Replaces Eric Clapton Stratocaster - Second Pre-Factory Version
Replaced by Eric Clapton Stratocaster - Second Series
FENDER SAYS
The Eric Clapton model was designed to recreate the look and feel of Eric's Favorite Strat, but with modern electronics that could provide a fatter sound when needed. Unique features include a special "V" shape neck, three Gold Fender-Lace Sensors, 25db active mid-boost circuit, and blocked tremolo bridge.
