You can tell how passionate Jim is about guitars; the way he looks at them before closing the case, like a father closing the bedroom door saying goodnight to his children.
I wish I was rich enough to say "Oh I forgot about this guitar!" 😂
+Abraham Owen Or to buy a custom shop Gibson and not open the box...
+Abraham Owen Me too, but I bought his signature lunch box amp and love it lol. What a great little amp.
hahaha!
haha I'm far from rich, but i've said it a few times. Usually means it's time to sell some stuff.
Right the f on,dude.
Jim's comic book nerd impression gets me everytime lol
+TheMagicalManatee He actually is pretty nerdy, have you seen his Storm Trooper tattoo?
It was a cover-up actually, for his Stone Sour tattoo that he had regretted once he got kicked out of the band.
where did you get that from, he wasnt kicked out he left. Hes still in slipknot lol just not in SS
jimroot2988 XD
@@thefizipop Stone Sour wikipedia page: "it was later revealed that he was fired from the band due to musical differences. He claimed that the band wanted to focus on "radio play and money," in which Root fought against, and that led to a split."
Jim Root wikipedia page: "On 17 May 2014, Stone Sour released an official statement saying that Root was no longer a member of the band. Moments before their statement, Root told a fan on Instagram of his departure, explaining: Not my decision. Not happy about it."
Do some research before stating something as "fact"
I've literally watched this video 15 times still not bored of it
stuart clarke haha me too. greetings from germany
Yeah. Me too. it's weird how you can rewatch it even though you know exactly what's going to happen.
Seeing how this is a smaller part of his collection, I want to see his collection in Iowa
No doubt his prototype tele is in that collection.
saame
No Jim Root I don't know
ya know?
@@KingTaeChannel. no
Do you know??
Know’m sayin?
You should know
This comment is so underrated 😂
Cried on the inside a little bit when I saw that poor broken guitar.
Fucking Corey 😂
What a dick
I played louder than ever today!
Love Jims voice. Could listen to him forever
Imagine somebody breaks in while he's on tour and tries to steal one of the guitars get home and it's broken
That's why if I were planning a break in while Jim was out of town I would plan a bigger heist than 1 guitar. I'm going in with a friend so we'd be able to get multiple.
+McGangBang Im your friend.
Christian Landmann LET'S DO THIS!!!!! Lmfao.
Imagine Jim's reaction if he comes home and the box is opened
When are you gon plan it? 😂
He's a dude I would love to hang out for a weekend with haha
***** That's so awesome!! I met him with SS and he was just the nicest laid back guy ever.
You're really lucky haha
***** So you remember the store a lot like Best Buy called Circuit City that closed awhile back? Jim is a huge car collector and before that chain of stores closed he came down to where I live (St. Louis, MO) to look at the deals that they were having on car speakers, radios, etc, and I noticed him. I was so damn nervous lol I go uhm... are you Jim Root? He puts his finger over his mouth and was like shhh I am but don't tell anyone. Even if he had said that it wasn't him his tattoos were a dead give away! I found the Stone Sour Come Whatever May album, bought it, and he signed it for me. Too bad that it was stolen though from an ex friend. That's why they are a ex friend now...
Juan José Fonseca Godoy fuck you man, I'm james lil bro!!!
+Megan Rose how'd u find him in the parking lot? haha
Denver Dubtle hahahah you killed me😂😂😂 btw I find him very funny too
"There is just random guitars." then pulss 66 jazzmaster
he is an amazing musician but i have so much more respect for him for loving the instruments as much as he does and that dudes picture with the guitar is awesome... love it !
Jim Root is such a cool guy. He's just such a normal, down to earth dude. Love this guy.
6:20 'A LITTLE bit nerd'.
Lol, who's he kiddin? Jim is probably the biggest guitar nerd alive.
His nerdy lisp he had though.
bonamassa takes the cake for the biggest guitar nerd
Haassan1 Misha Mansoor is a huge gear nerd
Haassan1 Him and john 5
Kirk Hammett crushes bonamassa
Wish I could forget I had guitars
I like Jim, I think he has created a good new look for fender. They needed to step in that direction for a while and this was the right man for the job.
I agree, awesome guitars, not a huge fan of single coils myself and I personally hate Strats. But, since Jim brought out his signature models and such Fender released their Black Top range, which are basically rock and metal guitars but in Fender packages. Just bought an american standard telecaster that has a hardtail and twin humbuckers, very cool guitar!
Alex Chapman I agree to a huge extent. He's given Fender a more modern touch, especially at the time when Fender was known for making guitars for more traditional guitarists, like from the 60s. Jim Root (along with some other guys, like Chris Shiflett and Joe Trohman) have kids made Fender a bit more modern.
Awesome sauce
Great guitar hmmm
I hung out with Jim last year in L.A. He's a super cool guy. I've met a lot of rockstars and he was by far the nicest.
Jim root is such a cool guy
At 1:20 there's a guy taking a rewarding dump in the back.
Lol that's hilarious dude
+Euphoric Onion dude...
Abraham was drinking water xd my keyboard!!!
Lol 😂😂
That fender 24 fret with the dinky body is the goods. I wish I owned that one.
It's like a Flathead Showmaster, looks killer.
Wish Fender would make production models more that aren't available only through custom shop. The new Squier Contemporaries look promising, though, so we got something, I guess.
@@coffinfeeder7732 Joe you great taste in Guitars i like that one too.
I actually something similar my own
When ever i watch it, jims eyes are looking at me
i want to touch his beard . i have a theory if i touch it il be able to play half as good as him
heart shaped box And it enhances tone as well !
