Eric Clapton

According to the sources below, Clapton used an Orange 2 x 12 Projector Column while in Derek and the Dominos (as can be seen from the stencil on the chassis), before moving it to his home studio. Clapton later gave it to the stage manager of his 13 January 1973 Rainbow Theatre concert. Decades later, in May 2019, Rock Star Guitars sold the cabinet via Vintage & Rare, upon which it ended up in the collection of Tune Your Sound.

Rock Stars Guitars, "ERIC CLAPTON’S ORANGE 2×12 CABINET USED WITH DEREK AND THE DOMINOS"

This Orange 2×12 speaker cabinet was formerly owned and used by Eric Clapton. This fantastic relic from the classic rock era was used with Derek and the Dominos (it still bears the stencils), then put to use in Eric’s home studio. You can see a series of stains on the top from these studio days, from a reel of tape that rested on the cabinet for years, and two razor blades that rusted. In the late 1970’s Eric cleared out his studio to make room for cars, and gave this Orange cabinet to a technician who was working for him from time to time. Comes with a direct letter of provenance from the technician. Please in inquire for price.

Vintage & Rare, "Orange / Eric Clapton 2x12 / 1970 / Orange / Amp"

Eric Clapton's Orange 2 x 12 speaker cabinet with "DEREK AND THE DOMINOS" stencilled on it. This was given by Eric in the 1970s to the stage manager of his Rainbow Theatre comeback gig, which featured Pete Townshend, etc. It is dirty and has marks from Ampex tape reels and razor blades from Eric's home studio, which is where it was kept. Never been opened since Eric gave it away. Shipping is extra, this is heavy!
