COMES WITH ALL CASE CANDY...IF YOU NEED ANY INFO OR OTHER PICS PLEASE LET ME KNOW
1997 Fender Production Hendrix Tribute Stratocaster. It has the tone! These pickups really sound great! This fine instrument is all original and in excellent condition. Although, it has the 5 select switch installed which came with it and the original three way is in the case. This is a right hand guitar with the reverse headstock you can look in the mirror a trip to woodstock in 1969. It comes complete with the original Fender hard shell case and all the goodies pictured. The guitar is now almost eleven years old and it's in excellent condition This guitar has been played a bit and wasn't sitting in a closet somewhere. The 1997 Jimi Hendrix Tribute Stratocaster is a left-handed guitar flipped and reverse strung (keeping the low E string on top), allowing the right-handed player to play a left-handed guitar, essentially the mirror image of how the left-handed Hendrix played right-handed guitars. In fact, the 1997 Tribute Strat takes the "mirror image" concept one step further - the CBS-style decal is written in reverse and only "readable" when looking at it in a mirror. January 19, 1997, Fender Press Release: In the late 1960s, Jimi Hendrix single-handedly stretched the sonic possibilities of the guitar and, in the process, changed rock music--forever. In his gifted hands, the instrument became a major vehicle of expression. It talked, cried, exorcised and exulted as he glided with exuberance and ease from searing, blistering, electric blues to feedback-laden, free-form jazz to smoothly crafted torch ballads. In honor of the guitar-wielding legend, Fender Musical Instruments and Experience Hendrix, LLC (the family of Jimi Hendrix) have just released the Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster. "Modeled after the same Strat that Jimi played at his historic performance at the Woodstock Music Festival of August 1969, the instrument is bound to delight generations of guitar players and music history enthusiasts for years and years," noted Jack Shelton, senior vice president of sales at Fender. For starters, the Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster, which is built in Fender's factory in Corona, California, is a left-handed model strung right-handed and reversed, with the strap button on the lower horn, so that right-handed players would appear as Jimi did when looking at themselves in the mirror. The guitar, which is available in Olympic White, also boasts a maple neck with a large late-60s-style headstock, classic Schaller "F" tuners and woven strap. The icing on the cake, however, is the pickup configuration--three reverse staggered vintage Stratocaster pickups that are positioned perfectly for boning up on Jimi Hendrix classics such as "Wild Thing," "Purple Haze" or even "The Star Spangled Banner.
