The Story

Fender Eric Clapton Signature Stratocaster Mercedes Blue 2018

This is a very good condition Fender Custom Shop Teambuilt Eric Clapton Signature Strat that is the top of the line in his series of signature instruments. Everything on it is top notch, built of a select alder body, a soft "V" shaped maple neck, 9.5" fretboard radius with vintage style frets, and three Noiseless Strat pickups with an active mid boost, which really helps in cutting through with leads and solos. The guitar has fretwear across the board through the first three frets and fretwear under the G-string until the 10th fret - none of which affects playability. There's light buckle rash around the body and some small dings on the back of the body on the lower bout - it's a perfect Clapton Strat for those who don't want to worry about putting that first ding on it! The COA booklet is included, however bent from being held in the pouch of the case.

Includes: Original Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Tremolo Arm
