Jimi Hendrix

Hear me play Star-Spangled Banner


Star-Spangled Banner

Equipment Note: If you're planning on this sounding like Jimi Hendrix, you're going to need what he had. Mainly, you need a wammy bar, with a seperate distortion pedal hooked up to your amp (unless your mommy bought you a studio pedal with 3-mix). On your pedal, combine auto-wah with Uni-Vibe or Flange.
