Best signature lineup Fender ever made for a really gentle guy like Jim.

Since my son was 5, I’ve been telling him you can hear words/emotions/a story from guitars. Jim is one of those guys that can make a guitar talk… ❤️ him and ❤️ Slipknot

Love it when Matt Sweeney is doing the interviews. Dude seems chill.

Jim is by far one of my favorite guitarists ever, and definitely one of my main heroes. Even though I'm not a huge fan of active pickups, or the minimalism of just having one single knob, the looks/aesthetics of this guitar model completely sold me, it's just a too big turn on. I really wish that Fender/Squier comes up with a HH Jazzmaster back in the line for 2021, (like you did for the Modern Player Series) with looks similar to these (maybe a regular C chape 9.5" radius, but keep the block inlays, some cheaper wood for the body like Basswood, and I don't even mind if you change the type of bridge, or the humbuckers).

I am kids at home. Thank you for always keeping me in mind, Matt.

Oh my gosh, this man is my guitar idol. He's the only reason I even picked the guitar back up.

Never seen such beautiful studio room before...+ the music that Jim does...

The least jazzmaster like jazzmaster in existence, and yet that’s what makes it so amazing. Fender letting him take their design this far out is dope

Jim Root é o tio que todos querem ter, esse cara é muito humilde; além de tocar pra caralho, ele e o Mick Thonsom. Desejo todo sucesso do mundo 🇧🇷🔥🤘🏻🇧🇷🔥

I love how he likes a jazz guitar feel for playing heavy stuff with it too. He has a cool style for sure

Incrível que ele mesmo consegue promover o próprio modelo, no fim o Jim nos convence que não existe outro modelo de guitarra mais "cool" do que a Jazzmaster, sendo uma experiência única e transcendental.
