Since the early \\u201970s, the guitar legend has trusted his 1960 \\u201cHitmaker\\u201d Strat to turn out chart toppers that have changed the course of music history and shaped cultures around the world. We explore its unusual origins and DNA as well as uncover some ordinary tools making extraordinary grooves.
Guitarist and producer Nile Rodgers has received virtually every significant honorific that exists for musical achievement. He\\u2019s a hall-of-famer twice over, having been inducted to both the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He\\u2019s won six Grammys, including the prestigious Lifetime Achievement award.
The accolades hardly begin to capture how monumentally important and influential Rodgers\\u2019 music career has been. Since beginning with his disco-funk-rock fusion outfit Chic in 1972, Rodgers has been pioneering musical language that, among other things, sparked the advent of hip-hop. He\\u2019s also the producer who introduced the world to Stevie Ray Vaughan via Bowie\\u2019s \\u201cLet\\u2019s Dance.\\u201d
Rodgers invited John Bohlinger and the PG team to the Chic show at Nashville\\u2019s Bridgestone Arena, where they met with his trusty tech Gert Marckx. Marckx took us through Rodgers\\u2019 streamlined touring rig, capped off with Rodgers\\u2019 holy grail guitar\\u2014the instrument that\\u2019s at least partially responsible for the sale of half a billion records around the world.
