James Marshall Hendrix (born Johnny Allen Hendrix; November 27, 1942 – September 18, 1970) was an American musician, singer and songwriter. Despite a limited mainstream exposure of four years, he is widely considered to have been the greatest electric guitarist in the history of popular music, and one of the most important musicians of the 20th century.
Influenced musically by American rock and roll and electric blues, following initial success in Europe with his band the Jimi Hendrix Experience, he achieved fame in the US after his 1967 performance at the Monterey Pop Festival. Later, he headlined the Woodstock Festival in 1969 and the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970, before dying from drug-related asphyxia at the age of 27.
Instrumental in developing the previously undesirable technique of guitar amplifier feedback, Hendrix favored overdriven amplifiers with high volume, gain and treble. He helped to popularize the use of the wah-wah pedal in mainstream rock, which he often used to deliver tonal exaggerations in his solos. He also pioneered experimentation with stereophonic phasing effects in rock music recordings.
The recipient of several prestigious rock music awards during his lifetime and posthumously, the Jimi Hendrix Experience was inducted into the US Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992, and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005. English Heritage erected a blue plaque to identify his former residence on Brook Street, London, in September 1997. Rolling Stone ranked his three non-posthumous studio albums, Are You Experienced (1967), Axis: Bold as Love (1967) and Electric Ladyland (1968) among the 100 greatest of all time; they ranked him the number one greatest guitarist and the sixth greatest artist.

This is my tribute to the famous guitarist “Jimi Hendrix” who using Fender Stratocaster.
He has many features to present, messy hair, fancy clothing, and his right-handed guitar upside down. So it is worth to try and honestly the reddish brown parts are much easier to get for me.
In the beginning I built the smaller Stratocaster for a scale to image the whole model I want. What I want? I want to make a action figure who can play the guitar with power function!
During the progress the most difficult part is how to place the mechanism, hand posing and build the shape of his clothing at the same time.
I put a lot of effort to build the body part, minimize the mechanism and make the structure sturdy, really happy to see how it turn out.
Hope you like this guitar hero I built.

Jimi Hendrix Experience, ‘Are You Experienced?’, 1967. The Summer of Love, Sgt Pepper’s, and this debut album. It’s hard for us now to realise just how big an impact Hendrix made back then. Beyond the myth and legend, which doesn’t need telling here, there’s the music. Hendrix had the chops but loved what the studio could do. This album is a Sixties classic that still holds up.
I’ve gone for the US release of this album as it includes singles that flopped in the US first time around: ‘Purple Haze’, ‘Hey Joe’, ‘The Wind Cries Mary’. Flops? Can you imagine? Stone cold classics each. ‘Wind Cries Mary’ is a lovely ballad, demonstrating Jimi wasn’t all sturm und drang guitar attack. ‘Manic Depression’ blasts away in waltz time. ‘May This Be Love’ is gentle and fluid. ‘Third Stone From the Sun’ is rippling and jazzy and atmospheric with a great riff and guitar break. It’s about planet Earth, man. ‘Foxy Lady’ is just a great dirty riff and electricity. ‘Fire’ is a solid, funky, fast danceable blaze of a tune. ‘I Don’t Live Today’ another riff. ‘Are You Experienced’ sounds like Vietnam with chiming piano, backwards guitar, trippy lyrics and guitar.
For a trio, the Experience made a big sound. Mitch Mitchell’s drumming swings from jazzy to straight balls-out rockin’. Noel on bass keeps things locked. Hendrix never liked the sound of his own voice, but I’ve always liked it. It’s Hendrix on guitar that makes it all special though, obvs. It’s an extension of him, notes and chords tumbling out as easy as breathing. He looked cool too. Legend.

I've finally had time to catch up on some editing of holiday photos and photos from walks and the holiday ones are the first to be finished. This pic is from a walk we took from the campsite at Damage Barton, down along the coast and back. This is the last of the lot I have from Devon to upload. I should have more when I finish some from Cornwall.
