The Gear used by Jimi Hendrix
My friend Bobby from Yonkers (we call him Video Bobby because he video tapes our jam sessions) has two Marshall Speaker cabinets that he bought from an estate sale. They have the JHE (Jimi Hendrix Experience) logo on them and are marked serial number #2 and #4. He's been offered $500,000 for the pair, but Bobby lives the music of Hendrix and has every note the Jimi ever played down to perfection. He isn't selling. Another friend has a guitar that he bought at a flea market that can be traced by serial number to Jimi. When they Jam at a local home, they sound pretty damn good.

The link above is to Gibson article on the gear that Jimi Hendrix used. Fascinating stuff, although no harp content. 

 

Buy the Book!

I cleaned up my tab for Sonny Boy's Help Me and made it into a short book. There's a Kindle version for 99 cents, and if you buy the paperback you get the Kindle free.
