Prince's guitar preference....

I wonder why he is so attched to his old Hohner Telecaster all of a sudden .
His trademark Cloud and Smbol guitars seem to be taking a back seat lately....
Still it's nice to see that old Tele , considering he's been playing it since the late 70's !!!

Telecaster! I was thinking Stratocaster! (I got into guitars for a while because of Prince's. Did Dez ever play a Flying V at some point?) Damn, I love seeing him with it. It reminds me of the early years. A replica needs to be a added to that guitar sculpture at the Experience Music Project in Seattle.

The Hohner is a tele copy, although its very different from Fenders. Its made of maple for one thing! You can find out a lot about it over in the musician's forum. There are threads about it there.

I have seen a couple of recent pic of Prince w/ a strat. Not sure what song he might be doing on it.

As for Dez... he seemed to like Gibsons- Explorers and such. I would not be at all surprised to see him w/ a flying V, although I've never seen such a pic personally.
