There has been a ton of posts about Prince’s guitar solo in the live video of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.” The Telecaster he is playing in that video is not actually a Fender Telecaster. It is a Hohner MadCat, a tele knock-off. Prince was known for his flamboyant style, and that included most of his custom-made guitars he performed with. However, this Hohner guitar and its simplicity was his most often guitar-of-choice since the early 1980s. I think it was a testament to his musicianship. This guitar felt right to him even though it was simple, and even though it was a knock-off. Hohner was never known for their guitars. They’re known for their harmonicas and the Clavinet keyboard (a signature sound of 1970’s funk, i.e. Stevie Wonder). My first electric guitar was a Hohner, and a few years ago I purchased another Hohner electric guitar. They are both well-made instruments.
Even though I loved many of his songs, I never considered myself a huge Prince fan. But I always felt a kinship to him as a fellow Hohner player, and for the way his fearless guitar playing influenced my own guitar solos ever since I was 18 years old. I absolutely hate to see musicians die, and it has been a rough year so far. In Prince, we’ve lost a hell of an all-round musician, performer, and a great, truly great guitar player.

Always interesting setups from this dude. Thanks for sharing, man. The importance of top jacks sometimes. Very neat pedalboard!

Telling my dog that this isn't how you celebrate Easter was the same feeling of telling a kid Santa isn't real :(
