David Z's Guitar

Origin
David Z (1953 -) is an American music producer, engineer, mixer and writer. David is most known for his work with Prince as well as being the guitarist of the band Lipps Inc. where he helped write and perform “Funkytown”. The song spent four weeks on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot Dance Music/Club Play charts in the United States. The single alone sold over two million copies within a few months and was awarded a platinum record within the same year of its release. Trying hard to match this success David locked himself away trying to write another top song. Band mates discovered he practiced so much that his fingers started to bleed from the strings. Instead of letting the depression overtake him David listened to his band mates who told him that if they got another hit that was what fate wanted.

Effects
