Fender Jimi Hendrix Strat OWH

Great guitar, great quality, unique features

In my opinion the reverse headstock and bridge pickup tilt make it a unique sounding and looking guitar. I reallt reccomend it for anyone even if they're not big hendrix fans. The gigbag is good considering it comes with the guitar but still i don't think it's the safest way to carry around a 1000+ euro guitar so it may be a good idea to consider buying something with more padding or even a case.

Jimi Strat is the Bomb

This is one of the best Strats to come out of Fender in my view. Feels fantastic in the hands and the string feel is incredible. Jimi was obviously thinking when he turned over that RH Strat. Got some Fralin Voodoo pickups to try but after playing this I don’t need them. Mexican quality is equal to my two recent Am Pro Rosewood neck Strats. No need to think about this - go ahead and get it, you won’t regret it

Great quality of hardware and amazing authentic sound! Significantly exceeded my expectations, very satisfied!

Awesome guitar

I am using this guitar for a few month now and used humbuckered guitar before, but I honestly fell in love with it! However, to be frank it sounds okeyish first, but that was due to poor quality of my cheap combo amp. Great detail, great quality. Only con I can think of is inconvenient process of removing protective film

Just works as a complete package. Neck AMAZING!

Exceptional

Perfect, sound, aspect, everything, but I didn't get my tremolo bar :'(

My first Strat - I didn't make a mistake.

My first impression when I unpacked the box was that this is a really beautiful guitar - big reverse headstock, nice finish, smooth neck.

The tone is great, especially when played clean, but it's also good for crunchy sound. I used to own only guitars with humbuckers in the past, so this is the first guitar I own with single-coil pickups, and it's amazingly versatile. Playability is top-notch, the neck is smooth and easy to play.

I've been playing it for almost a year, and as time goes by it's just sounding better to me. :)

Authentic Vintage Rock n'Roll

This guitar is versatile for a number of styles and sounds not just exclusively Hendrix.

Beautiful Hendrix aesthetic but with it's features the right way around.

Classic bright Fender tones in the vintage pickups.

The inverted neck give it a beautiful unique tone.

If you are looking for a reasonably priced guitar and a Hendrix fan. This is the guitar for you.

Love it!!!

My favorite Strat ever, LOVE the tone, guitar came exceptionally well set up out of the box, the neck is straight, nut is properly cut, action is nice, intonation is spot on, neck is really comfortable, except pretty bad fret sprout, most probably due to difference in humidity - but it's easy to file fret ends and round everything. It weighs around 3.5 kg. Would definitely recommend this guitar

A class of its own!

What can I say about the Jimi Hendrix Strat other than it beats the pants off of any Strat in any range below American Vintage!

I'll start with the best part of this guitar the sound, the American Vintage 65 pickup set is glorious and to me captures the Strat sound I hear in my head. They are not hot pickups and they will nail anything from Hendrix's, Mayer's or Stevie's catalogue especially Slow Dancing. The bridge pickup is very trebly but not enough that its unusable and the neck pickup is utterly divine.

The look is of course striking, with the reverse headstock, stunning white with the aged hardware, it certainly stands out from the pack. But the look does more than make you stand out it makes you play different as the reverse headstock makes the string tension feel very different from a normal Strat with slinky low strings and slightly tighter high strings it makes you work for those bends!

The neck is a thin C profile which is comfortable providing lots of access for either the shredder style hand position or the thumb over the top blues style...my only minor criticism is the fret ends which can remind you that this is still a Mexican made instrument but they are still perfectly serviceable but the only reason this guitar doesn't get all 5 stars.
