DunlopTV - Jim Root

[justishawkins]

How does he do the alien noise

[jrpg0630]

What did he mean at 5:05 when he says ' C Sharp, dropped to B' ??

[DJSumthinCool]

@jrpg0630 Standard tuning,but everything down a step and a half. Low E string dropped to B from there. So basically, drop D tuning, transposed to B.

[ScottScott12345]

Can I say fuck?

Haha, Jim's awesome.

[mexicanmaggot666]

Good homage to The Great Nigel Tufnel, Jim!

[PhoenixFlame182]

me and you share the passion for a 68 hemi dude :)

[diegorf3000]

[SuranOo]

0:00 - 0:18 James Skrillex Root

[Cyanide5151]

His rig is the most basic, down to earth system for a guy who does slipknot and stone sour shit. yet it still sound f**king epic...

[MyMrJuicy]

[Noxx93]

legend of a guy.

[Stashitquick]

[TheMrbongobongo]

@Stashitquick different preference, someone i know uses a 46

[jocastello7]

[theDeathJoy]

Hi.

[holdenboi666]

[CHRIStheBASStard]

[mexicanmaggot666]

Life is better when you "Nigel Tufnel" shit out.

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

This was the greatest video I have ever watched ever

[FTWsuigetsu1]

jim root is the 1st guy ive heard whos done a good british accent, most people either make it too cockney or too posh

[shocker7142]

if he leaves that pedal on stage sid will take a piss on it or clown will throw a keg or steal pipe at it 

[yungbubbabush]

brian is a godd interviewer. He can match the intensity of the players hes interviewing

[dan95brantner]

im pretty sure that 40,000 of the 89,736 views are by me. xD

[MauMaggott]

@dan95brantner or by me!! xD i want jim's guitar tone!

[mexicanmaggot666]

@dan95brantner Don't think so, I beat you up to 43,239 :3

[GermanJimRoot]

I wanna this Guitar Eq..

[xpitviperx]

Jim Root is one of my favorite guitarists. The fact that he's a mopar guy definitely put him even higher on my list.

[heavymetalthunda2]

why does he hit everytihng with his fist balled up?

guess nobody can really answer that

and

why does he always have that thing on his fingers?

[fadeout012]

@heavymetalthunda2 that is a hair tie, used to wear one on my hand all the time when I had my long hair

[heavymetalthunda2]

@fadeout012

that makes sense.....

maybe that explains why kirk hammet does the same thing... (really long hair)

[theNINE6661]

@heavymetalthunda2 its his hair band

[maggot6639]

@heavymetalthunda2 Jim does it because he feels awkward going to places buying hair ties, i forgot what interview he said it in lol

[heavymetalthunda2]

0:01- 0:16

he looks like sid

turn something... press something...... makes a weird ass sound that has like... a tremolo type effect

[grillo1985]

Come on JIm comeback to Slipknot fuck everybody else!!!

[DONTCKLICKMYNAME]

@grillo1985 He never left Slipknot...

[grillo1985]

@DONTCKLICKMYNAME yeah i know well this, but you know what's happening between slipknot and stone sour....Corey taylor wants to leave slipknot to play something commercial with stone sour... and Jim is always with him...

[jimbev4]

so wht was that pedal that sounded like a UFO

[khjr1]

@jimbev4 mxr carbon copy delay

[KelsieRichardson]

He's amazing,brilliant and sexy! ;)

[deadman316]

[WASD9ox]

@deadman316 at the end of it

Jim Dunlop 11-15-20p-36-42-56

[blisterless]

[iamthereandyou]

@blisterless he plays a part of the song sic

[blisterless]

@iamthereandyou that's what thought

[103964988]

5:04 anyone else notice that sound? in the stone sour video for the uproar tour, that sound comes on again. Must be Jim's ringtone... ha ha just sayin

[CobraGTXNoS]

I am a Mopar guy too.

[Brie830]

"That's why, Tarantino, you're a fuck for wrecking those cars in those movies" :D. I had to LOL at this because he sounds just like my bf. When I went to see Death Proof with my bf, he was like "this is the one time I wish Tarantno would actually use CG. you DON'T fuck with a '68 Charger". Boys and their cars :p

[CriZiS22F]

Anyone know the brand of cable he use between each pedal

[xJayrod]

"Carbon copy, we're fuckin around w/a carbon copy, can I say fuck?" Haha, Jim's so chill.

[juanmanueleq09]

I would like to be his son!

[jdogg288]

jim and mick are nice but when you piss them off you better pray to god that they don't clobber you to death...then death is like oh shit...

[04GUITARPLAYER04]

if you look closely he has a gibson flying v in his guitar rack

[eramir228]

@04GUITARPLAYER04 Yes he sometime used a Gibson V in Stone Sour

[tokman20]

@04GUITARPLAYER04 he used it when he was with stonesour this year at sydney soundwave :D

[aznjt]

Jim is one cool mother!

