“I think it makes me sound more like Hendrix, don’t you?” David Gilmour saves Comfortably Numb performance after his Jimi Hendrix guitar strap snaps mid-song

Whether you’re a complete beginner or a certified legend of the instrument, no one is immune to electric guitar mishaps. Just ask David Gilmour.

The Pink Floyd legend kicked off his world tour in support of Luck and Strange, his first solo album in nine years, in Rome last month, and was halfway through Comfortably Numb on September 28 when his guitar strap – which may have been one that once belonged to Jimi Hendrix – completely snapped mid-song.
