Prince is an incredible guitar player.

Miles said he kicked ass on the guitar.

John Popper (Blues Traveler) said anytime he heard a Prince song while he was driving, he had to pull over to the side of the road to listen to the guitar solo.

Richie Kotzen said P was one of his favorite guitar players and made him go towards the Tele.

Yep...Neal Schon has praised P's guitar skills and Stevie Stevens of Billy Idol. Paul Stanley of KISS has also complemented P's playing.

Absolutely, incredible, if you haven't seen him on stage, you can't imagine how he lets loose.
