That reverse tilted bridge pickup kinda looks awkward if you're not wearing the guitar left-handed.

Or maybe that's just me. IDK

This is great and all. It is obviously a beautiful guitar, signature or not. But, one major design flaw is the bridge. And, the body as well, so, make that two. Folks from Fender flipped everything from the neck to the pickups, but, forgot to flip-over or reverse the bridge and the body. Thus, defeating the purpose of producing a Jimi Hendrix Signature guitar. If you're going to honor THE MAN by making and releasing a signature guitar to commemorate his legacy, better do it right without compromise!

Fender certainly got it right the first time in 1997 when they released this Tribute Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster in the market. Not sure why they're releasing something now that cannot be associated with Jimi, but, they should have continued producing this instead.
