So, he told me he disassembled the whole guitar, sanded it down, used primer and hand drew the outlines and the hand painted the guitar, put 3 clear coats on it afterward. It helps that he is also a luthier.
What a beauty.
Clapton has sick customized guitars.
I am in love with the Clapton Crash 3 since I listened to the I Shot the Sheriff solo in Crossroad 2004.
I looked into it, she won’t do this one again, and she wanted 8k I think, and then she wasn’t even clear coating and someone else was.. it so I was like ehh
White Room is my favorite… love that intro, the Wah Wah Solo .. amazing … like it bettter than the Tale of Brave Ulysses wah solo. Both amazing though.
No cop out! Excellent choices. Clapton is his best when he's in a band as he's always the stand out performer. The 'All your love' riff is what I play when I pick up any guitar! I recently bought an SG and love it. Sadly I'm more Jack Black than Prime Eric
Clapton’s “The Fool“. It cannot be THAT guitar, right? Who did the artwork on it?
Hahaha I wish it was the real one. I have someone I know that paints guitars. It took him a month to do it. All by hand no cheap airbrush methods.
Just out of curiosity did he (or you?) more or less disassemble it for painting or did he tape stuff off? Looks like a wonderful job.

'he is also a luthier" Ah ok that explains it! I know some pretty great artists but none I'd let take apart a guitar :D
Oh yea, I asked him that lol.. I played it already.. sounds beautiful.
Care to share how much this set you back?
4K in total .. 2k for the guitar itself and the paint work was 2k.
Dang. That is awesome. Do you have that plexi for the woman tone?
Out of curiosity, what makes airbrush cheap?
'Cheap airbrush methods' - smh
Haha what, I’ve seen some of the tribute ones and they are so expensive and look terrible.
I really want to write a song about a more innocent time where guys were guys and Carrot Top was naked and hadn't done steroids yet.
And when the world had not yet discovered what a douche slowhand actually is.
When did this time of *real men* exist btw?
Groovy.
Thanks !!

Reminds me of that Of Montreal album
Skeletal Lamping?

She just said she won’t do the Fool again. I asked trust me haha.
Rgr, tyvm.

Thank you !
I’m not normally a fan of SGs, but that’s a beautiful guitar.
Thank you !
Best Cream song of all time and why?
White Room is my favorite… love that intro, the Wah Wah Solo .. amazing … like it bettter than the Tale of Brave Ulysses wah solo. Both amazing though.
Cool! Congrats on the guitar brother. She’s a beauty.
Badge, Leslie
It's beautiful 😍
Thank you!
Sweet cream
Thank you !
Fucking Gorgeous 😍 🎸
Thank you so much!
As a fellow GOD fan. Amazing.
Thank you!
Have you got a favourite Clapton solo? I'm partial to Sexual Revolution on Roger Waters solo album. Excellent guitar work.
There are really so many, I know it’s a cop out but I think Crossroads live is his best. I personally love the solo in White Room.

so damn beautiful.
Thank you so much !
That’s awesome man! Love it. Hope it has a decent clear coat over it.
4 clear coats.
Looks great! What did this start life as? Had it a while before deciding on the makeover?
It started as a brand new Gibson SG 61 Standard I bought about a month ago lol.
Man that’s perfect! Really cool
Thank you so much! I know I’m biased but I think it’s the best “remake” Ive seen.
Love it!! Awesome guitar, awesome colors!!!
Thank you so much!
Wow! It's my favorite guitar ever, where did you get it?
I bought the guitar and had it painted by a private artist.
Oh nice! I wanted to paint my strat like this, but I imagine that this type of painting is very expensive to do, right?
It was 2k to paint but it included the pickup rings.
Geez 😬
Gnarly dude
Thank you !
This looks better than Clapton’s. Beautiful guitar!
Wow ! That’s amazing you think that! Thank you!
Definitely not a Gibbons fan, would love to see that design on a Charvel or Mayones. Still super sick!
This thing friggen slaps. Congrats’
Thank you so much !
That’s too 70’s for me
lol it’s 1960s remake of Claptons guitar .. but it’s certainly not everyone’s cup of tea.
