Keith did not remove the low E string when in open G tuning until 1972. So, for JJF in 1969, 1970 and 1971 he used a les Paul Custom tuned to open G with a capo on the 4th fret, with the low E tuned to D. There's two exceptions: on 1968 NME Pollwinners and R&R Circus Keith plays JJF in standard tuning.

Thanks again for all the info. I'm guessing on the Saville Theatre footage he is also playing in standard tuning? I did not see a capo unless my eyes are giving out.
Speaking of standard tuning. What songs from the Taylor/Wood era are played in standard tuning? I know pretty much all the solo's were in standard but I'm referring to the main riff of said song.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Do we know what gear they are using on stage nowadays?
And did anyone notice how since ABB Darryl has some white Ampeg heads and his 40licks rig? |

Keith uses 2 old (probably '57) Fender Twin amps on main stage - and 2 of the same on the b-stage.
There was a short interlude with a Watkins Joker amp from the start of the european leg of the tour 'till the Paris gig.
20 minutes prior the the show that Watkins amp was replaced by the '57 Twin.
Ronnie uses 2, sometimes 4 Fender Vibro King Custom Amps on mainstage + another smaller Fender amp, dunno what kind tho'.
2 Fender Twin amps on b-stage, just like Keith.
...and yes, Darryl uses whitish Ampeg heads...
