Eric Clapton guitar auction raises over $2 million
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 11 March 2011
Eric Clapton’s previously reported auction to sell off 70 of his guitars in aid of the Crossroads Center in Antigua, a rehab clinic he set up in the late 90s, went ahead this week and raised $2.15 million.
One guitar, a replica of a Fender Stratocaster the guitarist auctioned for $1 million seven years ago, fetched $83,000, more than double its estimated value of $30,000.
