Richard!!! You’re best guitar player 4ever!!! Greetings from Ukraine! =)
i don’t fucking understand the difference of guitar bodies and guitar wood.
Best guitar player ever 🙂
This list is 5 years old.
I don’t see his new guitar called ESP RZK – 2 🙂
Just incase anyone didn’t notice yet, Richard ONLY uses his signature RZK-1 and RZK-2 exclusively now. They have different paint jobs.
He still uses his Voodoo modded Dual Rectifiers. And I’m guessing he still uses the dual recfifiers 4×12’s.
Hey all,
Here another new guitar from Richard Z Kruspe

Dylan,
If I could argue with you I would, but I cant find a good enough reason to do so. It seems that you are well educated on such matters, and am glad to see that Rammstein is a kind of obsessive/love type of thing to you as well.
Keep on Kickin-Ass!!!!!!
Also, I find he has a solo style more reminiscent of Angus Young, listen to the song “New York City”, you’ll hear it.
@Sig-SauerP226
Well, he does use the ESP KH-2, which IS the signature guitar for Kirk Hammett, and Richard’s signature is pretty much a recreation of the KH-2, but his has a modernized Mosrite body and Gibson-like headstock.
But, also, a LOT of bands use Dual Rectifier heads. Now, I’m not saying you’re wrong, I’m pretty sure Richard is a Metallica fan, and I read somewheres that he talks to Hammett often.
i wish you could learn me to play guitar…but since you probably cant im just gonna have to learn to play myself…(you PWN)
I ran across some discussion about Richard being a Metallica fan and find myself laughing at some people’s thoughts about this issue. I’m going to present 3 undeniable facts.
1. If you were to look at Kirk Hammett’s setup from 1990’s onward you would see a very similiar one to Richard’s.
ESP’s with Floyd Rose and EMG 81’s and Mesa Boogie Rectifiers.
2. If you were to anaylize Richard’s solo style, chugging heavy-ass riffing and even sound tone, you would see many similiarities, not copies by any means, but influence.
3. How could any metal guitarist fom the past 20 years not be somewhat influenced by James and Kirk. Hell they wrote the damn book on modern metal guitar playing.
Metallica’s influence on Richard may not have been discussed in any interviews but it doesn’t have to be. Its a given if you have any musical knowledge. By no way am i saying Rammstein is a Metallica cover band, no fuckin’ way. Rammstein has a place within my life and mind that no other band can even approach, with that being said, Richard has done no wrong whatsoever on this subject, quite the opposite.
Only a dumbass would ignore Metallica as an inspiration.
Rammalied down to my soul and LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!
Richard is the best guitarest of our generation!! Come to IRELAND soon!!!
