Clapton has had enough press .

Give me a break


He could poop on a guitar and charge a fee.

I will sign your guitar for free!

hi i got this from my guitar one mag on Eric Clapton. from what i know it is a early 60's sunburst tele custom (about 61-ish) and a strat neck attached instead of a reg tele neck.


Hope this helps!

Clapton has said that the reason he put a strat neck on was becasue he didn't like tele necks

I read an article where Clapton talked about that guitar. It's just a run of the mill tele custom (3-color-sunburst with white binding) and maple necked Strat neck. He said that he wanted people to wonder about it.

Call your local all parts dealer and order the body and the neck.

I'm building a Andy Summers Telecaster the same way.

Stratocaster necks normally don't fit tele bodies, jou must reshape
the neckpocket on the body. Strat necks are rounded and tele necks
are more straight near the last fret end.

I've got a brand new allparts replacement tele neck with a strat-style v countour to it. It has the tinted nitro finish and it's never been installed. It's maple with a maple fretboard and the allparts necks are licensed by fender, so the specs are almost exact. This will fit in your tele body. I've got to sell it to fund another fender purchase, so I'll let it go for $150 shipped inside the continental US. Let me know if you're interested.
