Courtesy of gottahaverockandroll.com, Prince’s original yellow Schecter Cloud Guitar is now up for auction.
Part of Prince’s instrument inventory, this particular guitar was used during the superstar’s rehearsals and performances and was also tested as a prototype for the Schecter range that the iconic musician had commissioned for general sale.
Because it was being built for Prince himself rather than for public sale, the guitar is a prototype and does not contain the stamped Schecter serial number below the ‘Diamond Series’ logo.
Finished in yellow with symbol inlays, it was said to have been one of Prince’s favorite combinations for the cloud and the guitar came from one of Prince’s guitar tech’s.
The Schecter Cloud Guitar is up for auction now at gottahaverockandroll.com and bidding starts at $60,000 but is guesstimated to sell for over $100,000.
