According to Greg Quill from TheStar.com, known as the great champion and saviour of the Fender Stratocaster, JIMI HENDRIX was rarely seen playing any other instrument. But he did make an appearance with this top-of-the-line 1967 Gibson SG Custom on the TV variety-talk program The Dick Cavett Show on Sept. 9,1969. (Click here for YouTube video.)

The guitar, one of the Hard Rock Café franchise's most prized relics, will be on display in the memorabilia collection for the next two months. Toronto guitarist and SG expert Danny Marks deconstructs the distinctive features of Jimi's axe
