Lot Essay

Nile Rodgers has maintained a close working relationship with many of the music industry's most proficient and prolific artists. One of these long-time creative relationships has been with muscian Bryan Ferry and often with his band Roxy Music. This Fender Stratocaster has been used in the past decade on some of his more recent albums, though their working relationship goes back decades. Said Rodgers: "You know, I’ve played on every Bryan Ferry record except for his jazz record....I’ve played on every Bryan Ferry record ever since Boys and Girls [released in 1985]."
