The String The legacy of famed guitar deity Jimi Hendrix is not to be taken lightly. When it comes to getting involved in a Hendrix guitar-related project, one better know what one is doing. After extensive research, company president Dean Markley and his staff were able to determine with some certainty that Hendrix played different types of strings at different points in his career. Using the knowledge gained from their research, the engineers at Dean Markley Strings have developed two types of Jimi Hendrix strings, both of which deliver the string qualities the guitarist would look for were he playing today. These Jimi Hendrix Nickel Plated Steel strings reflect the type of string used by Hendrix later in his career.
The String
Jimi started recording with Pure Nickel strings. That’s one of the sounds you hear. Yeah, there are lots of amps involved, but the very beginning sound came from the strings. The Pure Nickel outer wrap has a special Vintage tone that no other string has. We’ve reproduced that original Hendrix Pure Nickel String.
