Trivia

• His maternal grandparents, who brought him up, had the surname of Clapp. His grandmother had previously been married to a man called Clapton though, and during this time gave birth to Eric's mother.

• He owned and played a Gibson Byrdland guitar designed by famous guitarists Hank Garland and Billy Byrd.
• While many people believe his nickname "Slow Hand(s)" is because his fingers are slow on the guitar, it is actually because once while playing a concert, he played his guitar so hard, one of his strings broke, and he took time out to re- string it. As he did, the fans in attendance began a "slow hand" clap.
