Thanks...
But whatabout the guitars, why is it that fender has deleted the Sambora signature models?
And why does he shift so much between, strats, les pauls, hollowbodies, and "soloist" models?

these days era his live rig was prety much his old signature strat with the dimarzio PAF and floyd on it into a huge zoom floorboard that wasnt commercially available, into fender tone master stacks. he had the ovatoin double neck too

one wild night and crush era it was his 2nd signature strat with the noiseless pickups and other 57 type strats into the boss pedals in ice's articale but im pretty certaon its always been dsl2000's that he's used as opposed to the 800 marshall. he started using the taylor doubleneck acoustic round about this time.

bounce he was mostly playing some sort of floyd rose pilot guitar and the marshalls again. not exactly sure about stompboxes.

you can hear tonnes of different gear on the albums but he keeps it pretty simple live. he used diezels on alot of bounce but kept the marshalls live.

oh yeah and don't forget the 52 tele he uses on saturday night.

Or the '64 sunburst strat with tortoiseshell scratchplate for 'Wanted'!

There's also the old sig Kramer's he used to have including the cool white doubleneck for 'Lay Your Hands On Me' but that axe was exchanged for a gorgeous doubleneck custom built strat in flamed cherryburst for the These Days Tour and now for the rather awful silver sparkle finish PRS for that number since Crush.

His talk-box changed from a Dunlop Heilsound to a custom built Framptone model somewhere in the mid-late nineties (I think).

richie has now moved on to gibson. the l-5 was due out a while back but it all seems to have gone quiet on that front recently.

Maybe Alec stole all Richies old gear and auctioned it. :P

I thought he has signed with Anderson, he uses them on a lot of the concert picks, pretty cool guitar compared to strats and LP's.

he has no endorsement contract for anderson at all. he simply chooses to play two of their models.

How do you know? Usually you're not allowed to list an artist playing your guitar unless you have an endorsement deal. And Richie's listed:
