Hey Everybody,
          I feel I need to come clean and announce that I have taken delivery of my very beautifully done Rory Gallagher Stratocaster made in March of last year.. It is fantastic and a beautiful tribute to a wonderful guitarist.. I bought it because I am playing the Cork Opera House this year in Cork Ireland.  Dave and I have some special plans for this guitar..It will not be stock in a months time... But Fender did a wonderful job with this one.. Gotta give credit were credit is due.. Its a great strat.. highly recommended for fans of Rory.. 
Something they can learn from I guess.. LOL

Hello Joe this is a quote from one of your previous threads about the Rory Gallagher strat..You mention that you have some special plans for this guitar and that it will not be stock in a months time...What kind of modifications did you make on it?  I have been interested in one of these guitars for a while now and would love to hear what would make this great guitar even better besides you playing it of course.

Thanks

Love to know what Joe tweaks on RG guitar, I bout a heavy relic CS 62' this year with RW neck - quarterswan and it feels great, pickups a ret he same as in RG Strat -CS special wound 60's - they're nice, didn't change them out.
