PRS HDRX 20 vs Marshall Plexi vs AMP1 !

Jimi Hendrix is widely regarded as one of the greatest guitarists of all time, known for his innovative playing style and distinctive sound. Hendrix's guitar tone was heavily influenced by his use of amplifiers, particularly the Marshall 100-watt stack. This amplifier gave his guitar a thick, saturated sound that formed the foundation for his multi-layered sound, which combined effects pedals such as fuzz, wah-wah, Univibe, and octave pedals.

PRS has released three amps based on Jimi's Marshall Super Lead, which he played at Woodstock. We have the PRS HDRX 20 Head, an Indonesian-made mini Plexi, here to compare it to Thomas's real old original Marshall Plexis and, of course, the AMP1 Mercury Edition. It's always worth investigating Jimi's unique and unforgettable sound and high-energy playing style, which has influenced countless guitarists in the decades since his death.
