It's been 50 years since Jimi Hendrix took the world by storm with his incredible Monterey Pop Festival performance, which he concluded with the sacrificial burning of his now-iconic hand-painted Stratocaster. Destroyed during the fiery culmination of his set, this one-of-a-kind guitar survived only in photos and film. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of this milestone in music history, Fender has released this limited-edition Jimi Hendrix Monterey Stratocaster, now available at Replay Guitar Exchange. The guitar's body art is an homage to Hendrix's hand-painted original, while also featuring a custom neck plate with an engraved image of Jimi and his signature on the rear of the headstock. Three single-coil Stratocaster pickups evoke the sound and style of classic Fender guitars from the ’60s. This instrument also features a Fender vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge with six saddles and the '60's-style neck has a comfortable "C"-shaped profile, sculpted to impart a vintage-style playing feel. The Jimi Hendrix Monterey Stratocaster is available only for a limited time, so don’t delay. Order yours now, or call, chat or email Replay Guitar Exchange for more details. A gig bag is included.
