Rory Gallagher’s iconic guitar goes under hammer

The iconic guitar that Irish rock and blues legend Rory Gallagher played throughout his career is to go under the hammer later.

Gallagher, widely regarded as one of the greatest guitarists of all time, bought the 1961 Fender Stratocaster for £100 in 1963.

It’s one of a number of the Irish musician’s instruments and other items being auctioned by the Gallagher estate on Thursday with a reserve price of between £700,000 and £1m.

Auctioneer Claire Tole-Muir, from Bonhams, described the item as “one of the world’s most recognisable guitars”.
