JIMI HENDRIX Woodstock Fender Stratocaster Guitar at MoPOP

[@scottkramer481]

My brother was a huge Hendrix fan. About 20 years ago, we met up in Seattle and went to a Rock Museum there where this white guitar was displayed right out in the open (not in a glass case). It was behind ropes and had laser beams passing in front of it to be the security system. he said to me, " I just have to touch it" and then started to reach for it. That's when the alarm went off. haha . Then a security guard appeared out of no where and told him that he was NOT to attempt that again or he would be escorted from the building. So, we went about the rest of the displays and as we were about to leave, he said, "let's go back to Jimi's guitar". When we got there, he reached out past the laser beams and touched it! haha. Needless to say, we both were escorted to the door. He was so happy that he touched it! What I didn't know was that he had terminal cancer and died 10 months later. I think of Billy every time I see that guitar. Rock on Bill

I was there and went into the theatre and saw the film of him Live At The Filmore East .

[@davidallen346]

It's amazing how Hendrix makes playing a upside down strat looking so natural, everything this guy did as a musician guitarist, live performer and recording Artist were just beyond words to describe. A man truly ahead of his time and still is relevant today.

[@justinsinclair6962]

A friend of mine dad was a wise guy in the Hamptons I played one of Hendricks guitars he bought at auction

[@shable1436]

I heard a stolen reel to reel that was confiscated by the dea, and my friends dad was retired and had it put up, you could hear jimi teaching a song to ppl, but its not like playing a guitar, thats cool

[@oldermusiclover]

there is a book i stumbled across called The Grail Guitar about a Tele that Jimi used as an over dub on Purple Haze. found it in a music store and bought it

[@markzuelch7452]

I guess I and others near my age (66) are a part of the ever dwindling number who were around when Jimi was still alive, listening to the records as they were released, Hendrix's new album or the on-air introduction by the DJ's of the new one by Hendrix, etc. Those were interesting times, not all good nor all bad and I'm glad I was there for it. Miss ya, Jimi.

[@MackDaddyVic]

Dude seeing that guitar just now was surreal. Like, he held that guitar. His sweat, tears and passion was poured into it. And it’s just sitting there on display all alone without Jimi to play it anymore. So wild man.

[@bobbyb3535]

If there would not be drugs...

[@zamaznta2796]

Not just a guitar… THE guitar

[@no.3royston612]

This museum is now at the top of my list to visit. It's got SO much in it! Amazing

[@mariaday712]

This is AWESOME! I love Jimi and I'm glad to see all the Jimi things they have. This was great to see. Thank you so very much for vloging all this. It deserves to be seen by as many people as possible. He was a great person and an awesome musician. Great vlog. Can't wait to see what you have for us to see tomorrow. Safe travels and Take Care.

[@Speedy9yo]

What an amazing place! I always enjoy when museums have handwritten lyrics and also when they have an item that was worn and then a photo of the person wearing it. Thankfully these things land in the right hands of the people that preserve them. Can’t wait to see more...

[@chrisquinlan6527]

I saw that guitar years ago when The Henry Ford had a "Rock Stars, Cars, and Guitars" display. Fascinating.

[@TuesdayAfternoon]

Hearing your backstory on the life of Jimi Hendrix really adds life to the MoPOP exhibits. Loved seeing the Stratocaster guitar and handwritten notes. Another awesome vlog. Very cool!

[@keithmccaslyn2527]

Awesome tour man. Been into Jimi since I was 12. 1970 , im now 62. Lovin da vibe!! As Jimi used to write in his autographs sometime: Stay groovy, stay Free.

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

Thank you

[@michelleeaton7955]

That was seriously awesome!!! To see that guitar he played at Woodstock, unbelievable. I too am a huge Hendrix fan, can't wait to see what else you have to show us 😁😁😁. Thank you so much for sharing, stay safe and warm.

[@feralLove]

The Holy Grail of legendary Rock n Roll guitars! I'm not a musician but have great appreciation for the time and dedication devoted to perfect their craft ,especially Hendrix, who is in a league all his own and if I were in close proximity to that guitar it would definitely be tempting to wanna touch it. Jordan, im guessing you Felt kinda like u were on cloud nine or walking on sunshine when u touched it all those years ago!! 😁🌞🙌🎸

[@jeroenscheltema7198]

Many THANK YOU's again from a fellow Hendrix Maniac!!!(i love the term) Greetz from Amsterdam Hendrix Forever

[@bigalb8935]

Awesome Jordan. You are the man you pick the best places to visit Jimi content always appreciated ✌️

[@seattlescofflaws]

It originally was called emp for experience music project. It had a science fiction exhibit a few years later and I guess it morphed into both snd renamed mopop a few years ago. I think Frank Ghery designed the building. The Cornell statue was dedicated in late 2018 with his wife and kids there. Matt Cameron and Kim Thayil were there too along with other celebs.

