Don't know if people have seen this already, if they have then just forget it. Go to youtube.com and search for ron wood. the first hit should be ronnie giving a tour of his guitars during the licks tour. its cool to see.
I got an ESP Telecaster from jan.1990,red with cream-bindings and white pick-guard and two HB-pickups - but in difference to Ronnie´s ESP Telecasters,mine got rosewood fretboard with red headstock and no b-bender.
The guitar is very heavy,I sometimes call it a Rosewood telecaster in disguise ;-P
... cool picture, but ... am i missing something at that link, Open-G honey? your description sounds like that bit on the rs.com fanclub dvd, from the Licks tour where Ronnie introduces us to his lap steel, his pedal steel, the sitar-guitar and other tried-and-true instruments - or is this something different, once one gets past the picture?
On this clip from Japan 1990,is Ronnie using a rare seen ESP Telecaster - two-tone sunburst,white bindings and pickguard,two singlecoils PU´s and maple fretboard?

smile: beautiful shot, MoWaT! can we post it on the Ronnie's Gibson's thread, since that's an SG he's got there? [www.iorr.org] it'll look really great there, and that thread's been in need of an update!
The one in the picture seems to be a new one though. Maybe he met that guy from the company before the Helsinki gig and bought some new guitars from him...
Ronnie is a true guitar expert and lover. He's got so many rare and beautiful instruments (Zemaitis, Düsenberg and a lot more)
This one (on the pic) looks really cool with that blue "bulleye" and reversed headstock... Amazing...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Rolling Stones´ Ronnie Wood bought two VERSOUL guitars late 2003. BUXOM and HENRY (gold leaf top) and and added his Versoul collection with RESOSUN and RAYA 6 BARITONE guitars in autumn 2004.
Ronnie ordered his second RAYA 6 BARITONE from The Rolling Stones' Big Bang Tour in October 2005.
Versouls are now part of the machinery of the guitarist of the band that defined Rock´n´Roll as we´ve learned to know it.
VERSOUL CELEBRATES RONNIE WOOD'S 60TH BIRTHDAY on the 1st of JUNE 2007. Kari Nieminen and Alan Rogan a guitar tech guru met Ronnie Wood at his home in Richmond, London. During the visit Ronnie bought his 9th Versoul: a Buxom 12 string Baritone Acoustic guitar, and received another as a gift: a Versoul Buxom 12 string Custom guitar.
well, unless he's just gotten yet another new Versoul with that blue disk inset, he's had it at earlier 07 shows as well, not just Helsinki - i can't find any photos offhand, of course, but it's been there!
I was just thinking, because the models, which Ronnie got for his 60th birthday this year from Versoul were all acoustics (BUXOM) and this seems to be a custom variation of the HENRY model they have. I would believe it's a unique custom instrument though, right? Looks dead cool anyway! Thanks for the pictures!
That guitar is Ugly as hell, I must say... I think that he played one of these Versoul guitars in the Madrid gig, but I think to remember it hadn't that blue thing.
Quote with sssoul so what is this one, please and thank you and have some popcorn?

I have to say I think that is the ugliest guitar in Stones gravitational system. I like it when someone revives one of the Ratbag threads. One of the highlights of IORR. Zemaitae...><
Used to own a Kramer; what a terrible guitar that was. HEAVY!
