) was off!!😕 Now I have got a Lowden F32c (vintage), a Larrivée L05 mahogany/Sitka (vintage), and an american Breedlove CR.

Nope - it wasn't a LAG. They don't have laminate tops (any of them in fact) and JHS have never distributed them. So I think we are ok!
Richards Guitars , all the T66 models are laminate top
Ever thought about doing the review on the guitar instead of waffling about bullshit like light coming into the window??? I CAME FOR THE GUITAR REVIEW,,,, GEDDIT?
Calm down guy, you do not pay this guy ! There is a lot of others videos if you're angry for some words
There’s chat about the guitar, about it acoustically, plugged in to an amp, looped, played lead with effects, size and price…. What do you want? Christ!!! Calm down!!!
Mate, calm the feck down!! If you don’t like, turn off !!
Very nice...
