Richie Sambora Guitar For Sale

The RS Rockstar™ guitar by Ovation is an acoustic/electric hybrid single neck, 6-string, guitar features all the essentials of the classic Ovation Elite sound and style, with a loud and focused voice, supreme playability. Premium RS Rockstar™ features include a laminated spruce top with Elite-style multi-soundholes for clearly articulate tone, and a mid-depth body for greater volume and projection, excellent balance and supreme durability. The RS Rockstar™ model also features Ovation's groundbreaking roundback design. Scientifically developed in 1964 by Ovation founder, Charlie Kaman along with his team of aerospace engineers, Ovation's patented Lyrachord® roundback models were unquestionably the strongest guitar in the world. Designed for durability, sonic responsiveness and an unparalleled ability to stay in tune – the RS Rockstar™ is the ultimate guitar for young players, school music programs, or guitarists of all levels who live an active lifestyle. Made most famous with the release of Bon Jovi's 1986 Top 10 hit song, "Wanted Dead or Alive," Sambora's double neck Ovation became one of the world's most instantly recognizable guitar models.

In 2000, Taylor started the production of a Richie Sambora signature model, a six-string acoustic made of koa wood, called the RSSM. All of his double-neck acoustics feature a six-string neck on top and a 12-string neck on bottom, opposite of normal. Sambora's guitar solo in the song "Bullet" from the 2009 album The Circle was played through a Dunlop Cry Baby wah pedal.

(Tuesday, April 3rd, 2018– New Hartford, CT) Ovation Guitars proudly welcomes home legendary artist Richie Sambora with the launch of two new signature guitars benefitting youth music programs. In addition, Ovation Guitars, in conjunction with the DW Music Foundation will debut the RS Rockstar™ guitar. This six-string, "RS" model guitar will be donated to each Notes for Notes location along with a DW drumset and an LP cajon to equip each studio with professional level musical instruments. The DWMF will also work with other partnering charities to donate RS Rockstar™ model guitars to music education programs in underserved communities worldwide. Over the course of his 30-year career, American rock icon Richie Sambora has been lauded for his indelible songwriting, powerful vocals and world-class guitar playing. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2009 and will be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on April 14, 2018.

A full length RSO album is slated for release this Spring. While Richie Sambora was never a guitarist I really looked up to, I always liked his strats. I really wish Fender would offer more floyds on their guitars as the rest of their line up is saturated with other bridges.

The guitar features an alder body, a maple one-piece neck, 22 frets, star inlays, an original floyd rose, HSS configuration, one volume, two tones and a five way switch. Sambora's first solo album was 1991's Stranger in This Town, a blues-influenced album that charted at No. 36 on the Billboard 200 and No. 20 on the UK Albums Chart. The lead single, "Ballad Of Youth", reached a high of No. 63 on the U.S.

"One Light Burning" was released as the second single and the album titled track, "Stranger In This Town" as the third which charted at No. 38 on the Mainstream rock charts. Eric Clapton played the lead guitar on the promo single Mr Bluesman, backed by Sambora on acoustic guitars. Sambora did a short US tour in support of the album, featuring Tony Levin , Dave Amato , Crystal Taliefero and Bon Jovi bandmates Tico Torres and David Bryan . The track "Rosie" was co-written by Jon Bon Jovi and was initially intended for the fourth Bon Jovi album New Jersey. "Ballad of Youth" was released in the UK in summer 1991 and despite plugs from The Friday Rock Show on BBC Radio 1 the song barely skimmed the top 75.

Richie Sambora joined the New Jersey band Bon Jovi in 1983, a few months after its creation. Right from the start, Sambora's playing and personality perfectly matched the image of founding singer Jon Bon Jovi. Together, they created a songwriting duo that would come up with hard rock classics that remain mainstays of every radio station playlist. The true explosion happened in 1986 with the Slippery When Wet album, on which Sambora co-wrote nine out of ten songs, including mega-singles Livin' On A Prayer, You Give Love A Bad Name and Wanted Dead Or Alive.

The guitar hero's virtuosic, precise and energetic playing are in full force on that album. Sambora has integrated Van Halen's influence to his style like any soloist of the time, but he added his personal twist to it. His talent for arranging can be head on the twelve-string parts of Wanted…, the pitch shifted solo to You Give Love A Bad Name or the talkbox for Livin' On A Prayer. This is nothing more than the same korean built ovation doublenecks with the changes of a paint job, fake pearl starls and binding and the necks swapped. The body feels short and plumpish compared to richies original which is nothkng like this. The headstock decals are stickers which give it a cheap home made feel.

