Eric Clapton's Ferrari Symphony: When Guitars Meet 12 Cylinders
Renowned guitarist Eric Clapton's dual passion for music and classic cars, especially Ferraris, is illuminated. From his iconic 365 GTC to custom creations like the SP12 EC, delve into the symphony of speed and style in Clapton's remarkable collection.
Eric Clapton is well known as one of the world’s greatest guitarists and singer-songwriters, but what fewer people know is that he is also a leading classic car collector. Ferraris are his main love, a passion that began in the late 1960s, encouraged by his friendship with another petrolhead and Ferrari owner, George Harrison. As Clapton explains in “Clapton, The Autobiography”, published in 2007 by Broadway Books, for him, it was the Beatles guitarist’s 365 GTC that lit the spark.
Here, in the year that sees Clapton turning 78, we give you a selection of his most important Ferraris: a “best of” collection, as it were.