[@maulerism]

Move over Rover, and let Jimi take over! Thanks for sharing Jordan.

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

You're welcome

[@jasonmcgovern1364]

WOW Jordan, loved the sculpture of guitars, AMAZING! I love seeing original hand written items on headed sheets of paper from hotels and places that have have survived the years.Great vlog Jordan.

[@rev.jennyosorio7003]

I know everyone is into Jimi Hendrix but me. But to see that TWA bag!! Had one back then. That brings back a lot of memories. And yes I am enjoying seeing his things as well. I remember him when he was alive.

[@dustinadair7893]

I wonder if it’s still there? Last time I was there I didn’t see it. That was quite a few years back.

[@johnfair62]

I read an article wher the guy that was given the guitar to clean it up, cut the strings off to restring it, but after it was to late he realized it those strings that played the Star Spangled Banner at wood stock. When he went back to the trash the janitor had already emptied the trash, so all he had left was short pieces of the strings from the headstock.

[@MoviemaniaNick]

Awesome place Jordan! I like that guitar! Rock On!

[@leggettnada1]

I love SciFi movies and recognized Gort right away. Lock Martin played that part and he worked as an usher at Grauman's Chinese Theater. He was seven feet, seven inches tall. I remember Gort saying Klaatu barada nikto. Really enjoyed the vlog. Thank you Jordan

[@komi-origami]

Woaaaah this exhibition is such a blast 😍

[@adamdixon2257]

3:15 Is this the one from Pawn Stars?

[@tadounia01]

No

[@BHayes-jv2rz]

Heck no

[@markusaurelius777]

3:02 I had a Strat EXACTLY like that when I was only 15. I am 60 now. I sold it when I was 22 and I still regret selling that guitar. I am a left handed guitarist too.

[@mslaerik66]

I have visited this guitar 3 times like visiting a holy shrine I noticed they changed the display box

[@mariedemastes355]

OMG Jordan that was Awesome, you just get better and better ! cant wait to see the next part !!!

[@mauretto123]

this Fender before he got to the museum was held by Red Ronni, a music character in Italy, then sold to the owner of the Seattle museum

[@debbiemoeller2169]

MOST AWESOME!!! I'm also a Jimi Hendrix maniac❤🤗. Amazing trip so far. Thank you! Be safe. Much love to you and Jah ❤❤❤❤❤

[@carlamurray9696]

Glad to see u in Seattle! Must of been filmed before this storm hit! We have 21 + inches here in Port Angeles! When u r ready to go home sure hope this doesn't head ur departure!

[@trevorgwelch7412]

Where is Jimi’s Marshall Amps ????

[@WvhKerkhof]

I had a piece of toiletpaper used by hendrix, we had it for years in the family.

[@denis65]

I went to it 10 or so years ago when it was called Experience Music Project. It's a really cool place and has had some changes since I was there, i.e. the Chris Cornell statue, etc. Can't wait to see more vlogs from it

[@bernardofitzpatrick5403]

Awesome Jimi Hendrix memorabilia

[@sandranokes7443]

The Jimi room was special because Jimi was Paul Allen's favorite. I probably will always call it EMP. I don't get the constantly renaming places for other people or other reasons. Experience Music Project was Paul Allen's baby and it should still be called EMP. The first time I went there, they had a Janis Joplin display, and there was one of the boa's she wore around her neck. I just lost it. I stood there and cried like a baby. I've always loved her and seeing just opened up all those emotions. It is an amazing place to go and see for anyone who loves music. Stay safe in the snow!

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

I read it has been renamed like 5 times

[@zagrix]

it would be a dream to just strum that guitar at least once

[@Notmatb]

Agreed. I would love to play a Jimi Hendrix lick on it. Even tho it would sound like shit compared to how he would play his songs

[@scottieburnett5606]

Wow! Thanks!!!

[@sambarlex8401]

Whats the outro song

[@r.seymore8557]

I was watching backstage footage of jimi before he goes back on for his encore and I noticed one of his roadies with another white stratocaster, am assuming a backup for the show. Does anyone have any info on that?

[@Badfingerbabe777]

I'm a huge Jimi fan, love seeing this stuff. The necklace and woodstock guitar. I wonder where the woodstock outfit is at with the lovely white fringe??

[@horacelee880]

God created JIMI to show the world what could be done with 6strings attached to a piece of wood! Many have copied his licks but his persona & influence are untouchable.Even in death his music inspires! IMHO RIP JIMI you`ll never be forgotten

Glad you made the guitar leap!

[@nicirvin1994]

Okay.. A stupid question.. But how.. Or why is a Mixing desk a sucker...?

[@moimeme7839]

Old mixing desk are quite rare and the analog technology thing is still very prised, they talk about that in the recording video of Lamb of god while they record with that type of material and the album is an epic one. That technology gets things very complicated to accomodate final mixing, that’s why it’s not much used today. Recording with these is pure tone
