If you’ve ever wanted to own one of Prince’s guitars, and you’ve got roughly $40,000 to spare (specifically £39,500), then we’ve got a deal for you! Gear Emporium on Reverb is selling one of Prince’s Fender Thinline Telecaster with a document of authenticity from Paisley Park. The guitar was owned by Prince throughout the ’80s and was customized by guitar luthier Chuck Orr.
“The guitar comes in one of Prince’s own guitar hard cases with his early logo on both sides, a headed document from Paisley Park Records stating the make, model and serial number which is #Orr. This is stamped into the metal neck plate on the back of the guitar.
“It also comes with a copy of a signed Prince photo that reads ‘To Chuck Orr, the greatest guitar maker in the world’ Prince. This is a copy of the original photo as the Original is not for sale. Handwriting on the guitar has also been confirmed by the family of Chuck Orr.”
