Designed by Slipknot guitarist Jim Root in collaboration with Fender, the Jim Root Telecaster delivers heavy, detuned nu-metal tone with a stark, utilitarian look. Its stripped-back design is built for a powerful sound and heavy playing style.
- Mahogany body with gloss Shoreline Gold finish
- Ebony fingerboard with 12" radius and 22 jumbo frets; the relatively flat radius is well suited to string bending without fretting out
- EMG® 60 neck and EMG® 81 bridge active humbucking pickups
- Single volume control and three-way pickup switch
- Hardtail bridge with strings-through-body construction
- Locking tuners for increased tuning stability and faster, easier string changes than with conventional tuners
- Black hardware, including the bridge, control knob, bridge pickup bezel, tuners and strap buttons
