Once EC was "God" - now he's just richer than God. I've always admired his artistry - and some of the money he has is mine that I gladly sent his way. BUT - these celebrity "tribute" guitar and amp promotions always make me cringe - owning a "Lucille" won't help you play like BB any more than owning a Lennon Casino will help any of John's tone or creativity rub off on you. The celebs they pick out to endorse these cynical marketing ploys always lose a bit of my respect when they take the money and blow smoke. If they needed the $$$$ it would be one thing, but they don't - so why prostitute yourself?

Tablature Butler while I can totally appreciate that about putting your name on a guitar, I have to ask: have you played one of these classics? some of these repros are phenomenal copies of guitars that we mortals will most likely never see, let alone play. guitars like this one, while being a limited run, are a shot at owning that sound. and while im neither old nor young anymore, I love old guitars and own a few, but nothing like these. so they open a door for mortals to have the sound. but the ability? yeeeeeaaaaah, ill stick to rhythm, thanks. :-) happy playing!

Actually, I do play a replica guitar, in a manner of speaking. My prime guitar is a Tokai Springy Sound strat that is one of those "lawsuit" guitars, modeled in this case on a '59 strat. I sure couldn't afford the real thing either, but this one comes close enough to be a collector's item on its own merit. All the best...

It made me smile watching the video, that the first thing he did after plugging it in and picking a few notes, was to turn down the tone on the guitar. :)

+fishy paw Yes, a simple technique, more known back in his day of the late 60s for the "woman tone" as Lucas says above. A lot of younger players go full shred on the treble today, particularly piercing and not so pleasant when distorted, fuzzed, overdriven, etc. Roll back the tone knob a bit to lessen the treble, folks, it sounds so much better, rounded and smoother.

I wish people would stop banging on about this "old man" This man is one of the greatest stalwarts for the electric guitar, it's evolution and continuing popularity, we all get old I'm afraid -- even the Who and they didn't want to! I used to live just down the road from EC, fixed his classic car one time and even shared a Pub gig with him, he is nicest celebrity I've ever met, more than happy to share a chat with the ordinary guy/girl in the street. When in his younger days he was a "Guitar God" even Jimi befriended and admired him. He's kicked the fags and the drugs and still plays brilliantly today. If you love the electric guitar please have respect for Eric who has brought so much pleasure to so many people for decades --- and still does!

The truth is that were it not for Clapton, half the butt heads who denigrate him would be waiting tables. Oh, excuse me, they are. He has his flaws, and I'll jump on his case for those in a New York minute. But before you bare your ass bad mouthing him, look at the track record, the concerts, the albums, and the money he has made. Making money isn't easy, especially for a guitar player.

Agreed. He sold his guitars to literally fund the drug and alcohol rehabilitation of the islanders of Antigua, where Clapton of course has Crossroads Centre and has had a house there since the 80s. He is one of the nicest guitar gods out there. And he'll be the first to admit that when he was drunk he was an asshole, but after living the life he has and having close to 30 years of sobriety will bring a person a lot of perspective and humility, not to mention the Crossroads Centre that's continually working toward changing the lives of thousands of people from around the world every year from the throes of addiction. Eric is the man.

Eric Clapton is such a NICE guy. Saw him many years ago when he recorded one of his albums at Olympic Studios in Barnes before it shut down and turned in to a cinema or something like that. Eric stops has a chat and it is simply magical to hear him tuning up, a really great guitarist

Eric Clapton was right when he said your going to like this. he was absolutely right. it's great to hear him talk about how he got some of the guitars he played. George Harrison was just incredible. that was an AWESOME Les Paul such killer tone. the let down was it was about relic guitars I can't stand them.

I’ve known Eric Clapton for a long time, but haven’t really payed attention to him/his music until recently. I started playing guitar almost 2 months ago, and he is a big inspiration to me. I find it fascinating how he can play something on the spot! George is my favorite Beatle, and it makes me even happier that they we’re friends :)

Lol this might bum you out but did you know Eric ended up marrying George's ex wife? Pretty sure Clapton was hooking up with George's wife while they were married. The messed up part is they were bros so its kind of rotten. Although i will say george was forsure cheating on her while they were married most notably with ringo's wife lol. I should also say in their defense it was the 60's and 70's... you know, free love and all that jazz lmao. But it's not much of an excuse since both Clapton and George at that time of their fame could of gotten damn near any woman they wanted.

@@rtk90083 Yes, I’m very aware of that haha. George in fact did cheat on Pattie with Maureen (Ringo’s ex-wife). I know Eric did all of those things, but yes, it was the 60’s and 70’s, so it wasn’t uncommon sadly. Eric had a hard life even before becoming famous, but I’m glad he is much better and I really appreciate him for that. Btw, thank you for sounding more kind rather than some people who can be nasty :)

To me, his life has been like a dream. Although he has had the trials and tribulations we all have, the one thing that breaks my heart, other than the tragic death of his son, is the fact his father, who he never knew, lived his whole life not knowing Eric Clapton was his son.

With some effort involved - to doubt, it can't be done by money only - it is easier to do the things required to keep as fit and healthy as possible in your seventies, if money is not a problem. You know, personal trainers, dieticians and such... Some people also speak of notoriously costly special therapies in Switcherland, accecible only to the very rich. I mean, just look not just at Eric Clapton but also at Paul McCartney and especially at Ringo Starr...
