This guitar was a collaboration between two master builders at Fender, Todd Krause and Mark Kendrick. This, the third addition to Clapton's collection of signature Stratocasters custom painted by graffiti artists, is by the artist 'Crash'.
Born in 1961 in New York City, 'Crash' has been described as a true pioneer of the Graffiti art movement. In the words of one biographer ...Using the IRT subway system as his launching pad, Crash established a visual link between the underground street life and the world above... His works are now exhibited and collected by private and public collections throughout the world.
