It’s funny because Jim recently bought a Solar.
Really? Maybe Ola send him free lol
@@marcotaproot nah he bought his own
@@batzz3177 where u see it? Maybe they just gift each other
@@marcotaproot they actually both bought each other’s signature guitar. What’s weird is that it was not planned, just kind of happened
@@87BruceH 90 percent sure though Ola and him would get along. Jim seems like a kind and neat dude. He want to make one of his lines in Mexico so kids could buy a good guitar for a reasonable price and not have to play crap to start with. Gained a lot more respect after that. Long live the knot!🤘
Jim play solar guitar, ola play jim guitar...
My day is perfect
Jim played a Solar guitar ? When ?
@@Yats6417 On his ig. He bought a white one
@@TheTillhammer Sick !!!! [(sic)]
@@TheTillhammer I thought it was silver? 🤔
@@TheTillhammer *Silver. 🤘🏼
I really want a Jim Root Jazzmaster.
Do it!
Go for it 👍
Haha wonderful, Ryan! 😃
it is my one of favorite guitars i found a used one a couple years ago and never looked back.
Omg me too
Damn, that Psychosocial intro tone was spot on
Was that at 0:23 - seconds ? That was Bad ass either way !
i honestly think it's even better than on the actual song, the low end is much tighter.
@@bcz_akos sorry but what's low end means?
@@alessandro9740 the bass sound sounds tighter meaning it doesn’t sound muddy or slurred up it’s a more clear sound.
@@alexduffalo4353 how about high end?
is it means its too muddy?
Nothing is as comfortable than playing a Strat, unfortunately not all of them sound good for metal. This one needs to be a permanent in the Fender line.
Agreed man. I’d definitely grab it if I ever saw it in my local guitar store
Agreed, I'm using a HSS which is pretty great but it would be great to have more choice.
Single-coils can sound thick as hell when going into a loud, non-M/V amp.
The problem is sometimes a bridge single-coil doesn't sound so awesome when going through a bunch of little 12AX7's cascaded into one another.
@@sebastianhood-powell9477 Strats are great, pickguard swap and you can stick anything in them. I put two humbucker EMG's in my wife's strat that had three single coils before.
From my experience with Strats, they all may look the same but they each sound different. My neighbor collects them. He has the Root model and it’s my favorite.
Im thinking of getting the jazzmaster so this is perfect timing
you realy should man both versions are really amazing guitars i regret selling mine
I have one, best guitar I've owned.
I have the white one and it’s for sure my favorite and the one I always end picking up when playing.
I owned the Jim Root tele for a hot minute. Sent it back to Sweetwater because of a blemish in the ebony board that I just couldn't get over, HOWEVER, that guitar played like a dream and sounded killer! Had it in Drop C with heavy top slinky bottoms and was amazing. I ended getting a Charvel so cal style 2 in the long run, but I'll probably get another JR tele in the near future.
@@tenispirata the white one is so awesome looking. I love my flat black but the white is on my bucket list to own
I remember wayyyyy back when Ola was demoing the MTM2; took 10 years to get to Jim's guitar
That case looks like something Dracula would sleep in.
@clownwithagun you got it
Imagine him working on the slipknot new album and jus starts adding random swedish death metal riffs
You do know Slipknot's single biggest influence is death metal, right?
@@kampfkustomer2343 There’s a big fuckin’ difference between Death Metal and Swedish Death Metal.
@@ricksterdrummer2170 name them lol
Oh yeah - no crossover between those scenes at all, entirely exclusive 🙄
@@kampfkustomer2343 the HM-2 being the only pedal you're allowed to use haha
Death metal? Slipknot? IoI 🤦🏼♀️
2:47 SICK GROWL OLA! You should do more vocal stuff!!
jim and dave mustaine got me playing guitar
Kirk Hammett made want to start play, but Synyster Gates and Dave Mustaine motivate me to keep playing it!
Ive never heard someone say jim inspired them to play, thats awesome. Hes definitely underrated
Mick Thomson, hetfield, Kirk, got me into guitar playing.
@@veenoir1991 he's one of my big inspirations! Made me fall in love with teles!
Hammett is always a big part of many players, also for me; Marten Hagstrom, Fredrik Thordendal, Vanhalen, John Mayer, Ernie Isley, Jimi Hendrix..
Whoa, that's some tone. When you started playing I legit thought it was the actual song I was listening too!
Ola, everything about this Rig suits your style. Especially that guitar
I’d love to see Ola testing out stereotypical 80s gear like Crate’s Blue Voodoo or something similar and trying to get a good modern sound out of it.
