Eric Clapton, one of the most influential guitarists in rock and blues history, is known for his refined tone and expressive playing style. His choice of gear reflects his pursuit of sonic perfection. Among his signature instruments is the Gibson Custom Shop Eric Clapton 1958 Les Paul Custom, a high-end recreation of his legendary “Beano” era guitar.
Clapton is also closely associated with Fender, particularly his Signature Stratocaster in Black and the Todd Krause Master built Custom Shop model, tailored to his exacting standards. For acoustic work, he favours the Martin 000-28EC, available in both Sunburst and Natural finishes—guitars that deliver the warmth and clarity his unplugged performances are known for.
Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibrations into an electrical signal, which is then amplified. Unlike acoustic guitars, they rely on amplification for volume and tone shaping, making them highly versatile in genres like rock, blues, jazz, and metal. Electric guitars come in many body styles—solid, semi-hollow, and hollow—and feature different pickup configurations, neck types, and hardware. From smooth clean tones to aggressive distortion, they offer a wide sonic range, making them the backbone of modern guitar music.
Signature refers to instruments, pedals, or amps designed in collaboration with or endorsed by a well-known musician. These products often feature customised specifications, unique aesthetics, or special features that reflect the artist’s personal style and sound preferences. Signature gear allows fans and players to access the tones and playability inspired by their favourite players, offering a distinct and personalised musical experience.
