Fender Custom Shop Rory Gallagher Signature Electric Guitar
Fender Custom Shop designers met Donal Gallagher, brother of late great guitarist Rory Gallagher, in Los Angeles in 1997 and received one of the most coveted guitars of all time - Gallagher’s heavily worn 1961 Stratocaster® guitar. Fender initially built 40 replicas for European sale, but was subsequently besieged with requests for more. The Rory Gallagher Tribute Stratocaster guitar is an exact replica of that revered instrument, down to the extremely worn Three-color Sunburst alder body, maple neck and rosewood fingerboard. It even has five Sperzel® tuners and one Gotoh® tuner, and the 12th-fret dot marker is white plastic rather than the original clay. It also features three custom-wound ’60s single-coil pickups, aged chrome hardware, 21 jumbo frets and a bone nut. Fender includes a case with the Rory Gallagher Signature Electric Guitar.

"A SUPER RELIC"

The worn down neck plays like butter. The jumbo frets make for awesome bending. The pick-ups scream (I'm sure the bone nut has something to do with it!) The worn finish feels & looks great. Essentially an unbelievable new version of a $15,000 vintage '61 strat.

The best Strat I ever had in my hands. I play for a 32 years and this Stratocaster Is the the best job, very serious job from Custom shop. If you want old Strat, don't buy the old one, buy this one, Rory, this Strat is better then 90% of old Strats. Soul of this guitar Is pure Strat soul, art work from Custom shop.

"Strat Nirvana"

In thirty years plus of being a guitarist (avocation) and, of course, owning several guitars as most guirarist do, I have to say it's the very best STRAT I have ever had in my hands. The neck is just beyond belief. The pick-up's are right on the money--throaty like Texas specials but with more treble-bite..scans the 'muddyness' especially at the neck position. If you can, or even if can't afford one--BUY IT!

Quite simply the best Strat I ever played! As a Strat fanatic, for as long as I can remember, I've played and owned my fair share. Once you get this jewel set-up to your liking you will no doubt be amazed by the feel and playability of the sweetest neck on the planet! I also love the Pick-ups. They're better than the ever popular Texas specials because they have the punch without the muddiness. They break up very sweetly through a Marshall and give that classic Strat tone when played through a Twin Reverb. If you can afford one, take the plunge!!

I saw Rory play at the Whiskey in 1973 and by that time I had seen Hendrix, Page, Duane, just about everyone. He had a talent that has to put him in the Hendrix suite in heaven! I read a review of the Rory Strat and took the plunge about a month ago. Wow what a great strat! You have this resonant really hot strat that just really wants to be pushed. The string set up is a slightly higher than my VG and this works out well for using the slide, which I have pushed hours now this month. I never really appreciated what people were saying about a bell tone but in the neck position the RG has this sensitivity to your picking technique that I just don't get with any other strat I have played. The jumbo frets mean you can do your Albert King bends all night. I play through a JVM and in Hendrix mode this is scary how much you get that really throat like tone! REALLY pick sensitive and you can break it up just with some meat on the pick. This is the best vintage I have played period. I can take it out and not worry about losing a true investment vintage. Fender makes a limited number so it probably will have vintage resale. I never plan to sell mine. Rock on!
