Jimi Hendrix - Wild Thing (Live At Monterey Pop Festival, 1967) #iloveguitars the fender stratocaster. Probably the electric guitar that comes to mind for anyone thinking of an electric guitar. Everyone considers it the most versatile instrument thanks to its three pickups and the 5-way switch. Personally, I don't like the shape... and it annoys the hell out of me that the volume knob is too close to the strings (I always tend to touch it when I play and inadvertently lower the volume) but how it sounds!!! And how this big guy made it sound... even though I believe he could have made a Bontempi toy guitar sound great. Uncle Jimi... what can I say??
