I've been told that Prince had absolutely perfect pitch. He could hear something like a table being scraped across the floor and accurately tell you the note was between a B and B sharp.

He also supposedly had a small keyboard and recording set up in every room in his house. Inspiration hits while taking a shit? No problem, let me just get that down mid dump.

His performance on While My Guitar Gently Weeps at the Rock Hall of Fame is one of my top 10 all time Guitar God performances

He's master of the devastating solo and electrifying riff, was also a considerable talent when it came to vigorous funk and elegant chord-craft. Never one to shy from demonstrating his superhuman guitar credentials, Prince's canon of studio albums features innumerable examples of his talent.

Practice

Edit : He was encouraged to play music by both parents and was given a keyboard @ 7 y/o. Shortly after, his father gave him a guitar. I bet he spent hours upon hours learning not only every note, but every squeak or tone he could make with a guitar. He had the sponge-like brain of youth and encouragement from parents.
