Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Eric Clapton Signature Stratocaster is a refined take on a true classic, blending iconic Fender feel with powerful tonal versatility. Its select alder body and maple neck with a soft “V” profile create a smooth, comfortable playing experience, while the trio of Vintage Noiseless pickups deliver clear, expressive tones without unwanted noise. The onboard TBX tone circuit and active mid boost open up a wide range of sounds, from crisp cleans to thick, singing leads. Finished in timeless black, this USA-made Strat is as inspiring as it is dependable—a dynamic performer and a smart investment for players seeking legendary tone with modern flexibility!

From Fender

Built to Clapton's specs, the Custom Shop Eric Clapton Signature Stratocaster® guitar features an alder body, special soft V-shaped maple neck, three Vintage Noiseless™ pickups, blocked tremolo and Clapton's signature on the headstock.
