EMG has the best customer service in the industry, thank you to Alison at EMG for helping me complete my dream tele I’ve been piecing together for years… can’t wait to add this set to my collection
M Colby it's not like isolated solo tracks are ideal either. At least listening to the album gives a better sense of how they'll sound in an actual band setting.
noskilz04 I have his signature tele and black jazzmaster. The tele’s a great Instrument but the Jazzmaster I can not put it down. Its so Comfortable to play and just sounds awesome. Maybe because it’s a big chunk of mahogany. Something is special about them.
He looks more intimidating with his mask off. Lol. I've been a long time Slipknot fan. My favorite guy in the band is the one with the hood on. I think his name is Sid.
I really like how those pickups sound, but I would like to be able to buy bridge pickup only, cause guitar I'd like to put Daemonum in only has one pickup, but those pickups are not sold separately...
Jim you called my house once when you were playing in the UK at ozzfest in 1999 you left a message on my answer machine asking my girlfriend (KAREN) if she wanted to come and party with you and the rest of the band.. I kept that message for over 10 years.. No fucker ever believed me lol.
We got B-roll footage of miked cabinets, but y'all couldn't demo the pickups through them? You heard more out of his unplugged Jazzmaster than the pickups themselves.
For those who would like to hear them check this video out th-cam.com/video/pJJXuGftOSg/w-d-xo.html Jim talks about his signature guitar here and plays it in the meantime and yes, this guitar will have Daemonum set in it :)
So, they have the look of classic/ passive pickups, however still provide the same tone and/ or output of active pickups? Please correct me if I am wrong.
Birdie millan, I have definitely grown interest in the 57/66s’ upon studying Andy James. I will have to be sure to seek those out in hopes to find a new favorite tone. Happy New Year.
Wtf I wanted to hear these things already heard this pickup story from a past interview n how mick gave him his first pair of active not a fan of the emg sound cut too much mids and am a passive player so this intrigued me, but want to hear the Fuckn things play please
He keeps talking about the guitars and pick up but I’ve never heard him play anything, Does he actually play the guitar he keeps talking about them,I suppose it’s because he’s getting them free
Wesley Warren I’m not digging the inlays either. But I do like the Zebra look. And they will look badass in my black Jim Root Jazzmaster. What’s cool about EMGs is there’s no soldering involved now. You just plug them i like a toaster. So you can change the pickups around every time you restring you’re guitar if you wanted. Variety is the spice.
Nimitz 17 I have some emgs I get that appeal because I hate wiring. I just like covered pickups. Nothing looks better imo. I wish I could afford a Jim root guitar. I wish I could play one first tho. Guitar stores suck these days and only have the most basic things. I’ve wanted a Jim root tele for like 10 years now it’s crazy.
Wesley Warren I have the Jim Root Tele too. I ordered both online. Got the JM off Reverb, And the Tele new from Sweetwater. You can try them out that way. If you don’t like them you can send them back. But I knew I’d be keeping them lol I’m not to picky and been playing fenders my whole life.
Sooo... a 5 min video about new pickups, but no audio of what they sound like? That's an interesting sales approach
Scrubbed through the thing looking for some actual playing. What the hell?!
Pull up the new slipknot record
There is sound in 02:01 :D
You can probably go to the emg website
His new Guitar is being announced at winter Namm so there will probably be a demo vid soon
I love the fact that Mick was the one who got Jim into EMGs. Best metal guitar partnership in history 🤟🤟
Yeah, what a great story, back then when Jim couldn't even afford a set!!
"you know"
Jim Root - 2020
LosExilados you know
Just read this comment and Jim said "you know"
EMG has the best customer service in the industry, thank you to Alison at EMG for helping me complete my dream tele I’ve been piecing together for years… can’t wait to add this set to my collection
It would be so awesome if Jim makes a solo instrumental album that include all the styles he listens to
Meh
I’m entirely convinced Jim’s first words were “You Know?”
Jim root is one of my favorite and huge inspiration for playing guitar. I just wish I had money to buy his guitars.
Make one
Bruh, when you hear "~20 years ago" and now realised that was late 90s early 2000s...damn i feel old now
You know
You couldn't have gotten five to ten minutes of him playing through them?
@Just Some guy if it is, why not put that after the interview or weave it in so people can actually hear them?
Just hear we are not your kind, he uses them on the record
@@domfuc8547 my man that's a polished and produced full band playing in an album. It's far from ideal for getting a sense of how the pickups sound
M Colby and a compressed low quality TH-cam video through your headphones is gonna give you a better sound?
M Colby it's not like isolated solo tracks are ideal either. At least listening to the album gives a better sense of how they'll sound in an actual band setting.
The signature set was a long time coming dude congrats
Damn ! My Jim Root Teles are getting upgraded !
Phil K wow didn’t know! Explain more plz.
Also I was at the shop and saw his Strat and it felt different lol.
Jim's the coolest guy ever!can't wait to hear these EMG's in full Jan 18th Glasgow Hydro✌🤘🏴
I'm going to
TJ KNOT Manchester for me, Thursday!
How well did this comment age?
@@joesified very well.Jim's sound was amazing.the gig was ruined only by the fact that Corey can no longer sing live anymore
Wow, he even switched out the MAIN Tele
The OG tele
He said he likes how much more comfortable and balanced the jazz master body is
@@LouSassles yeah but his fav is the tele
noskilz04 I have his signature tele and black jazzmaster. The tele’s a great Instrument but the Jazzmaster I can not put it down. Its so Comfortable to play and just sounds awesome. Maybe because it’s a big chunk of mahogany. Something is special about them.
