2009 Fender Eric Clapton Artist Series "Blackie" stratocaster in a Fender waterfall case. This guitar is all original, in great used condition, has some minor swirls but no deep scratches, gouges, etc. I am the second owner and have had it for 6-7 years. I did not get a case with it, but added the Fender case being offered with this guitar. It has the vintage Noiseless pickups and Clapton set up. Own a guitar for one of the greatest guitar players all time. On line used one range in the $1300 to $1,700 or more with tax and shipping. New at Amazon or Sweetwater, with only a gig bag would cost you $2,380, so save over $1,000 and if you keep it in good shape, it will only increase in value. You certainly would not lose anything. This is an Artist Series guitar, which by new price is higher than a basic USA stratocaster. I see many American USA stratocasters listed locally on various platforms for more than my asking price of this artist series guitar. Seems to me a Artist Series, Eric Clapton should be worth more than a standard USA strat.
