Keith Richards' Strings

Hide incorrect submissions

Keith's iconic Telecasters (Micawber and Malcom) are set up in his "signature" 5-string open G tuning; the low E string (or what would be the low D string in open G tuning) is removed. For these guitars, Ernie Ball makes a custom set of strings to Keith's specified guages (.11 .15 .18p .30 .42) that are not available for sale to anyone else.
