Ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/1993-Richie-Sambora ... 1e616177d2

Although, this guy is asking an absurd price. If you want to enquire, I would ask him to verify himself, that Sambora actually owned and played that strat. I bet he couldn't. :lol:

This black paisley Sambora has a deluxe locking tremolo assembly with LSR roller nut and Sperzel locking tuners, which are uncommon features for a Sambora signature. Richie uses the Original Floyd Rose bridge, not the "mini-Floyd" found on the Plus/US Deluxe series and other expensive guitars.

I believe the guitar has been modified by a professional luthier as the deluxe locking tremolo was an after-market mod - the Floyd Rose cavity has been covered with a piece of alder and refinished.

I believe its a modded Paisley Sambora as well. Personally I like the LSR rolelr nut but would of prefered the floyd rose trem with the lsr nut and locking tuners.

I believe the idea came as Richie used (and still uses) a couple of humbucker-equipped American Deluxe Strats with the mini-Floyd bridge (shown here with a non-locking trem 2004 sunburst rosewood-neck SSS model.)

One of the great things about the "Search" feature is that the OP can input Richie Sambora Strat and have referenced every post containing that phrase. :idea: I believe, if memory serves, we had extensive conversation on that, along with pics, within the past 6 months.
