After 8 years this is still my favourite rig rundown, because this rig is a little different than Jim‘s regular rig.

The EMG pickups help with that. Fenders give a good, crisp sound, and that sounds cool with solid EMGs, which are ideal for any metal band.

Jim uses Marvin (his guitar tech) to switch his pedals on during Slipknot concerts due to the large amount of chaos that goes on, on stage. When he plays with Stone Sour he switches the pedals himself.

All guitars can be used for metal if you have the right hardware and settings. All of his guitars for the harder songs all carry EMGs, not to mention he uses Orange amps which are really good for distortion and his pedals over all. Plus Root is a big fan of vintage style things. He really enjoys Fenders which makes sense since his main influences are classic rock/blues players.

For guitar players in rock, and especialy metal styles, they are very active onstage. they like to run around and mess with the audience, headbang, free to do what ever they want. wether or not they operate their pedal bored doesnt relate at all to how good they are on guitar. having your tech do all of the switching is more efficient; seeing as that is at least half of his job on top of having to make sure amps and any rack gear you have works great. plus the tech can switch faster. there ya go
