This LSD-influenced paint job was done by the Fool, a couple of hippies whom the Beatles discovered. The Fool designed clothes and albums for quite a number of classic British rockers back in the Sixties. During live performances, paint chips literally flaked and flecked off the neck while Clapton played. Eventually, all the excess paint was permanently removed. It may have looked cool but it couldn’t handle the workload.
Clapton’s other psychadelic guitar was a Danelectro, which he used while he was in Blind Faith.
