From Foreign Tongues (2026). Foreign Tongues is the twenty-fifth British and the twenty-seventh American studio album by the English rock band the Rolling Stones, released on 10 July 2026. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for The Rolling Stones' other songs from Foreign Tongues, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
