Keith Richards playing a Harmony Meteor H70 model guitar at De Lane Lea Studios in London, England.
where the band recorded their second single “I Wanna Be Your Man” on October 7, 1963
Visitors may have noted I once collected Harmony guitars and still have an H162 (the poor man’s Martin!?) which is my pride and joy and eminently payable that I bought years ago now from America when I had a notion you could still buy them cheap (ish) from the States and people often found they had a model in the loft or attic and as the first real Sears & Robuck style catalogue purchase they must have made millions but being that The USA had no shortage of fine woods they were really well built and consequently had/ have a resounding tone and are relatively robust. The electric models still show up in some folks’ collection and early starter model guitars and here Keith was no exception.
