Jimi Hendrix did not actually cut off his finger; this is a myth. However, he did have a notable incident in 1969 where he sustained a serious injury to his finger while playing with a guitar, which led to some speculation and rumors about his finger. Hendrix's unique guitar playing and style often drew attention, but there is no verified account of him losing a finger.

Ted Nugent has claimed for years that he jammed with Jimi Hendrix on several occasions, but no recordings or 3rd-party accounts have ever confirmed that Nugent ever met Hendrix. The boastful nature of his claims -- he says he once jammed with both Hendrix and B.B. King and "blew them off the stage" (his words) -- coupled with Nugent's well-documented nonsensical rants about the government, hunting, and extreme rightwing politics would seem to indicate that he probably never jammed with Hendrix.
Jerry did not cut it off, it was his brother who accidentally cut it off while they were chopping wood. It was the forefinger of the right hand.

Jerry Garcia from the Grateful Dead had his middle finger of his left hand (he was right handed) chopped off at the second knuckle by his brother Tiff while chopping wood in Northern California when he was 9 years old. He would later say that he used his knub to hold his pick allowing him to switch from picking to finger-picking quickly.
well the first thing that u want to do is make sure your finger is not breathing or talking. Get a plastic fork place it on your finger and there you go, cut the finger off. But only cut it off when there is no life in your finger.
