Jimi Hendrix' Gear and Mods at West Coast Organ and Amp

[frenchie]

That audience pic shows nothing, IMO and not clear what show it's from.
You're delusional. You believe in fantasy and fairy tales. Please ignore my posts cause to me, and others, you make no sense.

Wow that guy is delusional ..."not clear from what show it is from " ??? seriously ???? as you just posted a pics from bog performance with a volfgang's vault stamp on it ??? like this audience photo with volfgang's vault stamp on it ??? so now you see it , whereas just two minutes before you didn't saw it ?

MODS ...please .... this "stinky way" of polluting threads with face palms is really really annoying , in fact far too much from someone who only has 4-6 posts in there ....

So because it's stamped "Wolfgang's Vault" it's automatically a BOG pic? Wolfgang's has tons of pics from other shows from the Fillmore. Plus, what exactly does this audience pic show? A speaker cab in the audience? So, Jimi is "spreading his sound" ??

4-6 posts? I'm studying Jimi Hendrix since 1971. I''m one of the major Jimi concert collectors on the East Coast. I got a concert and photo archive that would gape your ass it's so extensive. What are you crying to the mods for?

Can any one tell me what this is on the front of the stage at Berkeley. I have wondered for years. you can see it great during voodoo Child at Berkely but there is no video on you tube.

look the site it's sold as one bog pic yes ... or sue him for false advertisement ?....
yes a speaker cab under the balcony .... which monitors no shit to jimi ...but is powered by something...
In here yes you're a 4-6 poster , no one gives a fuck about your authority argument of being a collector ,
you either could be just lying your ass off ... or trolling ...or name calling ...
you have great photos yes , like everyone here .... but you analyse them very poorly ...
as your tactics to lure me into name calling you by slandering everything i can say ... i won't be banned winnie get over with it now

walking deads aren't meant to understand, and live in a good society, they're rather just meant to bite ... lol ...

HHHHrrraaaaarhh , AAAaaRRhhhHHHHH !! ( a walking dead, banned a certain amount of times, coming back even though he "doesn't care about what's said here, since it's BS from a to z", )

come on .... not again ......
frenchie, nevermind, just let it go ...

Well I'm not completely fixed, but I sure like all the great photos.
I do wonder though, just how much bass monitoring do you think Jimi needs, especially right next to him?
And if Jimi needs all that much bass right there, doesn't the bass player need the same kind of setup to hear the guitar?
Knowing what I did about Jimi, and based on my own experiences with re-amping, it would not surprise me to find some of that going on too.
Essentially, that's what the big PA systems became in later years. Neil Young did it. Waddy Wachtel did it, Denielle Edwards did it, Gary Rowles did it, so many guys that played guitar did it when I worked in Hollywood that it only seems logical that Jimi would have done it too. Gary Rowles told me that Jimi taught him about re-amping first, and the Guild is surely proof that SOME kind of re-amping was going on somewhere along the way, otherwise why would Jimi have us do the mod to his amp that had no other purpose?.
It would be hard to say from the photos you posted what was happening on those stages other than SOME kind of major monitoring, but it was sure nice to see the captured images. Maybe you'll be able to solve the 6550 puzzle, with pics of the back of the amps or something, West Coast Stickers, open backs, what have you.

Where are those cabs for his entire 70 tour? Nowhere to be found. Where's the reamping during 1970? Woodstock? Harlem? I can name many '69 shows where those cabs just aren't there. There's no reamping. This is the first time I'm hearing claims of this and there is no proof, just like the noise clip posted is NOT Jimi. 45 years, NOBODY has suggested such things except you, who offer nothing in the way of proof. This thread is heavy on BS

which surely means jimi didn't needed bass monitoring most of the time by the way , even with daisy chained plexis blowing hot air in his ears ... great point stink way thank you

[daveweyer]

Stinkway maybe you're right. But please check out the pics of Jimi's amp that Xplorer posted and tell me why Jimi would have West Coast Organ and Amp Service put re-amping mods in that Guild amp.
I mean, isn't that proof enough that there was some kind of re-amping going on? The physical evidence is right there for all to see, it's not like anyone could make up the amp out of thin air.

Which surely means he's wasn't "spreading the sound" PS, Photos show Altec Lansing cabs right behind Mitch, used as monitors.

No proof the Guild was even his. Really.....none of this stuff was mentioned in the Guitar Player original article. I have serious doubts of what you are claiming here as I did the original GP article.

PS, Jimi's signal path is pretty easy to see. Photos show guitar to wah to Fuzz to amp. The amps were jumped. Where's the Guild? Backstage? If it even exists, how is it plugged in when you can CLEARLY see Jimi's signal path?

Because PA systems and monitoring systems had improved, genius. Wasn't needed

yeah so there was P.A improvements right ( that's my point exactly ,geez it took you long to talk openly about re-amping )..ok
so you also say there was monitoring improvements so huge that there wasn't even a need for a single monitoring cab on stage by 1970 ?
monitoring out of thin air ...that's an interesting concept ! what ear plugs ? like the sonys you find on walkmans ? no don't tell me ....wireless ones ! that's it !

is it nice travelling the rabbit hole alice ?

[stinkway]

No bias. Common sense. Something you don't seem to have. I said, if you knew how to read, there were huge Altec Lancing cabs onstage for monitoring during the 1970 shows.

really sad, you're an ignorant idiot. PS, you cannot PROVE the use of a Guild amp (for reamping) no photos of it, etc. Yet, any idiot can see Jimi's signal chain from guitar to pedals to amp. You CANNOT prove otherwise. LOL

There's the Altecs. Photo evidence. Something you can't produce. You lose

first we never said it was direct signal re-amping , but (at least me) mic'ed then fed to guild 's input then fed to sunn cabs ....So it's pretty obvious the signal chain is pretty standard from guitar to plexis ...second i know how to read , for if i didn't , i wouldn't be able to see the pitiful display of your name calling and pseudo authority arguments you try to pass as logic ...i can ( and i did ) prove at least one sunn cab was directed to the public and not on stage in the bog show , which shows the re-amping , i also did prove 6550 were in the first plexi of the woodstock performance .... You cannot disprove the logic of my arguments so in the last pages you carefully thread around my arguments , either you try to forget they are here and focus on petty side points , or authoritatively just say they are not possible without explaining why or how .... You clearly are the lunatic here .... And it's pretty bizarre you're still not banned considering the collection of free insults you spread around , this way polluting friendly and constructive threads ....
