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 design, 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. Each guitar is individually handmade and hand-sprayed to ensure a quality finish. Our pickups, hand-wound to vintage specification, reproduce the bluesy sound universally associated with Gallagher.
