We had the pleasure of meeting the players on the Experience Hendrix Tour during their Toronto concert on October 28, 2010. Thanks go out to the Experience Hendrix LLC for their hospitality. Fender was a sponsor of the Experience Hendrix Tour.

After testing backstage, seven players on the tour used JAM Pedals during the Toronto concert and have become endorsees.

Los Lobos

Cesar Rosas: JAM Retrovibe, JAM Boomster, JAM DelayLLama+ (Waterfall on order)
David Hidalgo: JAM Waterfall, JAM Red Muck

David and Cesar also tested the T1 Amps PK45 Prototype and were very impressed. We hope to build a couple for Los Lobos! I can't say enough about how warm and welcoming David and Cesar were, especially to my 14 year old son Alexander who had the thrill of seeing his stars backstage and watching the concert from the side of the stage.

Kenny Wayne Shepherd: JAM DelayLLama+

Kenny was the first to test the whole line of JAM Pedals and T1 Amp prototype in his dressing room. His comments were very helpful and he chose to use the DelayLlama+ during the concert.

Jonny Lang: DelayLlama+

Jonny Lang tested the JAM Pedals and T1 Amp after Kenny. Jonny also chose the JAM DelayLlama+ and placed it in this Experience Hendrix tour pedal board. Here is a picture of Jonny testing the JAM Pedals backstage .

Robert Randolf the Steel Brothers

Chuck Campbell- JAM Waterfall
Darick Campbell - JAM Fuzz Phrase

As David Hidalgo of Los Lobos said, its (not so) Sacred Steel anymore as Robert Randolph, Chuck and Darick Campbell all used JAM Pedals on stage with Experience Hendrix. Robert and Chuck were amazed at how good the JAM Waterfall sounded with their Pedal Steels. Darick used the JAM Fuzz Phrase in his rig.

Brad Whitford (Aerosmith)

Brad was in on the tests and asked for a card. We hope to ask him to the ToneConcepts and JAM Pedals Family of artists.

AWESOME!

I'd like to catch one of those shows sometime. It's really cool that so many greats pay homage to the legend & rock guitar pioneer Jimi Hendrix!

Few have hit the scene in such a groundbreaking way with a stlye ALL THEIR OWN... Jimi Hendrix was one of those few.

still "REIGNING" still dreaming.

Thanks for the welcome everyone. It was great to check out all of the Fender artists backstage.

Kenny Wayne Shepherd's dressing room was next door to Eric Johnson's.

It was great to check out David Hidalgo's Custom Shop Tele up close after seeing it on stage at Crossroads.

Only midway through the show did I realize that I should snap some pictures ... and then I didn't fell like snapping to many backstage (finding it intrusive personally).

Great bunch of people. Really mellow vibe backstage. A real thrill for my son so be able to hang with his guitarists he admires and have them welcome him warmly.