I thouched his beard once, and one sprouted on my face 2 nights later. Ive tried to shave it off a thousand times, but it just returns when I wake up
@@danvondrasek the curse of the Jim Root beard haunts ye matey, till death do yas part
@@thepenguimoose562 it's now 2021, and I still cant get rid of it...
Love Jim Root. He definitely is an awesome dude.
that story about the photo he got with that 50's Gibson ES is so awesome. the fact that he keeps that value to it makes him an even more awesome guitarist in my opinion
drinking game, take a shot every time him says "ya know"
I don't think anyone's liver would exist after that
RIP the poor man who does that challenge
woke up in ER
11 you knows
the next level would be drinking to an interview of uhm..ya know..the undertaker
1:25 I wish that I had so many guitars that I would forget I had one lol
He has such a soothing voice and accent...
It would be the coolest thing ever to just spend an afternoon hanging out at Jim's and checking out all his guitars
I couldn't stop laughing at the Millennium Falcon joke at the end.
Much respect to Jim for seeing the "value" in the man's picture with the guitar, very cool!!
That Firebird wants out! I can hear it yelling, "Pleeeeease play me..." Fucking play it, open the gd box!
When he geeked out about the Star Wars bit Hahahaha
funny how he kept the guitar in the box for collectors vaule ahah
i could watch jim talk about guitars all day
He actually still has that Firebird in the box. They need to do a part 2
"This guitar is pretty amazing and it's in a good place" What an awesome guy
Jim is awesome dude who ever gets his collection when he goes will be one happy camper bud
i love the way he is explainning us about their guitars passionately!!!!
awesome video! Jim is a pretty funny guy too.
Really want that Fender Dinky custom shop.
"Inside here is a Silverburst firebird 5 and ive never opened the box" nice problems to have when you're rich af.
Love Jim, such a good guy!
that 66 Jazzmaster is a holy grail guitar, such a beautiful guitar
Jim seems like a really nice, cool, down to earth kinda guy. I'd LOVE to meet him.
I have no idea of guitars, have no clue what he's talking about with all those details, but his passion for these instruments and the sheer joy she has talking about them makes me come back to watch it again
Jim's taste in guitars is on point!
I love Jim's sigs. Mahogany body, humbuckers, ebony fretboard, simple control layout. I wish I could get one.
Lol I laughed so hard at the nerd voice x)
He really seems like a cool dude who just loves guitars.
This is great ASMR
I like to play this drinking game where I just watch a bunch of Jim Root videos and every time he says "you know" or "you know what I mean" I take a shot
Jim is such a guitar nerd. I love it.
Jim Root and John 5 playing tellies in metal. Epic.
I think it’s cool that he kept the original owner’s picture in the ES case. Solid nod to the guy that passed away.
All these years later after rewatching this video, I always wonder if Jim ever did open that Silverburst Firebird yet.
Love Jim, by far one of my favorite musicians
great video. he knows his guitars and has an excellent collection. he inspired me to clean up my guitar room today.
8 years later Jim.... close enough to rip it open an show us!!!!!!
Make a part 2! I want to see the firebird! :3
I freaking love Jim Root. Dudes just a trip
goddamit corey lol breaking shit for no reason hahahahaha
This video never gets old
Great Jim Root video TotalGuitar!
Man he’s got top of line guitars that he can just say “mehhh this was a custom shop but it’s old” that blows my mind
Jim is a REAL ONE💯 #4
Haha that sounded so much like Seth greens robot chicken nerd! :D
yea he did xD
That ES-330, tho.
He's too cool
was I the only one who caught the "hassan chop" reference? look it up..
Good Daffy episode.....Duck!....You have desecrated the spirit of the lamp! Prepare to face the consequence ! Looks like Jim, you and a few others practiced guitar whilst watching Looney Tunes. 🤣
@@johnstitt2615 "Consequences, Schmosequences! As long as I'm rich!"
That's hard that he kept the pic with the guitar and said it's in a good place. Jim root was my idol back in the day this is dope to see
I love this guy :) my best guitarist ever
collection goals
That last Gibson at the end had me sayin ``open the friggin box already, play it thats what its for!``
5 more years to open that Gibson Jim
leave it in the box Jim!!!!!!!! awesome stuff
6:23 jim root goin' with the boogie2988 voice is frickin hilarious 😂😂
I love it when he opens up the 1966 Jazzmaster case and you hear the camera guy say "Oh shit!"
such a guitar nerd! love it
The look in his eyes when he said "this is one that Corey broke for me". Fuck he looked like he was gonna kill someone
Inspiring and down to earth dude
jim its so well articulate !!!!
Awesome guitarist!
I love Jim
Can we please get a 2? We need to see more of his collection!!!!!
And my wife thinks I have way too many guitars. Honey!!!! come here look at this guy. LOL
HOLY MOTHER! that is a lot of guitars
These are in a good place!
Jim has so many fucking guitars
Ross Gordon yeah Jason seems like he'd have an entire warehouse full
At last! A retro Jazzmaster that we're allowed to look at! :D
Not a huge slipknot fan but this guy has impeccable taste in guitars
I wish I was rich enough to where I could just buy shit and never open it.
Haha! no shit, right?
I love the gear heads. Jim seems like a cool guy and I feel we would get along.. Because I too wish I had the Han Solo Millinium Falcon still in the box..
one this for sure
jim definitely values his guitars as if they were his children
Jim's guitar room goes to eleven beyond Nigel Tufnel of Spinal Tap's guitar room. Nigel had the unplayed Fender with the ole price tager still on it, but Jim's is still in the box. Gibson silverburst Firebird Five:

The fucking paradise the best guitars in the hands of the best guitarist
It’s been over 10 years Jim, let’s open that Gibson!
Seems to be awesome just to be around him.
God, I love Jim!!!!!!

I feel like I can relate to Jim the most out of Slipknot.
