Mickey Mouse Cloud?
This cute little guy is my nephew Jasiah and he's really into Mickey Mouse as you can tell so I thought it was pretty cool when I came across this little Mickey Mouse guitar or ukulele which I thought bared a slight similarity to the cloud guitar otherwise known as the best guitar ever! I thought it was pretty cool so I thought I would share it with you all....and to show off my little nephew! I'm gonna assume he has some purple in those headphones?

One Of 28?
I got this very interesting and cool e-mail from "Angelo" last week about
an early cloud that could be one of the orginal cloud prototypes made for
Prince by Andy Beech. I'll post it below...let me know what you all think!
Same kind of serial number on this yellow cloud. Hmmmm....should I call them?
I own a very unique cloud guitar that has a very interesting
story. I bought this guitar about 9 or 10 yrs ago could have been longer. I
bought this guitar on Ebay from a seller who stated it once resided at paisley
park and was one of the first prototypes made by Andy Beech for Schecter. It
has all the characteristics of prince's stage guitar and the craftsmanship on
this guitar is beautiful and amazing but doesn't have the long horn on the
headstock. It has all schaller hardware, brass nut, brass truss rod cover, has
single coil pickup mounted through body, and EMG active pickups. I do own a
schecter version of the cloud guitar as well and let me tell you HUGE
difference in craftsmanship and this guitar is NOT a schecter. The scroll on
this guitar is fatter and has way more detail (see pics). The scroll at the
bottom of guitar is thinner and not as deep like on the schecter, looks way
cleaner and neat. It also has prince symbols on the side of the neck and has a
prince symbol on the 12th fret and has heart on the 19th fret. Whats also
unique about this guitar is the head stock isn't tilted back like the schecter
ones it is straight (see pics). It also has a black & silver label on the
back of the guitar with a serial number which I have seen similar labels on
some of prince's guitars like on the rave concert. If you look at the guitar
while he swings it around on the song “Always in my hair” you can see the same
label thats on this guitar (see pic). Im using this as a reference not implying
he played this guitar because I have no proof. But what I do have proof of
after all these years is that it was made by andy beech. After all these years
I wanted to clarify the story behind this guitar, so I reached out to andy and
emailed him pics of the guitar to see if he would recognize his own work in
which most artist do and had a brief phone conversation to confirm (I do have a
screen shot of that email for you to see). Just thought I would share this
story with all the cloud guitar lovers out there.

Work In Progress....
Jesse O'Neal form ergoinstruments.com is building what looks to be a very angelic cloud! Jesse is asking $1k if anybody is interested in putting their name on it! 25.5 scale, spruce body, maple neck / fingerboard, chrome hardware, bone nut, Wilkinson P-90 pickups (cream) cream flowers, chrome plates. Jesse says that it is as close to the same shade as the "Blue Angel" that the purple Yoda played from '88-'91 or so that he's seen. Krylon 'Blue Ocean'. I think the color is about about as close as you can get....the frets are taped up for the painting process. Give him a shout if your interested before it's gone!
