Prince and his Boss pedals are inseperable, you know that.

eye would like to hear prince give MARSHALL amp distortion a try .. especially with a les paul gibson .. then he would hear some real grit in his tone

Or, since he's doing Hendrix imitations, a Strat through a cranked Marshall would be fine too. Something other than the orange Boss pedal

Prince has a signature guitar sound, and it's great when it's a feature of a larger arrangement (Positivity comes to mind right now) but for an entire show, that sound would really wear thin.

A Boss DS1 with the Keeley mod would be more agreeable. Or just get a Tube Screamer like everyone else. With the Keeley mod wink

The recording level is way too high!

But me likes guitar

Cant believe my purple psychedelic pimp slap pimp2

And I descend from grace, In arms of undertow
I will take my place, In the great below

I must stand in defense of boss pedals.Boss makes some of the best guitar pedals in the market.Prince had a very nice sound 1979-1984.His guitar become more sintetic when he started using those Prince symbol and cloud guitars.if you take a listen at Prince's sound with Fender you will notice that nowdays Prince have the most natural warm distorted sound

Prince is two musical artists these days. There's the inspired, energetic live performer who makes you believe he's still got it, and then there's the bored studio artist phoning it in with perfunctory performances.

Maybe the quiet studio space just doesn't move him anymore. I dunno.

The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

what do you mean "with boss products"?... his pedals have had modifications done to them... i'm saying you can't judge a standard boss pedal by prince's pedals... they're not the same
