I noticed the hot rail pickups but not the logoless headstock. It would make sense that Frank would want a shorter scale length, to feel more like like his SG. I understood the Frank’s Hendrix guitar was the one that was burned in the famous photo.

I saw Frank play, with the Mothers, at the Electric Factory in Philadelpha, may years ago.

Non guitar freaks may safely ignore this conversation.

It’s a custom built generic Strat type. The neck is not a fender scale length.

FZ was mainly a Gibson player. His career of greatest improvement as a guitarist were made during the years of him wielding Gibsons, so he kind of got used to the scale length. He made another leap when he was sold a (SG style) guitar with an extra fret e flat… so then had guitar necks made with Gibson Scale, and 23 frets.

His Hendrix guitar was Hendrix body, with neck type discussed.

This performance you see above was from Barcelona 1988, and broadcast on TVE (espania) just before the Bull fighting. I was there!

I liked his music. Still do!
