Rory Gallagher and the Fender Stratocaster

Strat Collector News is very pleased to publish the first of three articles in a series about Rory Gallagher and his Fender Stratocaster. This first article, by Rory's brother, Dónal, is titled "Rory's Fender Strat" and gives us an intimate glimpse of how the infamous 1961 Sunburst Stratocaster came into Rory's life and what it meant to him.

The next two articles, by Patrick Kennedy, offer a detailed look at the Fender Custom Shop Rory Gallagher Tribute Stratocaster (including an interivew with Master Builder John Cruz) and an article about his life and life-long love affair with the Blues.
