I don't know how many times I watched this series...so glad of an additional tutorial...pls keep them coming. May I ask how you are getting that incredible tone..is it amp sim, real amp and pedals? Can you advise your setup please?

[@FretlixGuitar]

I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the Hendrix lessons :) So for the tone in this video most of it is the guitar tbh. I had the pickups custom built for me in Italy when I was on tour over there. The guys had sourced all vintage components and hand built these amazing pickups for me. For the Amp I’m using a Kemper Profiler with a Michael Britt profile of a /13 Amp, no speaker just straight into my interface(Apogee Quartet). I added some Waves plugins, CLA comp and a Puigtech eq, with a sprinkle of spring reverb. Hope that makes sense?

[@emannaquilina6331]

Thanks for the details and great info. Can I ask you for details of the supplier of the pickups pls?

[@FretlixGuitar]

Of course, they are called ZD Explosion pickups from Italy. However, I’ve just had a look for them and I’m not sure they are still in business. I was lucky enough to be one of their first customers as they were friends with my guitar tech. If they are still going they are really top guys. They came down to my gig and basically overhauled all of the wiring etc in that strat adding their pickups for me. In the video I used the out of phase sound neck/middle position so even if you don’t manage to get the same pickups hopefully you can get a similar sound :)

@@FretlixGuitar thanks a bunch and yes it seems no longer existing as google is not returning anythin. Great idea on the out of phase. Thanks to answer and always your subscriber as this content is really helpful for such a genre.

You are welcome. It’s a shame they aren’t going anymore as their pickups are fab!

How about Hendrix using 6/9 chords? The Hendrix Angel chord also in the song Angel

Take off your pinky and you have a great movable 7th chord too

[@FretlixGuitar]

Infeed! Or move your pinky back one fret for a 9th chord :)
