this song is in the tunning of Eb or dropped 1/2 step and if you think you can reproduce
entire song perfectly with these incredible sounds he prduced, you better break your
over your head. This song can not be perfectly reproduced and can't be played without a
fender stratocaster guitar like Jimi's.
Tunning: half a step-Eb
