Yngwie Malmsteen
Yngwie Malmsteen's World Instruments
In this image Malmsteen appears on the cover of Metal Shock magazine holding strangely enough, what appears to be a traditional Indian Sitar. It is possible this odd instrument was used for certain intro/outros and other specialty studio tracks.
In this two-minute video, from an Yngwie Malmsteen documentery that was never made, Malmsteen can be seen sitting at home playing what looks like a different Indian Sitar.

In this video at 14:20, Malmsteen can be seen with a Green Jerry Jones Electric Sitar, it appears to have been modified with three white Stratocaster pickups in the Neck, Bridge, and Harp positions (possibly YJM signature models), and a Scalloped fretboard.
"This is a crazy one I use for a couple of things... it's called a "Sitar Guitar"... [Indecernable] it has these strings aswell... used on a couple of tracks, cool."
