What would HEndrix have played had he lived?
I think Hendrix would have definitly played a Jackson. Probabbly H-S-S.
Poor guy had to try and make do with the anemic single coi sTRAOCASTER l bridge pickup. He did a great job, It soundd fantsastic...but he was soo limited So often that single coil would just squal uncontrollablly in live situations. Please don't blame Jimi hendrix. I guess the guy who had the best control over his sound at high voluem back in the pioneering days was Blackmore. He did soo much with that awefull Start single bridge that its amazeing!. Just stop and think think waht Hendrix could've done with a Jackson Soloist or a Charvel with a floyd! It would BEEN INSANE! The amps were good to go, however. Cannot fault an early Plexi..yet a Solist through a modern Soldano SLO or a JVM ( thats my bet on waht Hendrix would have liked) would have been something amazeing to hear.