And btw, the case is awful compared to the old doubleneck cases, it comes with this seatbelt type strap with velcro which is supposed to hold your necks in place, the moment you pick the case up you can hear the guitar drop inside. Following a self-released eponymous 1980 hard rock album with an act called Message that he had co-founded with the late Dean Fasano, Sambora took a two-week trip to Los Angeles to audition for a place in Kiss. By 1983, Sambora had replaced Dave Sabo as the guitarist in Bon Jovi and the band was signed to Mercury Records. Selling over 28 million copies, Bon Jovi's third album, Slippery When Wet, became their most successful record, ushering hair metal into the mainstream. Sambora had a hand in composing nine of the ten tracks, enjoying not unsubstantial royalties from what became the highest-selling album of 1987 in the U.S.

As a result of this success, Sambora found himself in the media spotlight more than ever and his relationship and subsequent breakup with Cher were widely reported. Recently, Matt's Guitar Shop managed to get ahold of the legend who agreed to sell us a few choice pieces among his vast collection. The guitars for sale at our showroom include guitars Sambora used on stage, in the studio, signature models, prototypes, and many precious artifacts for the many admirers of the hatted musician.

Sambora joined Bon Jovi in 1983, replacing the band's original lead guitarist Dave Sabo, who went on to form Skid Row. Alec John Such had been playing in a band with Sambora and joined Bon Jovi while Sambora was away in Los Angeles auditioning for Kiss. When Sambora returned home, Such promptly invited him to see the band play. Sambora was impressed with Bon Jovi after seeing the band perform live, describing the band as "magic", and he subsequently approached Jon Bon Jovi backstage and "gave him a verbal résumé".

Though Sambora initially believed Bon Jovi wasn't interested in him, he received a phone call several days later inviting him to rehearse with the band. When Jon arrived and heard the band with Sambora, he hired him on the spot. That night, the pair returned to Bon Jovi's mother's house and wrote the songs "Come Back" and "Burning for Love", both of which would appear on the band's 1983 debut album. The Richie Sambora Stratocaster features an Alder body with a Maple fingerboard with abalone star inlays, as well as a Floyd Rose tremolo, and two Texas Special single coils with a DiMarzio PAF Pro humbucker in the bridge position.

Richie Sambora's signature appears on the back of the headstock. Updated in 1999 to an SSS pickup configuration and a vintage-style tremolo. The guitar had a DiMarzio PAF Pro in the bridge with some DiMarzio Area pickups in the neck and middle.

I find it's a bit linera at times, and there are other times when I wish it were a bit more compressed sounding. It's pretty open, so if you're into that kind of sound, it might work for you. Then again, I was mostly playing metal through this thing. The Area pickups were very silent, and they sounded amazing. They're some of my favorite singles out there, and they have an awesome blues tone once you roll down the volume a bit. They respond nicely to both pick attack and other dynamics, and the in between tones were absolutely to die for.

Additionally, Sambora has had individual success with his first solo album, 1991's Stranger in This Town, a blues-influenced album that charted at #36 on The Billboard 200 and #20 on the UK Albums Chart. Eric Clapton played lead guitar on the promo single Mr Bluesman, backed by Sambora on acoustic guitars. He did a short US tour in support of the album, featuring Tony Levin , Dave Amato , Crystal Taliefero and Bon Jovi bandmates Tico Torres and Dave Bryan .

Sambora's first instrument was the accordion which he began to play at the age of 6. He began playing the guitar at the age of 12 following the death of Jimi Hendrix in 1970. From his early days, Sambora was strongly influenced by blues and 1960s rock and roll. His most important influences were Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Johnny Winter, Jimmy Page, Joe Perry, Joe Kmiecik, George Harrison, and B.

He was also influenced by Spanish classical music and began a lifelong love of the Spanish guitar. Furthermore, he had stated that psychedelic soul singer Janis Joplin had a big influence on his musical style during her career in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Classical music directly inspired several of his songs, such as The Answer which was originally written on piano. Sambora also plays many other instruments, such as drums, bass, saxophone, piano etc. The first time he performed on stage was at a Catholic Youth Organization dance when he was a teenager.

In addition, bidders agree that they are bound by all site terms of use and auction conditions of sale.

In one scenario, if an auction house and an auctioneer is present, winning live bids from Charitybuzz Live Bid lots are treated as "absentee" bids. This normally means that the Charitybuzz winning bid is placed in the auctioneers books as a bid. As the auctioneer conducts the auction, they will bring up and enter the Charitybuzz winning bid during the course of the auction as the current price or next minimum bid value approaches the Charitybuzz winner's bid amount.

In this scenario, other people in the real world room are expected to bid against the auctioneer, not the Charitybuzz winning bidder. If no one is bidding in the room, the auctioneer will typically keep bidding up the price until the Charitybuzz Live Bid winner wins the real world auction.

As songwriters, Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora, individually and as collaborators, are responsible for some of popular music's biggest anthems over the last twenty-five years. It was clear that Fender was interested in him, for as early as 1991 he appeared in Fender Frontline. In one of the photos you could see the guitarist taking up a Stratocaster which at a first glance could seem a signature, but actually was a custom HRR '50s Strat . Although this HRR featured a Floyd and star shaped markers, just like its signature, it had no signature on the headstock and the pickups at the neck and the central one were mini humbuckers .