This is an amazing idea
Everything about that guitar is Badass!
The phsycosocial in the beginning was sick Ola! Love that song
Love that guitar and Jim's taste in guitars and amps!!!
2:20 and he said like: yeah you know
You know, that’s just Jim haha
This video started kicking the door, awesome guitar sound!
The variety of styles in the riffs are great. Gives you an idea
Got mine in 2010 when it released for 8100kr (around 1000$) and still have it. One of the best guitars i have played!
Cool tone man ! This is a very mean strat !
Been waiting to see this guitar demo, looks so nice! Stealth Fender Strat!
I love Jim and I love Ola. Couldn't have asked for a better video.
isn't Jim Root just the coolest man on earth!
fuck yes
yes
Yes
I love mine... such a sick looking and playing guitar! and it will look even more awesome as it ages!
I love it !!! i want it !!! it's a incredible strat for use ! thanks for the video Ola !
I haven’t been here in over a year... Ola in 4K and playing Jimbo’a strat, fantastic.
that tone is on point . made we play some slipknot riffs
He should’ve tuned it drop B instead, he’s playing a lot of riffs that are in drop b in drop a so it sounds off. Still sounds kick ass though.
Sometimes I forget how wicked badass Ola is when he actually plays. .
Just an absolutely beautiful guitar, thanks for the review!
That guitar is absolutely insane! ❤️
One of my favorite guitarists' guitar's demo on my birthday, thank you Ola!
Happy Birthday 🤘🎶🍻
@@princessrose1698 Thank you very much!
HaPpY BiRtHdAy MeHmEt :)
Happy birthday mate 😊 have a good one
Happy birthday brochacho!!!
Lovely guitar. Would love to play one some day
Awesome sound again. Ola you do sound great with EMGs 😊
Ola played a guitar I actually own! LOL But for real, this axe kicks ass. I started with a Squire Strat, worked my way to a MIM HSS Strat, and finally got this one last year. All I ever wanted was some EMGs on a Strat and this guitar far exceeded my exceptions. Definitely feels smoothers and more quality parts than my MIM Strat.
Keep up with the awesome videos!
I might be the only one but, Jim Root Tele is the one to die for ngl.
My dream guitar.
I have one of the Jazzmasters and love it! All of his guitars seriously rip. I’m hoping that Fender comes out with the sandblasted one so I can complete my collection!
Great video as always. Classik guitar with a good punch, i woud love so get one
Dude you’re a freaking awesome guitarist
You don't need friends when you have a Slipknot playlist
But you'll probably end up making some if you play it loud enough.
I have the Tele version. It’s been one of my lifetime favorite guitars. Thanks for this Ola, no how bout the YJM Strat.
Damn 614k subbies? Wasn't it only last week I was asking for a new song for the 600k mark reached? Good to see the fan base still on fire 🤘
Bra jobbat! Fint video samt riktig snygg gitarr som låter fantastisk. Det som bara fattas är talang att spela den.
2:48 that belch sounded like Seth Rogans laugh lmao
😭😭😭
I actually prefer the tele, I just like teles
Brah, that guitar and amp sounds like heaven! 🤘
Spectacular looking guitar, damn !
Hey Ola! I was thinking you should try the 24 volt mod for EMG guitars. It's a battery that is the size of a single 9 volt battery but it has 2 and half times the voltage. It really helps make the pickups sound less compressed and for people who don't like EMGs makes them more likeable. For about $25 it's a great mod that doesn't break the bank.
Filing the nut for a bigger string was a hard lesson I learned when the corner of the nut on my guitar broke off when trying to use Zakk Wylde custom strings. That sucked.
We have all done that lol
Brutal tone. I would love that one.
I absolutely love my Deadweald Audio Duality DX Overdrive Pedal!!! So glad this ones in the hands of Metal Master Ola Englund! 🤘🔥🤘
Pretty nice guitar, considering to buy one as I have no Fenders at all, incredible Mesa stack too, super decent tone, tack for video...
I've always loved Fender. Their cases are usually really good, from my experience at least.
Edit: I am not a Slipknot fan at all, but this guitar looks and sounds fantastic. Great video Ola!!
Absolutely love the green E model Solar behind you! It will be mine, oh yes
Man what a beast of a guitar, ive never heard a strat that thick and chunky!
