The Jim Root Signature Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 1 HH FR E/M pays tribute to the punishing six-string barrage he has been synonymous with Iowa metal institution Slipknot for over 20 years.

The super-heavy sounding, high-performance signature model boasts signature EMG Daemonum humbucking pickups that provide all the ferocity of active pickups with the nuance and response of passive pickups.

The instrument’s simple circuitry and design maintains the straightforward appeal that has made Charvel one of the most beloved high-performance brands in rock and metal.

A single volume knob and no-frills three way pickup selector allows for plenty of tone options without any fuss.

There’s a Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo and Charvel locking tuners for those who love to dive bomb but hate to worry about tuning, while featuring a 12”-16” compound radius fingerboard with rolled edges, 22 jumbo frets, and side Luminlay fret markers.

There is a maple fingerboard option in Satin Black and an ebony fingerboard option in Satin White, both with a mahogany body.

The contoured body with a scalloped lower back bout for easy access to upper-frets joins a bolt-on maple neck that is reinforced with graphite that guarantees durability and improves playability.
