THE ART of ENGINEERING
“ We ’ ve had the opportunity to examine one of Jimi Hendrix ’ s touring amps and understand not just the circuit but the modifications and the parts choices that were made as Hendrix continued to use the amp . We kept historic specs where it made sense , and we made substitutions based on availability , safety , and experience . In the end , I think we have made a great-sounding amplifier with exceptional build quality and enough power to blow your pantleg when you play it .
These HX amps are intended to sound exactly the same as Hendrix ’ s touring rig , not look exactly the same . But we know this is hallowed ground . We feel privileged to reach back into history and bring something special into the current music landscape .” - Paul Reed Smith
