Richie Sambora Enjoys a Rickenbacker

Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora tired out a Rickenbacker 325/12V63 following a recent concert in Nuremberg. Incidently there were 75,000 fans at this concert. Let's hope that he uses a Rickenbacker during one of his performances soon.

Hmmm. Just how much does one have to play a Rickenbacker 325/12V63 before it gets "tired out"? <g>

Hey, anyone notice in this pic of a sitting Sambora that the Rick appears to be Missing a tailpiece?

I just wanted to say a thank you to Peter for letting me use the picture of Richie Sambora for my web site. The photo was great!

I remember Richie Sambora playing a 50's Rick 330 or 360 in a recent Bon Jovi Video, so maybe he finally may have find out that only the best guitar is suitable for a good player...
