The Orange Cloud

This may be the only post about the Orange Cloud on this blog for some time unless someone can find more photos of this guitar or until Prince starts using it! To my knowledge this is the only known photograph of the elusive Orange Cloud. I'm not sure when it was made but I would think that it would of been perfect for the 3121 album and for the Fury Video! Maybe he just changed his mind like he usually does or maybe it's not his guitar at all! I've heard people say it's a fake but to me it looks pretty authentic....right down to the symbols between the frets. That purple guitar strap adds to the mystery as well....although I know he uses one for the purple symbol guitar "Habibi" the fact that a purple strap is laying across the case makes me believe it is real. If anyone else comes across this orange beauty let me know and send me the info and I'll post it on this blog.

  6. Wow never seen an orange one before. But hey, it's Prince. I bet he has one to match every outfit.

  7. It's not his: the gap between the SA and the neck is too wide. Also the gap between the bridge and the 81 is too wide. this kind of adjustments are not made for him
