  • Our latest My Garage episode brings us to the Sunshine State where we visit Jim Root. Jim needs no introduction as a guitarist. With a legendary career with Slipknot and a best-selling signature guitar bearing his name, he’s solidified his place in music history.
    Off stage, he’s developed an affinity for high-horsepower vehicles. Alongside racks and racks of guitars, his garage is adorned with period-correct Mopars and a different Harley-Davidson for nearly every occasion.
    Like his eclectic motorcycle collection, Jim’s guitars are set up in a way that suits his style and upsets purists. But, with a Grammy and multiple Platinum records on his shelf, it’s clear that Jim doesn’t need to follow convention.

    Jim is definitely one of my all time favorite guitar players, and also inspired me as a guitar player. The first time I saw Slipknot I was front row literally right in front of Jim. I recently bought one of his personally owned Fender Jazzmasters from Wild West Guitars. Back when he sold some of his collection to that shop. Incredibly, Jim himself actually wrote back to me on instagram and we had a nice convo about that guitar and cars too. Really hope I get to meet him one day he seems like such an awesome dude. Such a cool video and great to finally see what his garage and some of his collection!

Chill personality, no ego. Even inspired me to learn guitar as well. When I saw them in 99 he was playing janky charvels and I think hes signed by them now. Pretty cool to see his career progress over the years.
