This is an original 1988 Fender stratocaster Eric Clapton Special Edition electric guitar for sale. The Eric Clapton Signature Model Stratocaster was designed by Fender Guitars (U.S.) to recreate the look and feel of Clapton’s favorite Stratocaster, Blackie, but with modern electronics that could produce a fatter sound when needed. This guitar was introduced in 1988. You’ve got one volume and two tone knobs. The second tone is the compression sound. The more you turn it clockwise, the fatter the sound gets. The neck is one-piece maple construction with 22 frets and a small headstock. The frets are carefully positioned which allows the action to be set very low without creating a buzz. It has a white single-ply pickguard. Fender then created a prototype with three Fender Gold Lace Sensor pickups (neck, middle, bridge) and a circuit that had a 25db boost in the midrange at around 500 Hz. The mid-range boost is controlled from the second tone knob, which provides gradual increments in mid-range boost. At the “full” setting, the Eric Clapton Signature Strat takes on the tonal characteristics of a Gibson Les Paul. The first tone knob controls the TBX tone boost. It adds clarity to the high-end working in conjunction with the mid-range boost to compensate for the lack of high-end when it is set to “full”. Original hard case included.
