Brother Jules owns Prince's Telecaster guitar? . Saw this posted earlier on, via Twitter but I think it's originally from Facebook. . Whilst we have no idea what P's wishes were, it seems really sad to me that important pieces of Prince's history are ending up in private hands in this way . . | |

Auction over so no photos showing. No matter your age, pursue your dreams so that you will LIVE. | |

Thought that guitar would have ended up in the proposed museum to be honest when people look at that guitar they think of that certain performance with Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty and all for the tribute to George Harrison. Business Manager to Cat Glover. | |

My thoughts too... I don't know if you are able to see all the items listed in the link I've posted, one of them was this one:
"1959 Gibson L-Series Guitar Used by Prince to Compose & Record Early Demo Tracks -- Prince Was Famously Photographed With the Favorite Guitar in Early Promotions" Life Matters | |

1) Prince owned more than one Telecaster. 2) That Telecaster isn't the classic Hohner that Prince is playing in the picture from Rock and Roll Hall of Fame performance. The text on the headstock is different, as is the pattern on the pickguard.

That is NOT Prince's guitar. What he has is a Harley Benton knock off. Check this link http://www.strat-talk.com...es.269342/ | |

Yep. This. Thank God! If everything got sold off, what would there be to put in the PP Museum? THANK YOU for the clarification. I would strongly dislike seeing his personal belongings scattered out all over the globe. Then again, maybe where he is now, he would want that (?) Nah, I don't think so. | |

I think he may have given some things to some people and they are now trying to cash in. We also know he had a lot of duplicates and replicated he sold out of his stores so let's not assume all of the stuff as been stolen. | |

calm down people,
it idd isn't the real hohner, in fact Brother Jules doesn't own a thing. it's a project i did. Bought a harley benton & bought a seperate pickguard, uploaded a picture on facebook for my friends and a couple hour laters that guy posted it on his page like it's his :s i don't get it.
here's another pic, but in a bit higher resolution & without the RRHOF pic next to it, something "Brother jules" can't provide.

1) I could already see this from the auction webpage, but thanks for clarifying it for other orgers (I had assumed most people on here were already aware of that auction anyway) Life Matters | |

Yes, I was curious about the Remix Experience having NPG Records 2016 on... and now this guitar thing - it seems fishy indeed. . No wonder Tora Tora kicked his ass in the Get Wild video [Edited 7/6/16 6:17am] | |

Sounds like Brother Jules is a bit of a scumbag. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |
