The transcriptions here are full scores, meaning that every instrument played on each studio recording is notated in sheet music and then tabbed out in the language of that instrument. There is also about a half page description before each song discussing its unique features and mechaincs.
The guitarist who is interested in understanding Jimi's style and techniques could do so with this book, the album itself, and perhaps a few other recordings. And drummers would do well to analyze it also.
As far as quality, the level of detail and accuracy is like nothing I've ever seen in a music book. The author has done the impossable by taking Jimi's techniques and notating them all on paper. Truly impressive, and truly useful.
Each song is preceded by a brief description and history of the song itself. They're about as well written as something you'd expect from a 6th grader, with a few SAT words peppered in there to trick us into believing that what we're reading is intellectually charged (it's not).
But that's perfectly fine. If I was looking for some interesting reading about Jimi Hendrix, I would have bought a biography. Instead, I wanted a comprehensive book of guitar tab so that I could learn how to accurately play my favorite songs. On that count, this books delivers in spades.
The only thing is that, being a female, my hands aren't as big as mens' hands, so it's hard to play some of these peices because Jimi uses his thumb as a bass line on the low E string while playing on the higher strings. I'd need to buy a ladies guitar to play these.

3〜5千円と高価になり、そうそう買えなくなりました。
アマゾンからの、おすすめ品で、輸入楽譜の扱いを知り、
値段も、大手楽器店などの、輸入コーナーの半額くらいで、
国内出版よりも、はるかに安いので、かなり利用してます。
輸入楽譜は、演奏記号や、TAB譜の表記が、慣れるまでは、
見づらいというか、国内版と違っていて戸惑うのですが、
このジミ・ヘンドリックスのスコアは、シンコーのものも、
輸入版の解説文を訳しただけなので、ほとんど同じ楽譜です。
バンドスコアは、ドラムやベースが、繰り返し記号ばかりで、
フィルインや、細かいフレーズの違いが、無視されがちですが、
このヘンドリックスのは、かなり細部まで、採譜されてます。
当然、ギターも完コピですが、独特のタイム感のフレーズを、
譜割りに押し込んでいるので、譜面どおりでは似てこないし、
TABのポジションも、あれっと思うところもありますが、
自分で、耳コピするよりは、楽に、弾けるようになります。
全般にHAL出版のバンドスコア、TABは、質も良くて、
シンコーでも、カバーだけ付けて、洋書販売していますが、
同じものが、アマゾンで安く買えるから、助かっています。
