Kathy, Wilmington, NC Reviewsbased on 2 reviewsA true Metal Axe
by John Isaac from Bessemer, PA. USA
I ordered this guitar on a Saturday morning and was playing it Monday morning! The service I received from my sales rep at Sweetwater was fantastic (Thanks Noah!) and I couldn't be more pleased. Now,... read more [+] about the guitar. This axe delivers all the down tuned thunder or metal growl you could want but surprisingly, for a mahogany bodied guitar, the notes up and down the neck ring clear without a hint of muddiness. I attribute this to the maple neck/ebony finger board combo. Fit and finish are flawless and the neck comfortable with no unruly fret edges. Set up was perfect out of the case, in fact the guitar was still tune. I like it so much I may buy the white version some time in the future. close [-]
April 8, 2013 Music Background: 28 year guitar veteran massive sound, super-playable
by tony from ATL
I love strats -and have several others. But getting some of the sounds that this one delivers simply isnt possible with the others. Enter the Jim Root version. The neck is really comfortable - you ... read more [+]can really dig in with it, but it also lets you play fast - the compound radius helps in that regard. And the mahogany body coupled with the EMGs gives you the potential to really get some heavy sounds from this. If you are looking for something that has the familiarity and feel of the strats that you love, coupled with the ability to generate massive and crushing sounds, this is a great choice. Clear and articulate clean sounds as well. Not chimey strat sounds though. Different. but very good. close [-]
