Description

The marvel that is Nile Rodgers has written, produced, and performed on recordings that have sold more than 500 million albums and 75 million singles globally. His collaborations have included such distinguished artist as Chic, David Bowie, Diana Ross, Madonna, Robert Plant, Jeff Beck, The Vaughn brothers, Christina Aguilera, Lady Gaga, Sam Smith, Pharrell Williams, Daft Punk, and many more. Branded by his irresistible rhythm guitar work and visionary production mastery, every hit record Nile touched shared one essential element: His 1960 Fender Stratocaster. Rarely is a single guitar so inseparably with its glorious owner as The Hitmaker.

Bought used in a Miami music shop, Nile's Hitmaker Stratocaster is a true vintage rarity featuring a '60 body, a '59 maple neck and an uncommon hardtail bridge - contributing in no small part to Nile's extraordinary rhythm tones.

The Nile Rodgers Hitmaler Stratocaster features an Alder body finish in Olympic White lacquer, one piece maple neck with 9.5' radius fingerboard, three custom Nile Rogers single coil Strat pickups replicating the sound of his orginal, 5-way switching, mirroed chrome-plated brass pickguard, hard tail bridge with period correct bent saddles, locking sperzel tuners, and a custom Hitmaker neck plate. Also included is a custom vintage-style case with Hitmaker embroidered interior and a custom certificate of authenticity.
