This is the most "upmarket" guitar Vintage has ever made. And for a good reason!

Eric Clapton during his Cream days, playing the original Fool SG
Each hand made Vintage® Icon Series™“Fool” guitar is a true, ‘one of a kind’ instrument, with unique artwork exquisitely and individually hand painted, in oils, in a faithful re-creation of the iconic guitar from1967, based upon artwork commissioned by the late George Harrison of The Beatles, for the giant, world famous, mural painted on the wall of London’s famous Beatles-owned Apple Boutique by the Dutch art collective, known as “The Fool”.

The art collective went on to re-create the vibe of the Apple Boutique mural, in miniature, on one of George Harrison’s guitars, which Harrison had given to his friend Eric Clapton.

The guitar has come to be known as “The Fool” after its creators. The original guitar was used almost constantly by Eric Clapton in Cream, and eventually ended up in the hands of legendary US performer, Todd Rundgren.

“The Fool” is one of the most instantly recognisable guitars in the world. Paying homage to an earlier era of psychedelia, and some truly exceptional, all time classic guitar sounds, the Vintage® Icon series™ “VS6 Fool” is memorabilia brought to life, an exciting salute to a time of unrestrained artistic interaction, and creative freedom in pop art and rock music.

Those who know Vintage, know that they make great guitars that are fantastic value for money - and now they have done what we always thought they could - gone upmarket and created a unique, truly exceptional guitar...

Que je t\'aime ! ! !

— Dominique OBAYA November 2, 2009

And I love her so ........... I just buy her few days ago , I dreamt of her so hard and so often ! !
Thanks to Simon at Dolphin to make it happen !
Next in French ...; I\'m not too fluent with Shakespeare language ......
J\'ai vraiment beaucoup de plaisir avec cette merveille ! le son est celui que j\'espérai et la finition est impeccable ! C\'est ma 7 ème guitare et assurément la plus originale ! ! Je mme regarde jouer dans un miroir et j\'imagine Eric interprétant \" sunshine of your love \" .... bien sûr je ne joue pas aussi bien , mais avec cette Lady mes doigts en demandent encore et encore ! Je partage cette magnifique guitare avec mon fils qui étudie la musique dans un collège spécialisé à Marciac , la capitale du Jazz dans le sud ouest de la France , son parrain n\'est autre que Wynton Marsalis ! Nul doute que ce grand musicien appréciera ce bel instrument ! Merci encore à tous mes amis de Dolphin Music , et j\'invite mes amis musiciens à vite découvrir cette maison !
Hooray for Dolphin

Price Matching

Dolphin Music brings you the best music gear at the best price. We are committed to superior customer service and have extensive product knowledge. However, in today’s market we may not always be aware of all the price fluctuations of the products we sell. So, we offer competitive price matching.

Please fill in the following form to request a price match.

What prices we will match?

We will compare prices for new, direct from manufacturer items, excluding any add-ons, options, or other special features which may affect price.

The item must be new and must be the exact same make and model (ie, the same size, version, etc.).

Since our postage charges are lower than most of the shops, the comparison price must be a "delivered cost" to the consumer.

If we are unable to verify the previous condition, we will notify you that we require additional information to verify the Price Match request. Our goal is to make this policy simple and hassle-free. We are committed to responding to your requests quickly.

The price you have found must be the Internet Retailer's regular, advertised price for a current and available item. The price you found cannot be a closeout, discontinued, blemished, year-end, inventory reduction, or any other type of advertised sale price.

Price Matching requests may not be combined with any other promotional discounts, specials or other price incentives.

Prices and price sources you have found which do not meet the above criteria or in which incomplete or inaccurate information is provided to us, will not be approved for our Price Match.

Please select your country/region

Choose the region you are shopping from to view products in your currency.
