You guys may have seen this, but if not, take a listen. Unreal! Prince just owns the guitar in this.

Yeah, Prince has never been ummm, understated. :) I had no idea he was such a killer until the Super Bowl a few years ago. The guy is off the hook.

I have always liked Princes playing but his tone sucks. Some of the tone on Purple Rain was ok but really just ok.
