Jimi performed with his band Gypsy Sun and Rainbows, not with the Jimi Hendrix Experience that original Woodstock promoters stated. Bassist Billy Cox (who would later be part of the Band of Gypsies group that Hendrix debuted a few months after Woodstock), drummer Mitch Mitchell (from The Experience), guitarist Larry Lee and two percussionists performed with Hendrix during the festival and Hendrix's Woodstock group was the largest band he had ever performed with.

Why did jimi Hendrix play a righty guitar?
Jimmi was a left handed guitarist. But as a young, non-performer, he did not have very much money. Lefty guitars were tough to find and more expensive than righty guitars since they were so rare. Jimmi decided to go ahead and buy the righty guitar and he switched the strings so that the only difference was that the guitar was flipped. The strings were the same as when a righty played it because he flipped those and the strap was also flipped so that he could stand and play.
