Recording Notes

• Hendrix's use of the Stratocaster's tremolo arm is a key element in creating the song's psychedelic vibe.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Fender Stratocaster and a Marshall-style amp. A Fuzz Face is essential to replicate the overdriven sound.
• Experiment with the Stratocaster's pickup selector to find the sweet spot.
• Use a light touch on the tremolo arm to add subtle vibrato.
• Record with a dynamic microphone placed close to the amp's speaker to capture the raw energy of the performance.
