 MICK TAYLOR GUITAR
Legend has it that Taylor was in the audience of a John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers show in his hometown during June of 1966, a concert which then-Bluesbreakers guitarist Eric Clapton fail to show up.
By 1969, Taylor had grown restless in the Bluesbreakers (he'd lasted longer than any other previous guitarist in the group), and when the Rolling Stones inquired about his availability, the timing was perfect.
Although the Stones remained one of the biggest rock bands in the world, Taylor was growing restless (not to mention that the group's well-documented party hearty lifestyle was beginning to weigh heavily on him), and in 1975, the guitarist shocked the music world by leaving the group.

Mick Taylor, for those who don't know, was the lead guitarist for the Rolling Stones from about 1969-1974, which is what I consider to be the peak period for the band.
