If I buy this, will I sound like Clapton?

This is the dumbest thing I've seen in a long, long time:

Hey Joe, quick... let's stencil "organissimo" on your Ibanez case so in 40 years people will make replicas of it!

"The case was aged to look like it was stored between a Hammond B3 and the front seats of a minivan packed to the rim with gear, just like organissimo had to do back in 2005!"

That case copy is hilarious.

Here is my '79 Ibanez Artist 2630. I spotted it in a pawn shop for only $599! In its OHSC too - with the key. Needs a pickguard though. Any ideas?

I had to have it rewired though, because the coil tap wasn't finctional. After that repair, and a good set up, this baby plays like a dream. Being a closet guitar player, it has much more potential than I do!

I agree, but emulation is a funny thing - let's not forget all the horn players who started shooting up because they thought it might help them get closer to Bird - at least the Clapton pedal doesn't require any needles -
