Rory Gallagher
£1695
Rory Gallagher’s blood, sweat and tears, quite literally, contributed to the iconic appearance of this much loved guitar. With its time worn 3-colour Sunburst finish, Gallagher was a firm believer in the theory that the less paint or varnish on a guitar the better, allowing the wood to breathe more and enhancing the quality of sound.
Fraser Guitar’s tribute to Gallagher is our representation of the Irish blues singer/songwriter’s personal instrument. Features include our Vintage "C" maple neck with 9.5" radius slab rosewood fretboard with rolled edges and clay dots, rolled and polished Vintage Jumbo frets, bone nut and vintage-style machine heads. A trio of single-coil '60s pickups, hand-wound to vintage specifications, reproduce the bluesy sound universally associated with Gallagher.
