Clapton bids farewell to 'Blackie': Eric Clapton is ready to part with his legendary 'Blackie' guitar, during a sale of his most treasured instruments. The classic Fender Stratocaster is going under the hammer at Christie's in New York and is expected to fetch between £55,000 and £83,000. Blackie was Clapton's favourite guitar, accompanying him on stage and in recording sessions throughout the 1970s and 1980s.
