Description
From the Yardbirds to Cream to his solo career, it's hard to argue with the only three-time inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Surpassing 50 years of influential blues and rock, there are few musicians who hold up like Eric Clapton, and in tribute of that Martin awarded him his own signature guitar. Since its initial release in 1996 and based on Eric's guitar of choice for his iconic MTV Unplugged performance, the 000-28EC has gained major popularity and for good reason. Its body construction combines Sitka Spruce with East Indian Rosewood, creating a long-cherished, balanced tone. Elegance is in the subtleties - the fine herringbone binding and rosette paired with the abalone diamond fret markers perfectly capture the style and class of this legendary guitar. Professionally set up & ready to play straight out of the case.
