People recommending guitars other than Fender Stratocasters for Jimi and Stevie? Seems kind of silly doesn't it?
Fender American Standard.![]()
Plus, an old beat up nitro guitar looks far better than one with a plastic finish!
Really? If you've been around a while like I have you'll have played many old guitars and while I can be nostalgic like many of us can, you'd know that many of those old guitars were pure crap. Just like many old Marshall or old Fender amps. Having read ton's of info on Hendrix, he just played standard Stratocasters. Nothing special. The guitar shop owner that sold SRV his main Stratocaster said it was a dog and no one wanted it. Stevie picks it up and BAM! lightning!
It's the indian not the arrow man.