So we not gonna mention the fact that Jim was playing a Solar on his Instagram story?
nope, most everyone is mentioning that lol
No
@@seansalo5117 Oh, didn’t notice. I was here pretty early tho so I haven’t checked the comments in awhile so my bad
Whens the JP2-C review coming?!
Hope you kick ass the one million subs soon...🤘🤘🤘
I just bought a Squire JazzMaster with active pickups! So awsome. Loved this Video ola
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TRY THE YNGWIE MALMSTEEN FENDER STRATOCASTER WITH YJM FURY PICKUPS AND SCALLOPED FRETBOARD
Seriously
@@unleashthefury111 what?
@@fredriklkken8415 I also wish he would try a YJM guitar
@@unleashthefury111 it would be really cool for him to check out that guitar because he said the single coil tone in one of his will it chug videos was interesting
@@fredriklkken8415 arent the Fury pickups stacked? Im pretty sure they will chug
That's awesome ! Jim Root is one of my guitar hero and I'm often dreaming of having one of his guitars. Btw what is the riff played at 5:02 ? It sounds killer !
Not sure, it might be something from The Haunted which he plays guitar in
it's Devil in White from Feared
@@matheusneves7364thanks man ! Killer song
@@matheusneves7364 Thank you!
That guitar is absolutely great. Also, i love the Austrian audio oc 18
Sounds brutal! 🤘
That tone, so tasty 🤤
Coffee with Vogg from decapitated.
Dude, Ola, your wall is looking killer man!
That is a awesome looking strat though I want one! Sounds so good too
Hola ola
Its so weird hearing that sound come from a strat for me.
What? It doesn't matter if it's a Fender Strat, a Solar, an LP or an RG. If you fill it with the right hardware and has a certain player play it, It doesn't matter what brand or name it has. It's gonna sound like that player playing his/her music. All the Solars, Charvels, Jacksons, Ibanez' and so on are Super-Strats, so they evolved from a Strat..... You need to listen to more music and get some knowledge about guitars if you're that stigmatic about what specific guitars can and cannot do. Jesus Christ.
Check out Obituary
@@TheKZOShow What he meant is that he's used to strats with single coils as it's the most common setup.
Don't be too harsh on him bro.
Everyone's gotta start somewhere.😊
@@TheKZOShow you've gone off on one here, I think you need to reign it in a bit. Certain guitars are known for their characteristics. If someone says they have a strat, the majority will think of 3 single coils, maple neck and an ash/alder body. This couldn't be more different than that, that is what OP is getting at. In fact, it's such a departure, it's surprising it bears the stratocaster name, imo. I agree with OP on that, and I own one of these.
Get some more sleep, or something to eat, you need to chill out.
It's weird hearing that sound at 1:48
Awesome! Sounds good
Normally I'm not too big of a fan of strats but that thing looks insanely good
whats the song that he plays at 5:09 ish

If doesn't matter if you prefer Black, trash, doom, heavy or death, we all love SLIPKNOT
What a beast!!!! All the chonks! Thx Ola you da bestest!
I own the white Telecaster and it also came in the same case. Its funny to see your reaction, I had the exact same feeling. Its a pretty basic instrument, just plug in and play but that simplicity makes it awesome and they handle awesome!
Really cool!! I love SLIPKNOT
that was SYK, brutal tone. dope shirt man
Fender Chuggin morning Ola!!🤘🎸
This is well times, was looking at reviews of these last night thinking there isn't that many demo/reviews
🤘 love this axe awesome demo
Strats feel so nice too play, would love this guitar
I love that guitar man I want it so bad! 😂 So sick! Stratocasters for metal just feel so smooth
I Love This Guitar Signature 🖤🖤🖤
OMG YES! I want this so badly!
I own both the jazzmaster and the stratocaster, those are my absolute favourite guitars
Love the look of this guitar
That is one cool looking Strat, sounds great to.
That guitar is awesome, and that case is definitely cool!
Definitely like the looks of this instrument.
My one of my dream guitars
Love it. They moved the volume knob, the only thing that stopped me getting a strat...!
It sounds beautiful clean.
I've played that strat - it's a *total* beast!
Man the tone is right on!!!!
Holy sh*t! sounds massive! i had the jazzmaster, amazing guitar and guitars.
I had one in white. I really miss it. I don't know they stopped offering that color. Yes, the case was incredible.
You nailed the tone
That tone is fookin HUGE man
I love the look of that Strat. I have the white Jim Root Telecaster and like it alot. Only guitar I prefer over it is my Japanese ESP E-II but that's on another level of build and sound quality.
