About the Classes: This three-day seminar will be a master's class aimed at digging into the sounds, techniques, writing style and influences of Jimi Hendrix. Jimi’s unique sound came from his hands as well as his equipment, and the seminar will delve into many aspects of his musical genius. We will work through many of the fingering techniques that Hendrix used, including a closer look at the pedals and amplifiers he used. We will also spend some time examining the influences that Hendrix drew upon to create some of the most recognizable and well-respected music ever recorded. In addition to these discussions, the sessions will provide a number of musical examples to help each student put it all together in a comprehensive approach to incorporate the elements they have learned into their own music and playing style.
