Richard Oakes frequently plays a Fender Telecaster during live performances, including songs like "New Generation" and "The Wild Ones." His history with Telecasters dates back to his youth when he purchased a black Korean Squier Tele, which he later used with Suede. In the late '90s, Richard acquired a blonde 1971 Telecaster, further cementing his affinity for this iconic guitar model. This performance from Suede's 2013 Paris concert showcases his continued use of the Telecaster.
Richard used a sunburst stratocaster in Daddy's Speeding live in Royal Albert Hall (2014)
