Prince music equipment I came across this via a FB site and while I don't know if it's accurate, I thought it was informative and has equipment listed for many musicians/bands. [http://equipboard.com/pros/prince-guitar] Eventually every cloud runs out of rain. | |

Most of it is correct . But, about the Epiphone Crestwood Custom it belongs to The Roots guitar player. Prince threw it on a TV show and broke the headstock (Vernon Reid made some angry tweets about it). But Prince asked for a luthier to repair it . And Prince is known for using Turbo Distortion, not Turbo Overdrive effect [Edited 1/14/17 17:41pm] |

I do have to question that site because some of that stuff is grossly inaccurate. A lot of that information is fed(erroneously) from some of the more popular music forums. Forums such as Gearslutz,Pootools/Avid, UAD, all have similar marketing protocols. Click and go buy at your own risk. | |

Yeah, I think that whole site gets affiliate revenue if you buy anything via their links. | |

Most of the equipment is well known to Prince fans (the effects, the guitars, etc) Yes, there are some not accurate info (like the one I mentioned) and some of them have no reliable sources, like Roland GP16 or the Rotovibe. |

Some of them have the line "Prince can be seen playing [...] in this photo", but sometimes it doesnt mean it´s his gear. Sometimes, he can borrow from others, like the Epiphone guitar I mentioned earlier. |

If you click the studio equipment tab under Prince, that should tell you how much they really know about the Artist vs. what the probabilities are of selling something on a site. | |

Consoles and rack effects? Yeah, they're not selling many of those. But they're probably moving a more than negligible number of stomp boxes and probably some guitars. That's how sites like that make money, largely. | |

Anyway, like I said, good part of it is accurate. And it´s not hard to find info on Google. Check for the Guitar Player, Guitar World and Bass Player articles, pictures of his pedalboard, etc |
