Sixty years have passed since Jimi Hendrix first plugged his guitar into a Marshall amp. To mark the milestone, Marshall has unveiled the Major V Hendrix Edition, which PAP unboxed and experienced firsthand. The first thing that catches the eye is the purple pattern flowing over the black. Inspired by Hendrix's love of space, sci-fi, and the color purple, the psychedelic design features the distinctive All-Seeing Eye motif.
Turn it on, and the Hendrix universe captured in the design extends into sound. When powered on and paired, the headphones play a Hendrix riff. Wireless playback lasts over 100 hours. A single charge keeps you going for more than four days.
The relationship between Marshall and Hendrix, which began with a guitar amp in 1966, now lives on through headphones. Back then, Hendrix pushed Marshall amps to the edge of distortion and rewrote the sound of rock. This edition offers a chance to revisit the sonic legacy he left behind.
The design stays true to Marshall's signature language. Black leather texture, metal frame, and foldable structure all carry that unmistakable Marshall feel. The purple splatter pattern seals Hendrix's presence into the piece. What would be the first song you'd listen to with this edition?
