Anybody have a preferred site for guitar tabs?

He played the guitar upside down so his fingers are doing things normal guitar players' never do...

I'm pretty sure I do things normal guitar players never do anyway and that's not a necessarily good thing.

Not exactly my point.

Most of us either position our thumb on the back of the neck or over the top edge, over the low E string. When Hendrix hung his thumb over the top of the neck, he was actually touching the HIGH E string. He also had exceptionally long fingers, which allowed him to do very unconventional things.

The best example I can think of is this:

The normal fingering for a G chord would use the ring and pinky fingers to press the 3rd fret on the high B and E strings. Hendrix used his THUMB to fret those notes.

Trying to reproduce Hendrix, note for a note, is really a waste of time for conventional guitar players.
