FenderJim RootStratocaster
Flat Black EverTune AfterMarket Upgrade
This guitar sounds as mean as it looks.
The Fender Jim Root Stratocaster EverTune AfterMarket Upgrade has all the features that the Slipknot and Stone Sour guitarist needs for his brand of ultra-heavy music, with the added benefits of the EverTune bridge.
The mahogany body—a real departure from traditional Strat designs—produces huge, thick tones, and the active EMG humbuckers deliver massive output and quiet operation, for high-gain power chords and screaming harmonic squeals. The Jim Root Strat sports a compound radius (12" to 16") on the ebony-on-maple neck, giving you the lowest possible action without fretting out.
The satin lacquer finish and sparse controls make for a brutal, no-nonsense metal machine. What really sets this guitar apart, however, is the EverTune AfterMarket Upgrade. It will not only not go out of tune, but it will also intonate all the way up the neck, and no matter how low you tune, even the most vicious chugs will remain perfectly tight and focused.
Available exclusively via our online shop, the Fender Jim Root Stratocaster EverTune AfterMarket Upgrade is stark, mean, and brutal.

Please use our String Tension Gauge Calculator for your desired tuning and string gauges to verify the correct SADDLE TYPE (STANDARD, HIGH or LOW) is selected for each string.
View explanation of all options here: Saddle Tension Selection / Bridge Rebuild Options (?)
Should the bridge need custom high or low tension saddle modules for certain strings -- or if you want different color option for the faceplate or any saddles -- we charge one $30 fee to swap them out at build time instead of $50 per saddle module when buying them separately.
