He did, and apparently when he reformed Cream his sound was dogshit because a Start sounds nothing like a guitar with a bucker on it.

Well his sound changed massively from Cream to solo, he should have used the right tool for the job, and if he really wanted to play a strat, he could have used an HSS or an HSH.
Patrick:
and from late Cream to just before the Strat, he played that gorgeous cherry ES-335 with Blind Faith. Derek is where he went Stratty (conveniently, rhymes with "batty", which is also applicable), but fortunately Duane Allman still kept a Les Paul in the mix.
I mean don't get me wrong, I love Strats in the right context. and he nailed it on "Layla" And Other Love Songs. but he rarely got it right again after that.
Taekwondoin:
Argh I'm not entirely sure I can agree, I like a lot of his solo work, and I do love the clean sound of a strat, John Frusciante got some great tones out of it to my ears.
For me though, Cream was his best work, and his greatest guitar sound. I haven't really taken much notice of Blind Faith before, though I know my Dad has a few of their LPs.
Thrillho:
Blind Faith's album cover is... something.
