Prince's Guitarz...

Prince's Guitarz...

I know that there are quite a few cloud guitars...If anyone has any pictures to post, that would help...I have two questions,

One: How many colors do the cloud guitarz come in? I am talking about the shades that Prince owns and plays.

Two: The guitar that Prince played at the Superbowl, I call the "Arrow," guitar, although I don't know what Prince calls it. I have seen that body in Purple...and one in Gold, are there other colors?
Can anyone post a picture of this guitar? cool

ooh..a little sex talk unexpected...Thank you...I'm gonna try to make one out of clay tonight...although I am going to make a white one...because it is all that I have to work with...I hope it comes out okay...

It will be about 6or7 inches long. I have made the cloud guitars in several colorz...

This body is harder for me to make...because as I try to add the neck, the round body can go oval on me...It takes me awhile...I have made a purple one, although, it being my first...looks like it.

It took me about 20 works to get the cloud down. cool

My problem is that I do not have a scanner...and although I have a photoshop account for other pictures...I can't get them over here...I don't know if you need a URL or what...Forgive me for being computer illiterate...It's easier for me to take a picture with my pentax and go to the one-hour...and it's faster too. cool I'm gonna get offline now...and go work on it...I'll come back on in a few hours...and tell ya how it came out...My hope is that I will be successful with this one...Sometimes things go wrong in the baking process...

You mean this one?

If I remember correctly Prince calls it Habibi (beloved).



I've seen the cloud guitar in 5 colors...white, blue, black, yellow and peach. Don't know if there's more.
Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.

Thanks a lot you guyz I really appreciate that...I actually had found a little picture of Prince with the white one...which I used tonite...and it came out pretty good...however...It isn't glazed...and with the other guitarz I have made...They are under 6"...This white Arrow is 7" long...and they are not true to life...They have only 3 stringz. It's ornamental.
I did this One with White and Silver, with Black stringz...and I know that the White one posted here has some gold, although I don't have any gold clay at the moment so neither does this one...
With this body...I will have to reinforce the back somehow...although I like to make them worth viewing on both sides...but if I don't, It will break, because I did it in 3 pieces.
One day...I'll have a photo available of several of the ones I have done...I've sold some...given a lot away...and holding onto a few. I've been working on guitarz with football logo'z as well...I'll get around to all 34 teams eventually. I want to take a picture of them and send it to the NFL...The 4 that are done...are great. cool
