A 2007 Candy Green Clapton Strat! Loving it so far.

Isn't it the 25th anniversary of the Clapton signature guitars soon (within a couple of years)?

Hope Fender so something special for the anniversary. It's such a iconic guitar for them.

Nice green strat Cookieman, bet you're lovin it.

Great idea, Nikininja.

To celebrate the EC Strat's 25th anniversary, I suggest Fender to make a special edition run of the guitar in tobacco sunburst with a set of Gold Lace pickups, both in regular and Custom Shop guises.

Eventually we can also reissue the rosewood-neck versions of the instrument.

Yes I know thats why I figured it was a good time to grab one before they become too scarce. Well that and it was always my favorite color of the E.C.s.

Cookieman...awesome score...the EC's are great playing guitars and to get one in the fairly rare green 8)

Chrome I like your idea...a sunburst EC would be great...come on Fender talk to EC and get him to agree on sunburst :!:

Very cool strat,not really seen that colour on a strat before, it's pretty cool. I quite like the sound of the Clapton strat, not had the opportunity to try one for myself though. Definitely have to, seeing all these nice ones!

Enjoy!

Drew :)
