Someone's got to say it, it's good because he's playing a Gibson. Clapton is better on a Gibson.
That is such a true statement. Not sure what his fascination is with Strats--unless it's the endorsement deal. Even at that, his Strat is specially designed with a mid-boost to make it sound like--you guessed it--a Gibson. But I've never heard him sound better, or even play better, than he did on that 335. I just happened to be listening to the Live Cream record today and his tone was exquisite. Think that was all the 335.
