Overview

Slowhand sound and style.

Experience the renowned style and feel of one of rock's most legendary guitarists with the Fender Eric Clapton Stratocaster. Built with special features approved by Slowhand himself, this signature model Strat delivers exceptional comfort, dynamic sound-shaping controls and versatile tone that makes Clapton's iconic blues rock tones accessible to players at every level. Its premium features include a soft V-shaped neck profile favored by Clapton for smooth playability, as well as revolutionary TBX and active mid-boost circuits that provide a vast tonal palette. The alder body resonates with rich, full sustain, while three Vintage Noiseless pickups send pristine Strat tone to your amp. With the blocked tremolo stabilizing tuning, you can dive into Clapton-inspired solos with confidence. For discerning guitarists, the Eric Clapton Stratocaster is the ultimate way to harness Slowhand's influential blues power.

With a Soft V-Shaped Neck Profile for Comfortable Fretting

The soft V-shaped neck has a smooth, rounded feel that makes it easy to play fast licks up and down the maple fingerboard. Its comfortable profile provides a perfect fit for guitarists with larger hands, with a shape that allows your thumb to extend comfortably over the edge while soloing. The modern 9.5" radius feels familiar and fast for bending notes and complex chords.

With Revolutionary TBX and Active Mid-Boost Circuits for Tonal Versatility

The TBX control lets you go from vintage '50s tones to '80s-style presence with the turn of a knob, while the mid-boost circuit adds up to 25dB for a smooth, warm tone. Together, these give you an arsenal of Strat sounds perfect for blues, rock, pop, country and more. The five-way pickup selector switches seamlessly between crystal-clear Vintage Noiseless single-coils.

With a Blocked Tremolo to Keep Tuning Stable

Just like Clapton prefers, the tremolo bridge has a wood block installed to prevent the bridge from moving, keeping the Strat in tune even with heavy use. Bend and vibrate strings without losing your tuning stability.

With an Alder Body for Rich, Full Sustain

The classic tonewood choice of Fender's iconic Stratocasters, the lightweight alder body resonates with singing sustain and dynamic response. Combined with the soft V-shaped neck, it rings out with deep lows, sparkling highs and excellent note separation.
