New Clapton Signature amps

[indeedido]

Anyone seen this (these)? I'm not a huge Clapton fan but like to watch new gear. Looks like three models:

Tremolux (based on '50s Deluxe)
Twinolux (based on '57 twin)
Vibro Champ

Saw something about this yesterday, hadn't had a chance to check 'em out...

I don't know the price point, but I expect it to be high!

[jhale667]

Probably not cheap. :D


I had a Vibro Champ as a kid, my first amp actually. Probably the one piece of gear I regret getting rid of.

... I'm not a huge Clapton fan...

Do I need to send you my collection for a few months?

Albums, that is.

Maybe you missed a couple of the great Slowhand tracks.

Just from the title of this thread I knew they would have to be old Fenders, lol.....

Ha, maybe so. No I like Clapton don't get me wrong, I'm just not a huge fan. I dig the pre Soldano tone.

It's half way to the EVH brand. Got a big EC right on front!

Will these amps also attenuate your balls to a more Clapton-esque size?

i was thinking "Slowhand Gear" as the brand name.

[Hardrock69]

I can just imagine an ignorant Eric Clapton fan going "Wow! If I buy one of these I can play even slower!"

[twonabomber]

yeah, i wasn't thinking people who became Clapton fans during his MOR phase would know him as Slowhand.

kinda like the older guy who i was talking to in line for Police tickets...he's asking if i had heard Sting's lute CD and i'm thinking "he's not going to like this show."

I'm wondering, if I bought this amp my playing could be boring too...


(Actually I'm a big fan of vintage Fender combo's)
