Foreboding, dark, virtually barren, the Fender Artist Jim Root Jazzmaster is a perfect reflection of the guitarist's punishing, driven approach to crafting the tonal onslaught that is the band Slipknot. Featuring a black satin lacquer finish, single three-way pickup switch and volume knob, EMG 60 (neck) and 81 (bridge) Active humbucking pickups, as well as a maple neck with "C" profile and compoun-radius ebony fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets and no inlays, this guitar is only what you need to destroy everything and everyone, and nothing more. Forever. Until death.
Founded by Leo Fender in 1938 as Fender's Radio Service, what is now the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation began making electric guitars and amplifiers in 1945. The rest, as they say, is history. Creator of the world's first mass-produced, and by far most popular, solid-bodied electric, Fender is now the world's leading guitar manufacturer.
Developed hand-in-hand with some of the biggest artists of yesterday and today, the Fender Artist Series is a collaborative line of signature models incorporating hand-selected tonewoods and custom appointments and specs, voiced to specific tones and playing styles by our master builders and the artists themselves. Stratocasters, Telecasters, Jaguars, Jazzmasters, and Jazz, Precision, and Jaguar basses take on new life with the help of some of music's most revered icons.
