Features
"REVERSE" HEADSTOCK
Mirroring Hendrixs penchant for playing right-handed guitars flipped over, the reverse 70s-style headstock on this guitar alters the relative length of the stringscreating a unique playing feel while adding more snap to the treble strings.
REVERSE BRIDGE PICKUP
In an especially authentic touch, the single-coil bridge pickup on this signature model is mounted with a reverse slant, generating warm sound with enhanced upper harmonics and definition on the bass strings while adding girth to the treble strings.
HEADSTOCK SIGNATURE
The venerable legacy of Hendrix is commemorated in this instruments reversed headstock, complete with Hendrix's signature.
ENGRAVED NECK PLATE
This signature Stratocaster model features a special neck plate engraved with a shoulders-up silhouette of Hendrix and an "Authentic Hendrix" inscription.
REVERSE-MOUNTED PICKUPS
To get the pure electric tone that is an elemental part of Hendrix legacy, weve equipped his signature model with three reverse-mounted American Vintage 65 single-coil Stratocaster pickups. This reverses the pole piece stagger, subtly changing the string-to-string volume balance for authentic Hendrix-style tone.
