Amazing what you find when you go through older photos.
The Fender Stratocaster, colloquially known as the Strat, is a model of electric guitar designed from 1952 into 1954 by Leo Fender, Bill Carson, George Fullerton and Freddie Tavares. The Fender Musical Instruments Corporation has continuously manufactured the Stratocaster from 1954 to the present. It is a double-cutaway guitar, with an extended top "horn" shape for balance. Along with the Gibson Les Paul and Fender Telecaster, it is one of the most-often emulated electric guitar shapes.

Die Fender Stratocaster „Blackie“ ist eine der legendärsten E-Gitarren der Rockgeschichte und das langjährige Hauptinstrument von Eric Clapton. Wegen extremer Abnutzung – der Hals war so oft abgeschliffen und neu bundiert worden, dass kein weiteres Abrichten mehr möglich war – schickte Clapton die Gitarre 1985 in den Ruhestand. Und im Juni 2004 ließ er „Blackie“ beim Auktionshaus Christie’s in New York für die damalige Rekordsumme von 959.500 US-Dollar versteigern. 😎👌
The Fender Stratocaster "Blackie" is one of the most legendary electric guitars in rock history and was Eric Clapton's primary instrument for many years. Due to extreme wear—the neck had been sanded down and refretted so often that further leveling was no longer possible—Clapton retired the guitar in 1985. Then, in June 2004, he had "Blackie" auctioned off at Christie’s in New York for the then-record sum of $959,500. 😎👌
