It definitely has a Starla vibe, but with a better headstock. It kind of reminds me of a single cut sg as well, which is nice because I had to sell my sg classic a while ago and this fills the void nicely. Btw check out this neck joint and finish, super comfy...

I've only seen Richmonds in a shop once, my local shop rarely gets anything out of the standard in... and I didn't have time to test it.
That said, everything that Godin produces is decent, if not always interesting. My first guitar was a Godin, and I still have it (though I've made attempts to trade it)... it's one of their entry level models, but is a very good quality instrument with good design. I don't play it very often these days, but it's still nice.

The Richmond models have occasionally questionable aesthetics, but I'm certain that they're solid players.

The Seagull 12 string I have was amazingly good value for money and has one of the better sounding piezo systems I've heard, I've got a pretty high opinion the lower priced Godin stuff, and the QC is top-notch.

I really want a P90 Empire now. THANKS FINBAMA.
