I don't really understand the stylistic comparisons between Frusciante and Hendrix, granted I've only got two of his solo albums but there definitely isn't a bluesy or hard rock vibe in either of them.
Niandra Lades is mostly sparse acoustic arrangements with the electric guitar squalling in the background.

Someone want to post a song which illustrates the similarities?

you've never heard 'under the bridge' by the chili peppers?

Indeed, but the similarities still seems superficial. Then again, I know nothing about guitar playing...

Or, for that matter, their cover of Hendrix's "Fire".

I'd say that John Mayer resembles a modern Hendrix more definitively than Frusciante does. I mean, I don't listen to the guy, but even his tone is very reminiscent of SRV & Hendrix.

There is no such thing as a modern Hendrix. There was and will always be only one Hendrix. This goes for everything.
