Song by song, album by album, concert by concert, this book analyzes how Jimi Hendrix achieved his unique sound. The book examines all of Hendrix's equipment, providing a nuts-and-bolts analysis of each of his guitars ( including serial number, history, provenance), choice of amps, and his singular use of revolutionary effects, from wah-wahs to overdrives to bizzar-o pedals like the Fuzzface. A practical reference book like no other, this volume gives the proper guidance and tools to any guitarist who wants to emulate and learn from the greatest guitar player of all time.
