Keith Richards’ 1963 Harmony H1270

Brand: Harmony
Model: Sovereign
Serial Number: 6877

Used somewhat regularly in 1964, seen most notably on Ready Steady Go!, filmed at Kingsway Studios in London on 14 February 1964.

The guitar somehow survived all those years, even though Keith didn’t seem to have used it at all after 1964, and it was sold in 2004 for $33,460 over at Christie’s.