Jim Root said "You know?" for 15,784 times now in his life. And counting.
Jim “you know” Root
Playthrough?
When Jazzmaster Sandblasted lauching?
You Know!!
Its not, they've already come out and said it. The next on he releases is the one in this video.
Jim Root a.k.a. Mr you know
I do have to say, the tones on this record are fucking gnarly!
I'm so f*cking hyped about these pickups
Just put a set into my old guitar and they're awsome
Ray, where are you! ;)
Nice!
Would be awesome to listen to some samples of 81/60 and the Sig set together.
Where’s Stay Metal Ray?
stone sour needs jim for sure
yes
So, no one is going to talk about the song in the intro?
Seven Liers In Wait by The Hallow
He looks more intimidating with his mask off. Lol. I've been a long time Slipknot fan. My favorite guy in the band is the one with the hood on. I think his name is Sid.
The songs name is Seven Liers in Wait by The Hallow
Your a rythm Beast!!! Congratulations

Nonton diluar ya pasti
I really like how those pickups sound, but I would like to be able to buy bridge pickup only, cause guitar I'd like to put Daemonum in only has one pickup, but those pickups are not sold separately...
The width and the girth....very important....you know
Do they come in a standard black open coil covers?
Yes, they come in black or zebra for 229 bucks.
Reeeeaaalllyyyyyy should try these one))
Jim you called my house once when you were playing in the UK at ozzfest in 1999 you left a message on my answer machine asking my girlfriend (KAREN) if she wanted to come and party with you and the rest of the band.. I kept that message for over 10 years.. No fucker ever believed me lol.
Hi...please can you do a video about how to wire the EMG81-60 the jim root way?(1 volume no tone)please help...thanck you
We got B-roll footage of miked cabinets, but y'all couldn't demo the pickups through them? You heard more out of his unplugged Jazzmaster than the pickups themselves.
*SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!* Do you need the f-spaced ones or regular ones for the JR hardtail strat?
Mto top
Abraços e bends
Is he gonna release that Fender with bound neck or what?
Brian J Malmsteen yes
For those who would like to hear them check this video out th-cam.com/video/pJJXuGftOSg/w-d-xo.html
Jim talks about his signature guitar here and plays it in the meantime and yes, this guitar will have Daemonum set in it :)
Shame they won't be available in red :(
so probably its just an emg 77 re named like the other emg signature sets or atleast most of them
You can listen to Daemonum set here th-cam.com/video/pJJXuGftOSg/w-d-xo.html
so....what do they sound like?
Will these be available in 7 string?
I mean...its a Squier....so? No?
Why not? Mick's signature Duncan EMTY's are available for 7 strings.
@@pistonhedd ohhh i didnt realise that! Thank you
Sam Ortiz what are you talking about lol?
Please make a 7 string version.
These sound just like 81/60. You can’t tell a difference at so much high gain anyways
Yeah that was a waste of time lol. Hey emg/root. Get some audio on these, good chance you'll sell more of em:)
Southpaw 76 he tracked the record with them. Can listen to a whole album with these pick ups
@@lancefreimann4842 Yes I have the album. But I'm more interested in what they sound like in the livingroom. I'm sure there will be a video soon.
So, they have the look of classic/ passive pickups, however still provide the same tone and/ or output of active pickups? Please correct me if I am wrong.
Hetset have same concept too
Birdie millan, I have definitely grown interest in the 57/66s’ upon studying Andy James. I will have to be sure to seek those out in hopes to find a new favorite tone. Happy New Year.
Birdie millan, that’s awesome you wear a bird mask. I just found my bird/ jester mask from Italy the other day, lol 😆
Birdie millan haha! Love it man. Keep up the good work!
still no sound demo on TH-cam
what the hell
You would think we would be able to actually hear the freaking pickups, Jim is great but I play guitars not Jim Roots.
If jim root was japanese people he will say dattebayo
EMG need help with their marketing... this is dire
Wtf I wanted to hear these things already heard this pickup story from a past interview n how mick gave him his first pair of active not a fan of the emg sound cut too much mids and am a passive player so this intrigued me, but want to hear the Fuckn things play please
or just use an overdrive
Did hear shit of a pick up .
He keeps talking about the guitars and pick up but I’ve never heard him play anything, Does he actually play the guitar he keeps talking about them,I suppose it’s because he’s getting them free
Nice name choice. Different spelling, but the numerical value of "Demonum"? In Pythagorean Numerology: 4
soundが聴きたいです❣️^ ^
marketing/video team needs to be fired. 2020 and still dont know what's important to the customers. lol
Passive ????
Live set my fucking ass. He didn't play a single note. Smh
Damn he talks as if he's bored out of he's mind 😂
he sounds like this in every interview pretty much
I wonder if Jim Root is a bandmember or a 'hired gun' a la Chris Fehn?
Chris probably has the most fun in the band.
Where is the cover ! So ugly without
I feel like my mans has made his guitars less attractive attractive lately. The inlays, trim, and uncovered pick ups just aren’t doing it for me.
Then don't buy it 🤷♂️
Ben Asslick I won’t. Lol
Wesley Warren I’m not digging the inlays either. But I do like the Zebra look. And they will look badass in my black Jim Root Jazzmaster. What’s cool about EMGs is there’s no soldering involved now.

Lots of talking and 0 playing..
