NGD - Jim Root Stratocaster (clips)

[ultimatemetalguitartones]

If I remember correctly, this must be the 3rd time I've bought this model - Probably a love - hate thing (I don't dig the headstock for some reason haha) but this time I'm planning to keep it for my low tuned stuff. Anyway, here are some photos and some clips I recorded using a Marshall JMP 2203 Folkesson Kemper profile I made + some IRs (Mojotone BV30 - Peavey 412) - no post process

His sigs are def cool looking. I had the white tele years ago, always wanted to try the strat. What made you sell them off?

Strange as it may sound it has to do with the headstock + fretboard radius! Definitely a love - hate thing.

That’s valid!

congrats my friend - always have been curious about these

I love these. I like the big CBS headstock, and I love the understated look of it with the matte black, no inlays etc. What is it you don't like about the radius? Do you wish it was just a straight 12"? I personally prefer medium jumbo frets to the big 6100's like this has but I have other guitars with those too and it isn't a problem.

Love the specs on these, but wish it had the inlays and that volume knob was moved down quite a bit. Enjoy the new fiddle.
