Fender USA Telecaster TPP "Eric Clapton Blind Faith" SH 2018 - Sunburst

A secondhand Fender USA Telecaster customised to Eric Clapton "Blind Faith" specs by UK luthiers The Painted Player.
 
One of the most short-lived 'super-groups' of all time, 'Blind Faith' debuted at a free concert in Hyde Park, London, on June 7th 1969 and became an instant hit with fans.  Releasing only one untitled (and infamous) album, they toured until August 24th of that year before breaking up shortly thereafter. The 'Blind Faith' Telecaster was Clapton's most unique guitar, combining a 1962 Fender Telecaster Custom body with original 3-way switching (bridge, neck, neck - tone bypass) and the neck from his favourite Stratocaster, "Brownie", allowing him to enjoy the bluesy tones of a Tele while still enjoying the same comfort and performance that he had always enjoyed from his loyal Fender Stratocaster!
 
The real deal, Fender USA production quality, replicating the original 62’ Telecaster perfectly in every detail, what better way to begin the process of crafting a stunning tribute to a classic hybrid, combined with a Fender USA 50’s re-issue Stratocaster neck and original switching, this is possibly the finest “Blind Faith” playing experience in the world… Includes complimentary Hardcase.
