Badge

"Badge" is a rock track by Cream, co-written by Eric Clapton and George Harrison, and featured on the band's final studio album, Goodbye, released in 1969. The song showcases Clapton's signature guitar work alongside a distinctive mid-section chord progression that sets it apart from typical blues-rock of the era. For electric guitarists, it offers an excellent study in melodic phrasing, clean tone control, and the kind of understated but expressive playing that defined Clapton's style during this period.

  • "Badge" was co-written by Eric Clapton and George Harrison, making it a rare creative collaboration between two guitar legends.
  • The song appeared on Goodbye, Cream's farewell album, marking the end of one of rock's most influential power trios.
  • "Badge" reached number 18 on the UK Singles Chart following its April 1969 release there.
Gibson SG Standard
Guitar

Gibson SG Standard

Lighter and more aggressive than the Les Paul, the SG's slim mahogany body and twin humbuckers produce a raw, snarling midrange. Angus Young's weapon of choice - perfect for high-energy rock and hard-driving riffs.

Marshall JTM45
Amp

Marshall JTM45

Marshall's first amplifier and the blueprint for all British rock tone. Based on the Fender Bassman circuit, the JTM45's KT66 power tubes and bold midrange deliver a warm, fat breakup that influenced decades of rock playing.

Dunlop Cry Baby Wah
Pedal

Dunlop Cry Baby Wah

The most recognised wah pedal on the planet. The Cry Baby's vocal frequency sweep gave Hendrix, Clapton and Kirk Hammett their signature lead voices. Rock, funk, metal - no pedalboard is complete without one.
