I wonder if that’s claptons 335 in the film

[@coolmacatrain9434]

I doubt it. It's pretty much accepted that Jerry Donahue sold Eric his 335 a few nights before the Albert Hall concert in November 1968.

U can literally see what it seems to be a bigsby or a gibson vibrola on that thing ehich could be a 345 or 355 if there's that varitone switch on it. Claptons just a basic es 335 with a trapezoid enlays only.

​​@@coolmacatrain9434 clapton was with the yardbirds or with john mayall and the blues breakers at that time before even using that es 335 even if he was spotted playing one in a yardbirds gig but he extensively used the les paul after he left the yardbirds.
