According to Lee Dickson, Eric Clapton's guitar technician since 1979, Eric played this guitar for a brief period on stage. The labelling on the case indicates that it went on tour in the early 1980s although to date we have been unable to find any photographs of Clapton playing it on stage.

The vendor worked for WEA Records and received this guitar in 1989 at the company's sales conference, as a reward for his high sales record.
