Prince’s yellow cloud guitar up for auction

A bright yellow, uniquely shaped guitar used by Prince to perform such tunes as “Cream” and “Gett Off” is going up for auction.

Heritage Auctions is selling one of the late artist’s “yellow cloud” electric guitars beginning on June 24 with an opening bid of $30,000. The guitar was one of several custom guitars Prince used in the 1980s and 1990s.

“I’ve been a Prince fan since I was a little kid, and that guitar always stuck out to me because it was super cool and stylish,” said current owner Richard Lecce, who bought it for about $30,000 over a year ago from Heritage Auctions.
