Claptons former 58' Custom

[Todd Louis]

So I'm sitting here at work and looking at The Les Paul Leg... and I came across Albert Lee holding Eric's 58' custom.
Any one know how this guitar was weird?
Stand Custom way or something different?

And any one have more Pic's
Where is the guitar today?

 

[TM1]

Todd, what's the Les Paul Leg? As far as I know, Eric's(now Albert Lee's) Custom was wired the stock way they were all wired then:
pu sel up=Neck
pu sel mid= middle & bridge
pu sel down= bridge

Oh so Eric didn't modify it.

I'm reading Tony Bacon's Million Dollar Les Paul, and there's quite a bit of text on Eric's Customs...and Albert Lee's, and James Patrick Page's...etc.

Some bloke named Wittrock is quoted in the book as well...:hmm

I am pretty sure Albert Lee now owns the 3 p/u Custom. EC gifted it to Albert.
