Experience Hendrix, the family company established by
James Al Hendrix, the late father of the legendary guitarist, and after many months of painstaking research.
Not only is this the latest addition to
Marshall's ongoing series of handwired, reissue amplifiers, it also celebrates the 40th Anniversary of the world famous association of the late, great
Jimi Hendrix and
Marshall amplifiers and pays homage to the legendary guitarist that
Dr. Jim Marshall OBE has always referred to as his company's "greatest ever ambassador."
"Anyone who truly knew
Jimi was well aware of how seriously he took his instruments and equipment,"
Janie Hendrix, the President/CEO of
Experience Hendrix, states. "To achieve the sound he heard playing inside, he had to have the right tools. Gauging from his performances, he clearly embraced
Marshall amps. We too embrace
Marshall because it allowed us to hear
Jimi as we never would have before, with the truest sound and most feeling. We are happy to see the past re-birthed in the form of this
Jimi Hendrix signature amp stack. It is our pleasure to partner with
Marshall Amplification in giving volume to the legacy of
Jimi."
