Not even close to the one Prince uses, and extremely overpriced.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I don't know why Hohner made a "Prinz" guitar in the first place, if they weren't gonna match the details of the one Prince actually used. The pickguard is way off, the center "mahogany" stripe is way too thick. It was their friggin' guitar he was using, with just a couple of custom elements. They stole Fender's headstock, they could have borrowed the Prince elements.

While I'm at it... they should have made it ejaculate Purple Rain too.
