Description
Roadhouse USA:
Schecter Paisley Park Prince Cloud Guitar.
This guitar is in brand new condition, never been played. I even have the original shipping box with it.
There are many copies and fakes out there, including the cheap Chinese shit that everybody seems to want to pedal, but these guitars are the only ones that were authorized by Prince’s Paisley Park estate.
These are an excellent quality guitar made by Schecter.
Active EMG pickups.
The guitar plays great and has a nice feel to it as it sits.
Comes as pictured with original purple hard case and strap.
Info from Guitar Player magazine:
Prince’s iconic Cloud guitar has become something of a rarity in the six-string world, with purchases of a replica only possible in-person at Paisley Park. That has all changed with Schecter’s announcement of a worldwide release of Cloud replicas.
The guitar first entered the public eye after featuring in the 1984 film, Purple Rain. Its origins, however, date back to the year prior, when Minneapolis luthier Dave Rusan constructed the one-of-a-kind piece for Prince. The Nothing Compares 2 U singer subsequently commissioned Schecter to remake the Cloud in new colours and tasked the company with repairing his older Cloud models.
The replica itself features a mahogany body, a three-piece maple set-neck and a maple fretboard adorned with Black Prince Love Symbol inlays. It’s also loaded with two EMG humbuckers – 81 (bridge) and SA (neck) – wired to a master volume control, master tone control and three-way pickup switch.
