Fender Stratocaster Eric Clapton Signature

Avg price: $2,062.37

Eric Clapton keeps the Fender Stratocaster Eric Clapton Signature guitar within his collection, though he primarily plays the Custom Shop version. This information is highlighted in the Fender Artist Series.

This is a rare gold hardware Fender Eric Clapton signature Stratocaster in Olympic White finish and was given to John Entwistle by Eric Clapton himself. Entwistler sold the guitar in 2003 for 2.400 GBP.

This guitar was built by Mark Kendrick of Fender Custom Shop as a spare black Stratocaster to be used by Clapton during the phenomenally successful Cream Reunion concerts at the Royal Albert Hall, London, 2 ? 6 May 2005, and Madison Square Garden, New York, 24 ? 26 October 2005. It features very pronounced birds-eye maple neck and has no string retainer due to the use of staggered tuners.

Eric Clapton confirmed that he was sent this 1998 Fender Stratocaster Eric Clapton Signature Model by J.W. Black of Fender. He has played it a little.

This 2008 Fender Stratocaster Eric Clapton Signature Model is one of a pair custom-built for Clapton and was used extensively on stage as one of his two main Fender guitars during his recent tours including his appearances with Stevie Winwood and Jeff Beck.

This 1994 Fender Stratocaster Eric Clapton Signature Model is a pair to the cream Strat in lot 13. Clapton used this guitar on stage in the mid 1990s, and on various film scores including The Van.

According to Lee Dickson this 1993 Fender Stratocaster Eric Clapton Signature Model was kept as a rehearsal guitar, it is the only Strat made for Clapton with these Texas Special pickups. Clapton commented that he prefers Lace Sensor pickups.

Lee Dickson and Larry Brooks of Fender dreamt up the name Whitey for this guitar because it looked like a traditional Strat with visible pole pieces in keeping with Clapton's other named guitars, Blackie and Brownie. Clapton apparently didn't use this name himself.

According to Eric Clapton's guitar technician - Lee Dickson, Clapton had a "..short-lived love affair.." with this 1996 Fender Stratocaster Eric Clapton Signature in custom midnight blue metallic finish. Clapton admits that he occasionally likes the colours of his Stratocasters to match his cars, he said however that he fancied owning a blue Strat long before he owned a blue Mercedes. He commissioned this custom colour which is actually a Mercedes paint.
