Full Description

The ginormous Jim Root

A man who surely needs no introduction. Jim Root is a household name in the metal world, having been one of Slipknot’s legendary guitarists for almost three decades, as well as the former guitarist of Stone Sour. His riffs are deadly yet groovy, his stage presence calm yet fierce. His signature guitar is a representation of him and his sound, the simple finish belying the finesse and attention to detail of this guitar.

Demonic Daemonums

There's a choir of demons inside these magnets. The EMG Jim Root Daemonum set features some of the most vicious, punchy, crushing tones you'll ever hear. Made to the specifications of the metal master himself, they're designed for powerful chugging and cutting solos. But Jim Root is a dynamic guitarist - and his pickups represent this. They clean up nicely, and were developed over three years to ensure they sound stunning in virtually any situation.

However, these demonic sonic weapons will undoubtedly be remembered for their unrelenting, merciless, devastating crunch and percussive high-end. There’s no stopping you when you’ve got Daemonums at the heart of your tone. They keep your sound sharp and your axe heavy.

Prime playability

No barriers. The Charvel Jim Root Pro-Mod was made for exceptionally fast playing. You'll find that the maple neck both looks slick and feels sublimely smooth in your hand – you'll be free to play in your own style. And the maple fretboard only adds to this, being exceptionally smooth and sweet to the touch. You can make your notes sing thanks to its bright resonance, which will give your riffs even more tightness and crispness. Whether you want to play as fast as lightning or go at a slower pace, these superb tools will help you achieve everything you desire on the instrument. Plus, for an extra special touch, Charvel have added luminlay side dots, so you can comfortably play in the dark.
