Fender Custom Shop Rory Gallagher

Fender Custom Shop Rory Gallagher Signature Electric Guitar 3-Color Sunburst


Fender Custom Shop Rory Gallagher Signature Electric Guitar 3-Color Sunburst


A near clone of Rory's famous battle-worn Strat.

The Rory Gallagher Stratocaster guitar is an exact representation of the Irish blues singer/songwriter's personal Strat. Features 3 custom wound '60s single-coil pickups, aged chrome hardware, 21 jumbo frets and a bone nut. Fender takes time to create extra detail during the Relic process to replicate Gallagher's extremely worn 3-color sunburst alder body, maple neck and rosewood fingerboard. They've even gone so far as to include 5 Sperzel tuners and one Gotoh tuner; as well as replacing the twelfth dot marker with white plastic instead of the original clay. Fender includes a case with the Rory Gallagher Signature Electric Guitar.
