But he plays guitar in Purple Rain, especially in the famous scene where he actually plays the song Purple Rain, which ends in a long guitar solo.

Prince is actually pretty famous for being able to play lots of different instruments, apparently he played all 25 instruments featured on his debut album.
He really is an amazing guitarist. Hearing him play live recently just confirmed that fact for me.
I hate prince. Not that I don't recognize his incredible talent, but as a leadguitarist I think he's too much of a hendrix-ripp off. If you hear the guy play bass and drums you'd shoot him for using drummmachines and keyboards most of his life. Oh, and the guy CAN sing, but that highpitched falsetto he uses ALL the time, just drives me nuts. No, a guy with so much talent should have been way better than he showed us.
