Jimi Hendrix - Experience Hendrix Reviews:
One of the best!!! 
2007-01-09 - What can I say?? Hendrix is amazing... And this songbook will make your guitar cry with all of it... And the best thing is that your drummer and bass player can take a pick too!!!
Precise and detailed 
2006-11-07 - This is a great work- I am wholeheartedly impressed.
The transcriptions here are full scores, meaning that every instrument played on each studio recording is notated in sheet music and then tabbed out in the language of that instrument. There is also about a half page description before each song discussing its unique features and mechaincs.
The guitarist who is interested in understanding Jimi's style and techniques could do so with this book, the album itself, and perhaps a few other recordings. And drummers would do well to analyze it also.
As far as quality, the level of detail and accuracy is like nothing I've ever seen in a music book. The author has done the impossable by taking Jimi's techniques and notating them all on paper. Truly impressive, and truly useful.

2006-06-01 - First off, this book is HUGE. Almost 400 pages. The biggest tab book I have by half of the book. Hendrix is god on the guitar, no one could compare to him then or now. I love all his songs, now I finally know how to play them. Still working on actually playing them. Every song in this book is awesome. Even the "Star Spangled Banner". I play it COMPLETELY different.
Hendrix 
2006-03-04 - Book is very accurate and thorough. There is a paragraph or two about theory (key, scales, techniques) to begin each song. It incudes all solos as well as rythm, and even bass lines. Great book.
Couldn't Have Been Happier! 
2005-09-25 - I'm no top notch guitarist who can play some Hendrix with their eye's closed, but i'm all right, and I couldn't have been happier with this book. The Tabs to me seemed like they were dead on accurate. I must admit that some of the chords Mr. Hendrix used are kinda crazy when your fretting them but once you get used to it you'll be allright. If you just got into Hendrix or have been into his music for some time this book won't do you wrong!!
