Rusan’s career took off when an artist named Prince wanted him to make a unique guitar for a movie.

Rusan said yes and the Cloud guitar was born. That movie — “Purple Rain” — and the Cloud guitar would become iconic.

“The guitar itself is important to me. It’s one of the highlights of my life,” Rusan said.

But now, Rusan is in a legal battle to keep his trademark of the guitar.

This week, he posted on his business Facebook page, sharing that the Paisley Park estate is challenging the trademark.

He can fight it, but he says it could take years of litigation and cost him $50,000 in fees — even if the case didn’t go to court.

“It’s kind of a daunting thing. I’m trying to run my business, at the same time, I’m mostly by myself,” Rusan said.
