^ Not sure if it's a Model C, though. The "C" has an opening cut-out just ahead of the pickups, but I can't see it on this bass.

The bass is called the "Cleo" model...

Sonny T played it quite often in the NPG days.

Thank you.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

WOW, you are brilliant!!!! ( I learn a lot here)!!!!!

Never new a model C for guitar...thought of Cindy smile

And that gave me a new question: Is Prince singing about his "model" guitar or inspired by model?

My mind wants me to believe I've seen a video of him sitting at a mixing board ,slapping along to Partyman, with a black model C looking bass.


You are correct. Just Googled the video.



Oh YES: The PARTYMAN session, omg.. another magical moment. I was so excited when I saw this back then in 1989 or whenever... excited headbang music

Some guy had this on VHS video tape together with an outtake of the Partyman video - and I got a copy,

memories... love2
