I believe the Führer who on one hand believed in giftedness and special providence, but on the other was a technology nut would have taken a comprehensive, inclusive approach: Jimi's hands AND the pedals. The latter in splinter pattern camouflage of course.
Would have Hitler accepted Jimi Hendrix as a great guitarist? Though a raging racist (even if blacks, who played no visible role in 1930ies Germany, were not in his focus), he could be appreciative of black people's performances too, albeit with a racist slant: When Jesse Owens won gold medals in the 1936 Nazi Olympics in Berlin
the Führer was reported to have jested among his minions "that it really wasn't fair to let white men run against this guy with a physique straight from the jungle".
Much has been written about Hitler allegedly snubbing Owens by not wishing to shake his hand after his victories and hurrying to leave the stadium early - that was part of conventional history for decades in Germany as well, it just fitted the picture. But the Führer could be polite and even charming where he deemed it fit or useful. Owens himself - who while in Berlin resided in first class hotels he could have only entered as a bell boy at home - claimed that Hitler waved to him and did shake his hand, and there reputedly was even a photograph of it at least two other people saw. Owens stated that he never felt snubbed by Hitler, but rather by his own President as Roosevelt - in the midst of an election run trying to secure crucial Southern Democrat votes - neither sent Owens a telegram congratulating him or ever invited him to the White House in the aftermath.
For the avoidance of doubt: That doesn't reverse Roosevelt's and Hitler's respective positions on the good and bad scale. Just goes to show that racism can be a poison running in the veins of even the otherwise good-hearted and that Hitler sometimes refused to follow the script.
