Jimi Hendrix rehearsing at Madison Square Garden, NYC, 1969.
"Jimi's hands were huge and he used his thumb to bar the entire neck of the guitar, which yielded much of his unique tone. He is seen here quietly rehearsing using a Gibson Flying V, prior to going on stage. He used the "V" for playing blues and that was his way of relaxing…..(his Strat sits in the case)" ~ Eddie Kramer
