Rock out with a piece of history: Bid on Keith Richards’ iconic 1972 Fender Telecaster Custom from the Rolling Stones stage!

Get ready to rock and roll as a legendary 1972 Fender Telecaster Custom that was once wielded by the iconic Keith Richards is set to hit the auction block. Alongside this prized guitar, the auction will also feature a guitar strap and various Rolling Stones tour memorabilia, promising an electrifying bidding war.

Hosted by Gotta Have Rock and Roll, this auction will showcase not just any ordinary guitar but a Vox wah pedal that once belonged to the legendary Jimi Hendrix, adding an extra layer of rock ‘n’ roll history to the event. Bids for Hendrix’s wah pedal will start at a cool $15,000, while the starting price for Keef’s black Tele Custom will be $20,000.

The 1972 Telecaster Custom exudes the unmistakable aura of Keith Richards, making it a coveted piece for any avid guitarist or Rolling Stones fan. Originally part of Jim Callaghan’s collection, a veteran of the Rolling Stones security team, Richards gifted this unique Telecaster to Callaghan during the Urban Jungle Tour in 1990.

Although the lot does not include a guitar capo, the collection features a Fender guitar strap used by Richards himself, a crew jacket, crew T-shirts, tour itinerary, and various passes. To add authenticity to the ensemble, a certificate of authenticity and a letter of provenance will accompany the guitar.

This early ’70s Fender guitar boasts the classic F-stamped neck plate, black skirted Strat-style knobs, and a Wide Range humbucker at the neck with a single-coil pickup at the bridge. Its vintage charm evokes the essence of rock ‘n’ roll from that era.

For those looking to channel their inner Keith Richards, this guitar is a must-have. Alternatively, the American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom offers a similar vibe and is estimated to fetch between $50,000 and $100,000 in the auction.

On the other hand, the Hendrix Vox wah pedal, a Clyde McCoy holy grail wah pedal from Italy, with serial number 02683 will also be up for grabs. Previously owned by The Ghetto Fighers, the pedal has a rich history of stage and studio performances, adding an extra layer of prestige to this unique piece.

Both the Keith Richards’ Telecaster and the Jimi Hendrix Vox wah pedal will be auctioned on April 12th. For more information on how to participate in the auction, visit Gotta Have Rock and Roll’s official website.
