Notes

Live performance at Winterland, San Francisco, October 10, 1968. Gear based on period-correct live photos and multiple Hendrix rig rundowns for 1968. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for clean sections. Studio vs live: LIVE. No evidence of alternate amp channels or secondary clean amp.

Difficulty

The clean solo requires intermediate control of picking dynamics and guitar volume to maintain clarity and prevent breakup on a loud Marshall amp, but does not involve advanced technical runs or complex chord voicings.
