where can i get a sined EC strat
 

Please don't post if you don't know.

You don't. You either get Eric to sign yours, or you keep your eyes on ebay, auctions, classifieds, and a whole bunch of other places, and hope against all probability someone sells one. Find out if Eric is doing any clinics in your area and if theres a chance he'll be doing a meet and greet.

Other than that, you're **** outta luck.

why would you want one? the man is severely overrated...
perhaps even more so than the beatles and radiohead combined

You need to die i spent $1200 and $400 tickets and 10 hour car ride to see his concert at jones beach you need to go **** your self and the beatles made rock and with out them what would we have.

One more thing he has more hits then any other artist ever
my fathers eyes
layla
tears in heaven
after midnight with jj cale
sunshine of your love with jack bruce ginger backer and george harrison
i shot the sherif cover of a bob marly song
cocaine
and many many more

Just forge his sig on an old Fender...no one will ever know the difference. ;)















































Providing you spell his name right!

wtf is up with guitar trolls lately?

so you spent enough money to buy a signature series EC strat to see him in concert instead. i would have bought the guitar. no need to insult other members. most people agree clapton has not aged well. he was great back in the 60s, but that was a good 40 years ago. people have moved on unfortunately his style did not.

chuck berry / jerry lee lewis / elvis presley made rock and roll. the beatles popularized it after dumping a bunch of pop records on the public first.

as far as clapton's hits. you do realize how WRONG his cover of 'i shot the sheriff' is right?

Does he realise how wrong this is too;


...not even close.

So you wasted a lot of time and money. big deal.

By the way:

* The Beatles are the most successful group in the UWC.
* The Beatles are the group with the most number-one singles in the UWC.
* According to the United World Chart, the Beatles have 16 of the 100 most successful tracks of all time, and also 7 of the 100 most successful albums in history.


Eric Clapton is nowhere CLOSE. After The Beatles he still has to contend with Michael Jackson, Madonna, Elvis, and Elton John.


Also, heres a list of records: Record-Breakers and Trivia - everyHit.com

Eric is mentioned on that page ONCE, and the song in question is a collaboration with Cher. The record in question is 'Longest Time For An Artist To Get To Number 1'

[QUOTE=GuitarBizarre;528449]So you wasted a lot of time and money. big deal.

He has more hits cuz he is alive most everybody else is dead and has all that time :finger: and anyway he was so close with the beatles he was friends with george till the end even with the hole patty boyd thing.

What do you care?

You think someone called Claton is god, so Eric isn't your favourite artist.

:rofl:

Here just print this out & stick it on your guitar

Haha, sine. Yay math.

Now we're just going off on a tangent. ROFL

[QUOTE=clatonisgod;528528]Maybe you missed my point.

We are a music community. We are NOT an Eric Clapton fanboy anal rimming for the sake of it community.

This means that you're more than welcome to like eric clapton, but you shouldn't expect everyone else to like him aswell, and you certainly shouldn't be doing what you are doing, which is posting absolute crap to make yourself look like a ****ing tool, and insulting people because they don't agree that Eric Clapton is god.

He isn't, he never was, and frankly I think he's vastly over rated.

Now please consider the following 2 options:

1) Learn to spell, leave the ridiculous fanboyism at the door, and start contributing to the forums without being a total **** to everyone.
2) ****ing leave, and go to the Eric Clapton forums instead. You're winning no friends so far and if you continue to post fanboy drivel you will only piss off a lot of people.

On the subject of Strats, i believe the EC signiture series has the tremelo blocked off?

I`ve just had a tech do the same to mine (as i never use the whammy bar) but interestingly as soon as i got it back home i realised how much i used to lean my right hand on the bridge and give it a wobble! Damn! Now the dilemma of whether to change it back? Its a tough life...

i used a rolled up piece of corrugated cardboard to block the bridge in my strat. it still gives a minimal amount of give so i can still either rest my hand or dig my fingers into the back of the bridge to pull it out just enough to get a slight wobble.

i HAD to block my bridge though, even with 5 springs it would pull out by almost a half inch.
