*me trying to sleep* my brain : how jim root can play metal on that jazzmaster & strat and damn tele

@djjohnson838 4 жыл бұрын

Slipknot isn't my favorite band but Jim Root definitely has my favorite guitar. Love the feel of the Stratocaster and it sets up for metal really well. 10/10

I'm so happy I found this video, because there are not many demos of the strat! I have been waiting for mine for one and a half months because there is a shortage in Europe but I'm due to receive it in a week or so and I can't wait

Hi SMR, may I ask if you've had tuning issues with this strat? I'm planning to get it and play in standard or Eflat. Can I expect tune drops with large bends?

@SpiritOfOrange 6 жыл бұрын

Great review of a great guitar. I have both black & white versions, they sound, play & stay in tune great. I’m sure there are dot markers on the side of the fretboard for both Tele, Strat and Jazz versions? Check out the Fender Jim Adkins Telecaster - a Fender guitar with a set neck.

@davidsollenberger2998 6 жыл бұрын

Fender does make neck throughs. There have been some Tele’s for years. Also the locking tuners are used on the Elite models as well. Nice demo though.

I want is so bad! But you should also check the new LTD SN1 HT, because it seems like a good comparison :) Thanks for the excellent review Ray

Do you see a real difference between the Tele (mexican Fenfer) and the strat (US Fender) ? I had the first one, it was great, and i'm expecting to buy the start and hoping to have a best feeling and finiton (the price is higher so... I am expecting to have something better).

@pandudewanta4366 4 жыл бұрын

Ray, is this strato's size like a normal one? or is it slightly bigger? I mean to me it's a bit bigger haha. And how tall are you if I could ask.

Oh, just saw this on your pedal demo. It's well mean looking. Reminds me of some of the satin Jericho guitars. I can't help but wonder if it could have done with a matching black headstock.

@xanderraymondcharles 6 жыл бұрын

Hey Chris whats up man. Actually I've seen Jim Root's Red Jazzmaster has a black headstock. So they do do it, I think it's only a custom order. You could always just use a sharpie haha

@tylernoice8770 6 жыл бұрын

Neil Y.Maggot If it's not too late to respond, I would HIGHLY recommend the Fishman Fluence Stephen Carpenter set. The low end is so beefy but yet all the notes resonate so well. They are very well balanced. Also the set has a glow in the dark strip that goes across the pickup and when it's not lit, it's white and complements the white border on the pickguard.

@xanderraymondcharles 6 жыл бұрын

HEY MAN IT'S NOT OO LATE I'VE STILL GOT THIS BAD BOY. DO THEY MAKE THE STEPHEN CARPENTER SET IN A SIX STRING VERSION? THANKS

@shadowalk 5 жыл бұрын

Not to be a prick but do you REALLY need to change the EMGs? I see too many metal guitarists nowadays always jumping on the fishman fluence bandwagon without really hearing them firsthand and just because they’re the ‘hot new’ metal pickups today.

@matthewg3478 5 жыл бұрын

Fender has quite a few models that have a set neck or are neck through. The Showmaster series has a large following. I like bolt on necks myself. Easier to replace/upgrade. It's all personal preference tho. I also don't like fret markets on the face of the finger board. To each his own.

Doesn't sound bad at all. I really want to get one, but i'm also stuck between choosing a signature guitar and choosing a custom guitar with hardware that i prefer to the signature model that i want. Choices choices bro. 😂

Can you please tell me about the neck profile/shape? I like a thin neck like Jackson's and Schecters.

It's a standard fender neck so its wide while being pretty meaty, probably not what you would want

fender's american elite series standard strats come with locking tuners. Same with tele's, same with all fender american elite range guitars. The no SS frets on a sig model does stink. I'd gladly pay extra for SS frets

My biggest issue with this guitar is the lack of a tone control. Guitar would be ideal for me if it had a master tone control. I also agree that the SS frets would be a nice upgrade.