[AlternativeTaco]

[themodernguitarist]

[karanghostdesai99]

@MrGresK Dunlop Jazz III XL

[mcdonaldskilledme123]

i fucking love Jim Root!

[DimeBagDarrelForever]

fuucckk yeah MOPAR !!!! totally agree that the dukes of hazzard movies are just a waste of thousands of beautiful chargers! if i was to go with a roadrunner though it would be a '71 for sure. MOPAR AND METAL RUUULLLEESSS!!!! 

[96lolstar]

He changes his pickup switcher as he does nothing

[elwulfo666]

he seems to be on coffee or something xD

[16coreprocessor23]

whats the song in the beggining? like the one playing at 1.16? i love it!

[SpearmintSixString]

@16coreprocessor23 Made of scars - stone sour :D

[16coreprocessor23]

@SpearmintSixString thank u!

[96lolstar]

What is that pedal he uses in the start?

[reQuiem249]

@96lolstar MXR Carbon Copy, analog delay. Major want on this.

[ikdsjOFFICIAL]

so great deep :D

[hype236]

doesn anyone know if i should use .011 gauge strings or .012 gauge strings. i wanna be able to play from standard to drop b and everything in between.

[MrTshoff]

@hype236 ernie ball skinny top hevay bottoms. 10-52 gauge. ive used from e standard to a retarded moment in drop g lol. but yea they work for everything

[hype236]

@MrTshoff thanks

[RideTheLightning1995]

@MrTshoff same ! standard tuning to G, theyre the perfect for any tuning

[Sean1547]

@hype236 i use 11-49s for drop B, but if you wanna do drop A as well, the go for the 12s

[slipknotmrocksmysock]

@Sean1547 11-49's? are u serious dude??! u must not be very educated about string tension for drop tunnings. y the strings u use might be ok or feel good to u u need atleast a 11-54 and up for drop B and A other wise your strings will be like rubber bands there is well oh no there not like on my guitar this gauge works just fine it's plain physics bro. not trying to rip on u or anything rock on \m/

[Sean1547]

@slipknotmrocksmysock My MTM2 came with 11-49s, and ive been using them since, there is very little difference between 11-49, and 11-54 for drop b, i have used both

[slipknotmrocksmysock]

@Sean1547 dude thats like 3 gauges difference i do guitar teching man ...... kids

[TheNohcim]

Did he make that sound in the beginning with the carbon copy?

[reQuiem249]

@TheNohcim yeah. he also makes that sound before the breakdown in stone sours "let's be honest".

[TheNohcim]

@reQuiem249 ok thanks

[MeXiCaNrEVa7x]

why does he always have a little band on his fingers?

[Gothman]

@MeXiCaNrEVa7x he needs a place to keep his hair band

[hype236]

@MeXiCaNrEVa7x i tried that a couple time. what i found out is it keeps your fingers together easier so yur fingers dont touch your strings when you palm mute. that what i use it for anyways.

[ntbillie]

Can I say Fuck..?! ROFL..

[kevinagain0722]

lmao, whatever da fawk u want!

[mozzadagozza]

do u think the dunlop guy gets a little bit sad when he sees other pedals on the board?

[jameschoi999]

at 5:04~5:08 ...is it just me or did anyone else check their iphone?

[homelesspimps]

alright can somebody tell me what pedal it is that is at 2:35 - 2:38 cuz i want one really bad. i looked up a tremolo pedal but thats not as intense as this, i just want something that sounds similar to that

[Cyanideish]

@homelesspimps

electro harmonix stereo pulsar nano

[SzamanBruno]

4:45 - 5:00 XD

[MaggotStar666]

[londonkol]

@MetalMakesMeEargasm

No, Jim is a much better Guitarist than Caleb or Matthew but he wasnt comparing them he was saying Jim LOOKS like one of them. And I love both bands. People have a different taste to you. Get Over It.

[MetalMakesMeEargasm]

[synystergates96]

Joker at 0:36

[godlikecharacta]

I always though Jim was good at leads and Mick at rhythm as far as slipknot goes

[XDirkLanceX]

what does he have on his fingers? is it just a hair band or somethin?

[vainparasite]

@XDirkLanceX I dunno but he wears it on nearly every vid ive seen of him.

[vainparasite]

@XDirkLanceX Jim Root quote

"It's a hair tie. That's it. Just a place to keep it so I don't lose it. When my hair grows out I can't stop frippin with it... Tying it up... let it down and so on.

So I keep it on those fingers out of habit and forget it's there. No one probably noticed it with Slipknot because my hair was short for every record cycle with the exception of the last part of the Subliminal tour...".

[mugagilimugagili]

when he was messin with the maggots what was the first riff? like what song

[yungbubbabush]

[iclone18476]

He is a tall notherfucker
