Slowhand Dry Midrange Grind — Studio Riff
The studio sound is a restrained Strat-style edge-of-breakup tone with a dry, prominent midrange and considerably less gain than many cover versions use. Exact session controls are not documented, so these settings are representative rather than a transcription of Clapton's knobs.
