dude you look like cool with that mask and nice guitar i just started playing the guitar (not electric) and i wanted to ask you if you think people can play slipknot music on it ?
@HPIRacingDENMARK Shut up!He looks cool!But you need one more item!A small rope with mediator on fingers:)Then you will be a copy of young James;)(Sorry for my english,I'm from Ukraine:))
i like how you get into it, you can tell just by the way your strumming that you want to stand up and start headbanging. no one else does that on youtube :P
@thelogheart thanks :-) To be honest I hate this video, I did it ages ago and I just don't really like much about the way I played it - but it seems to get a good amount of views so will keep it up until I re-do it lol, cheers tho!
Do you have any problems with the finish on the guitar? ive seen a review where the paint has started to fade in patches, has this happened to you? And where did you get that AMAZING mask from?
@downwiththeswineflu hi mate i sold the Tele because i didn't like the way it played after a few months, seemed to change for some reason i have no idea if that's because i had a duff one or not lol, the paint fades where you rest your palm etc..
@pivetlord13 hey dude, yeah i know Jim said that, in fact I liked the paint job. I could have been painted bright pink for alll i care, i just didnt like the way it played y'know? that's the reason i sold it
@downwiththeswineflu just had o comment on the finish i was watching a video review of jim root and he basicly said the paint job was made that way to get a kind of a worn look just type in jim root the video will tell ya more have a good one
People think Mick is better than James just for his speed and that stuff, but if you really think it he is good just for the time he has played the guitar, but he isn't a real master like James... Both
But, anyway SlipKnoT is AWESOME and every member make slipknot special
Mick Thompson is way better than Jim Root, Corey and Jim are too soft, Now Mick, he's a Metalhead for Life. Mick Thompson's guitar is way better than Jim Root's guitar.
theyve got very different styles tho. mick has a much more aggressive style, where as jim makes more use of legato and smooth playing. thats why mick's easier to hear. i like jim more tho, im a legato man :D and i too play metal on a custom fender.
liveforeveroasis shit head XD why make this so big just leave people do there stuff right,like i bet you got no girl friend.and if you did go play with here and less with youtube....
No i actually dont mind slipknot, and think the whole wearing masks is a cool gimick. But when you buy a slipknot mask so you can sit at home and pretend your in the band, thats something a kid would do.
Since attemting to personalize with idols is a normal thing....
I have 3 Jumpsuits....1 Jacket.....and 3 Masks...
Wich doesnt mean I pretend to be in my Idol band...no its just for having such merchandize....To wear that mask just shows that you are a fan of Jim Root in this case....I personaly wear those jackets normaly and Jumpsuits when I go on a Maggot March for example...
don't get me wrong my opinion is that every musician must have a own attitude and don't copy form another don't get me wrong Jim is to my favorite guitarist but i'm not copy him don't be mad at me it's just an opinion
lol what a faggot... i mean maggot, as they call these sad fans of a shithole band who cries all the time in their songs.. listen to some real metal kids and get off the booster seat.
the difference is what the body is made of and the double coiled E-81/E-85 EMG Humbuckers (THERE FREE FUCKING ADVERTISEMENT NOW SHOWER ME WITH FREE PRODUCTS) plus instead of having 22 frets like most teles i believe it has 23
ACTUALLY, a normal tele, they say, has too much "twang". Also, yes, it just has single coils. A Jim Root tele has EMG 81 at the bridge, EMG 60 at the neck, single volume, three way toggle, and all black hardware. Honestly, my standard tele sounds just fine to me. U can recreate a Jim root tele for less, but i think it's just the name that matters to others. Check out my "Before I Forget" cover.
Things I know about you 1. Your reading my comment 2. Now your saying/thinking thats a stupid fact. 4. You didnt notice that i skipped 3. 5. Your checking it now. 6. Your smiling. 7. Your still reading my comment. 8. You know all you have read is true. 10. You didnt notice that i skipped 9. 11. Your checking it now. 12. You didnt notice there are only 10 facts Copy and paste to 3 videos tomorrow will be your best day ever!
really thick strings, it increases tension way loads in standard tuned so when its in that tuning, it'll be the same as ur usual guitar with 9's. also this guitar is a fixed bridge so it has more sustain etc. its all about sustain and action tbh, get some uber thick strings lower the action a bit but not too much and just experiment.
thats was actually a fuckin badass cover! road runner records fuckin suck!!! they were bitching too much so youyube had to take alot of slipknot shit off of youtube. fuckin cunts.
