I never think of this fingering as a ‘Hendrix’ chord.
THE ‘Hendrix’ chord is the E7#9 (as in Purple Haze).

My mistake. I thought that I had read that in the past. Thanks for pointing out the error of my ways🙂.

Your penance is 10 Hey Joe's and a Wind Cries Mary.

A couple of hacks: - Try rolling your wrist and muting the 5th string with your thumb, instead of sounding it. You don’t always need it. - Try rolling your wrist the other way, and let the index finger mute the 1st string, unless you need it. - If you don’t need to strum the whole chord, use the technique of rolling the wrist to make either the upper or lower part of the chord sound cleanly. You can do this pretty quickly. It takes practice to get good at using the thumb, but it’s really worth it, even for other chords. |

Practice works. This chord is much easier now but the instrument does matter for me in this case. Certain necks facilitate the chord change while others require more effort. I’ll keep playing.
