Gibson Custom Issues Eric Clapton 335 Replica
These day if you ask which guitar Eric Clapton is famous for – most would respond with the good old Fender Stratocaster – however EC hasn’t always donned the Fender guitar throughout his long career. In his early years, with bands such as the Yardbirds, John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers and Cream – a lot of his fantastic tone came from Gibson’s in particular the ES-335.
In 2005 Gibson celebrated this association by releasing a limited edition (250) of the Eric Clapton Crossroads ES-335 which is a re-creation of Clapton’s original 335 (now owned by the guitar center).
Featuring a maple body with the traditional 335 double cutaway design and the two “f” holes. The guitar has a mahogany neck with a 22 fret rosewood fingerboard. Binding on the guitar is cream throughout – Gibson have released the guitar in a red cherry finish.
Electronics wise the guitar features two custom Burst Buster pickups and the traditional two tone, two volume control configuration. Clapton’s tone during his “335 period” was when he invented his womantone – dark – moody and full of sustain – Gibson have reproduced the sound to a tee (think Les Paul but with more versatility)
Gibson have worked hard to make the guitar to be a close replica of Clapton’s 63 model – the paint job for example has been faded – components such as the tuners are close replica’s the neck has been digitally scanned to ensure that the re-issue is as close to an exact match as you’ll find – all this culminates in a very satisfying instrument.
Clapton’s guitar was auctioned and fetched in excess of $800,000 dollars and while the reissue won’t cost quite as much the run of 250 which sold out in double quicktime – the guitars still have a hefty price when they come up for auction and you can expect to pay in excess of $10,000 dollars

买把64R凑合吧…… **** Hidden Message *****
One of only 250 made - this rare replica of the Cream last performance guitar is available.
Cherry red and reliced to the same degree as Claptons - this guitar has been carefully stored since new.
Comes complete with relic case. 听说琴箱也很好看的 335啊,觉得老克最合适还是335了! 神器袭来。。 当时有几个鬼佬就对于Eric到底有没有用这个琴展开过一次调查....
最后是任何有记录的资料上都没说他在tour上用过这把琴, 只有快离开yardbirds的时候用过好像
可以去mylespual上找 好琴 要顶的 原帖由 oursonvie 于 2010-8-3 22:00 发表 http://bbs.guitarschina.com/images/common/back.gif

有意思,遇到同道中人了
不过是自传上确实说老克的 335 是他的第一把 GIBSON,而且还是个失误。本身他的偶像 FREEDY KING 是用 355 的
Yardbirds 时期都是 tele
‘Beano’时期怎么听都是 Les Paul
在 Cream 时期就更杂了,目前只有位数不多的一些影像资料可以看到 Cream 时期的 EC 用 335 的景象
但不管怎么说,EC with 335 实在是太经典了。不过这个复刻真的很垃圾的,和真正的 64 335 完全不是一个概念
琴颈接口的位置,护板的大小,尼龙制 saddles 的切口,truner 开口明显过大,指板木头很糟糕,inlay材质不正确,漆面的做旧很难看,等等等等
实在让人感受不到这是全球限量200多把的,向 EC 致敬的 matserpiece 真美 原帖由 cream1986 于 2010-8-5 13:44 发表 http://bbs.guitarschina.com/images/common/back.gif

哈哈哈, Gibson reissue一直很多毛病阿, 比如r9 bridge上面的那根弦, 都被骂到死了
说话这么多钱, 买一居然还不是完全复古spec
其实这些东西就这样了, 买不到vintage的就去买reissue吧
起码还是一个场出的, 哈哈哈 cream1986 发表于 2010-8-5 11:44
