Sidetracked
I wasn't looking for this either but it's rare to find Hendrix playing acoustic.
He looks so young. Hard to believe he was older than me when this was taped.

He's older than me by three years - that would put him in a small and dwindling club if he were still alive. I've never heard him attempt the Delta Blues like that and he doesn't really compete with the old masters of the Genre, but there was never anyone like him, of course.
I'm really intrigued by that beautiful custom 12 string. I wonder who made it - Bozo Padunovac? Just a guess.
Yeah, he didn't do it that well, but it was interesting to see him try. Having hung out with musicians most of my life, he reminds me of many really great players when they were just starting out and exploring their craft.
As for the guitar, I haven't a clue but it surely is pretty.
