The Story

000-28EC Eric Clapton Natural 2002

Based on the 000 from his iconic MTV Unplugged performance, this lightly used Martin 000-28EC features traditional Martin construction with some signature appointments. It was built in 2002. A Sitka spruce top is mated to Indian rosewood for the back and sides for a full, wide-ranging sound. The mahogany neck is topped with an ebony fingerboard and features Mr. Clapton's signature inlaid at the 20th fret. The guitar has Colosi bridge pins installed, and it is missing a strap button on the bottom of the guitar. A non-original hard case is included. The guitar plays wonderfully, and is in overall excellent cosmetic condition.

Includes: Non-Original Hardshell Case
