I post just a small raction / correction notice of APRS mbp06:
The finish of the pickguard which poses problem is the plastic that can be removed from the pickguard for storing and transporting the guitar before it is sold. It prvu to be removed to the Owner 'the happy days of the purchase ends up with a brand new pickguard, no scratches. It's the same on the new plupoart guitars. (On door grips mtaliques cars too - sometimes a R21 crosses a 10 or 15 who still has the blue plastic films proctection! :-))

The V-neck then a does not mean that it is strait and wider at the nut in the treble. The strata gnral (and Clapton is one of them) are 42 mm wide at nut and width in the acute and fixed the width of the "pocket" of the body and attaches the handle and do never change.
The V is the profile, the shape of the dove, the o comes to rest the palm of the hand. It can be said U, C, V. The V of the trs Clapton is not pronounced but enhances the agreements with the thumb above the handle rather than the bars. He notes especially the top of the handle.

UTILIZATION

Nothing special to say, it's a strat.Sauf:
- The boost that brings Polivalente bringing the round to clean sounds, and SETTING THE saturation at hand.
- I heard that the TBX was not good mnage with microphones. It is probably true because he does withdraw from MODEL Clapton Custom Shop. It would tend "choke" a little mics. I speak in the conditional because I did not try to remove it.

SOUNDS

The sound of the vintage noiseless is very (too) clean. We do not feel like dirty some strata can sound just by attacking the strings differently. This is not a default, it is a CHARACTERISTICS!

OVERALL OPINION

Nine, I think it's an instrument a bit expensive. on the other hand of Occastions between 1100 and 1300 euros, seems much fairer.
