Cordings has entered the 21st. Century, with the birth of their own
web-site:

The above URL has this amusing snippet about our man.

2003 - Present
In February 2003 the current management team approached Cordings best
customer and asked if he would assist in a management buyout. A presentation
was prepared for him and after 3 minutes of this carefully prepared
presentation he declared he would support it, he never did hear the final 17
minutes. Suffice to say the best customer was Eric Clapton.
Since that date the emphasis has been firmly on tradition and
re-establishing the reputation of quality. All merchandise is made to
exclusive specifications from materials traditionally found in the UK. The
marque of Cordings is now attracting back sons and grandsons of followers
from previous decades.
The stylishly dressed guitarist moonlights as the co-owner and design
Director and since February 2003 has been masterminding its re-launch. 'My
favourite pieces are the tweed shooting and hacking jackets' he says.
