If you’re a music lover, then you’re probably familiar with the legendary American guitarist, singer, and songwriter, Jimi Hendrix. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest guitarists of all time and has influenced numerous aspiring musicians with his groundbreaking music. Although he started his career in England, it wasn’t until his performance at the Monterey Festival in 1967 that he gained international recognition. Hendrix went on to headline the iconic 1969 Woodstock Festival, where his unique style of playing, incorporating guitar feedback and overdriven amplifiers, transformed an unconventional sound into a highly popular form of music. His guitar of choice was the Fender ’60s Reverse Headstock Stratocaster.
