Great ear, man. Sounds right on and has the elusive “vibe” of his tone. Tony is one of the very few guitar heroes that was a groundbreaker but has become radically better with the years. Nothing short of amazing.

[@ulfdanielsen6009]

One thing is the various Iommi tones you nail to perfection, another is the free VST suite, a third is your obvious love for Sabbath´s music, a fourth is War Pigs, Into The Void, Paranoid, Children Of The Grave, Iron Man, N.I.B. and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, but most of all it´s the awesome name you´ve given your channel that made me sub on the spot Captain. Hoist the anchor you miserable scrawny looters, pillagers and scallywags,- let´s go find ourselves something shiny, aarrhh.....! Aye, Captain,- by the strength of our backs and by the sweat of our brows t´wards the sunset we sail, arrrhhh.....

[@Cody2nd]

Dude you deserve a million subs. You’re so helpful and make things really simple!

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Tha ks my friend. I just want to help people achieve their goals 😎

[@kidlargo1]

Very well done!! Great tones!

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Thanks 😎🤘

[@Transformaster]

Happy to see you back friend!

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Thank you so much for staying a subscriber!!!

[@MreenalMams]

Thats pretty accurate sounding.. i don't know why in my mind i think that Tony's tone was low-focused but it's actually pretty Treble-focused.. Maybe cuz of Geezer's tone

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Well, it is a really muddy tone on masters of reality. I believe his tone knob is turned down. Luckily though you don't need to do that using the IR

[@MreenalMams]

@@piratestudiosproductions Oh ya that's a pretty neat trick.. i often have my tone knob on my guitar at 0 except when playing cleans.. i think i may be the only person who likes 'muddy' 😅..

[@ShinoGuitar]

Damn, I can't tell the difference between Tony's tone and yours. Great job.

[@piratestudiosproductions]

It's very easy with these impulse responses. You should definitely purchase some for yourself. 😎🤘

[@davidbachy5627]

Great demonstration!

F*** Yeah! subbed!

Thanks, jzir makes dreams a reality :D

[@glennhutson2015]

Cool 🤘

[@samhain6953]

I use a cheap 7 string set deleting the high bottom string. Tuned to B. I use an invader. A Beringer ultrametal pedal on 18v

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Cool man

[@mojobag01]

Tony plays a lot of those riffs off the bottom E string.

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Yeah, riffs of doom 🤘

[@ScalerWave]

Reaper Rulez !

[@donw.k.6877]

Great job on tone matching the early stuff (dont care for their post 70s material)! However, you mentioned there are 3 free IRs for Ignite / Black Sabbath and I can only find th one for 'Time Machine' when I really want to emulate their old sound. Can you provide the URLs for these please? Thanks

[@piratestudiosproductions]

There are some free packs jzir.gumroad.com/?query=free&_ga=2.180387937.754831541.1667863002-884599370.1667739697&_gl=1*5177je*_ga*ODg0NTk5MzcwLjE2Njc3Mzk2OTc.*_ga_6LJN6D94N6*MTY2Nzg2NTM0NS4zLjEuMTY2Nzg2NTU0My4wLjAuMA.. but the Black Sabbath ones are not free. I said in the beginning of the video. how about $10 a tone. Here are the old Black Sabbathtones jzir.gumroad.com/?query=black+sabbath&_ga=2.180387937.754831541.1667863002-884599370.1667739697&_gl=1*5177je*_ga*ODg0NTk5MzcwLjE2Njc3Mzk2OTc.*_ga_6LJN6D94N6*MTY2Nzg2NTM0NS4zLjEuMTY2Nzg2NTU0My4wLjAuMA.. $10 is a steal. Enjoy

[@donw.k.6877]

@@piratestudiosproductions OK, assume you bought the Sabbath Bloody Sabbath IR? Is that what you used on all the vintage Sabbath tracks?

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Those are the first album, masters of reality, and Sabbath bloody Sabbath.

[@donw.k.6877]

@@piratestudiosproductions I'm not going to buy them all as £10 for a single IR is not cheap when Audio Assault are selling an entire VST amp with cabs included like the AHM 5050 for $5. Would SBS be the best all rounded you think?

[@piratestudiosproductions]

That's up to you man. Get the one that does the song you like the best. Sounds like Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is your favorite.

[@ACE-hv5sw]

This is badass! I’m new to all this, so how does the sound work? CP speakers?

[@piratestudiosproductions]

CP speakers, what do you mean? Do you mean how do you put put your sound signal out from your computer for the stage? If so, you could go from your interface to the house and/or PA. That's what I do with my laptop for a live rig if I'm not using my real amp.

[@ACE-hv5sw]

So using those programs you linked with any amp/guitar and it’ll sound like that for the most part? Obviously it’ll only be as good as I can play but the sound will be close?

[@piratestudiosproductions]

If you choose the matching impulse response made for the amp sim you are using, yes.

[@katrinacerise6221]

Amp sim?​@@piratestudiosproductions

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Yes

[@sydguitar99]

It sucks tho how a lot of modern-day modeling amps focus way too much on low-end and mids when the best metal came from British amp sounds that focused mainly on highs and the top end

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Every time I set the EQ on an amp, I can't help making it sound like that. Its what my ears like.

[@brucedickinson8993]

can you share the black sabbath ir?

[@piratestudiosproductions]

The link where to purchase it is in the description of this video :D

Why not for BIAS FX?

It works for Bias FX too :D

thank you!

Dang...thought it was Sean from slipknot.

War Pigs 😎🤘

[@lionbyte8049]

I hate videos that the author spends more time playing than the actual purpose of the video.

[@piratestudiosproductions]

What is the purpose of this video supposed to be in your eyes?

[@lionbyte8049]

@@piratestudiosproductions To show how to get the sound. Not showing that you know how to play Black Sabbath tunes. Show the equipment your using, setup & setting. Then showoff on how well to play BS tunes. Actually, the title "How to get the guitar tone of Black Sabbath", HOW TO not hear guitar tone of Black Sabbath in my ears not eyes. At beginning you say I can get these sounds for $10, but then you say the software is $60 and join something that cost me $19 a mouth. This is more of a software tutorial.

[@piratestudiosproductions]

@lionbyte8049 they are just impulse responses, pretty simple. But as crappy the quality of this video is, I'm going to make a new one. Thanks

[@kefla01]

Pretty sure he’s just playing to show you what it sounds like. He did also show you how to get it

[@jamesmoffett8800]

Tony actually used a fender strat for most of the first album. It still sounded heavy. He switched to the sg because his fender quit working if you listen closely you can hear the difference in the songs

[@piratestudiosproductions]

That's cool man, but this has nothing to do with the kind of guitar or even the kind of pickup you have. That's the awesome thing about these Impulse respones is that they sound identical to the album tone with any guitar you use 😀

[@fancylettuce9165]

Production quality is crazy for your amount of subs man keep grinding. Also great knowledge. Thanks for the tips man keep rockin!

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Thanks, I guess I just don't advertise enough. I plan to change that this week

[@HeavyMetalShredder]

finally someone who actually knows what sabbath sounds like XDDD. you have no idea how many channels i went to to see people half assing tonys tone and just throwing together a miscellaneous laney setup that was completely inaccurate to tonys actual rig, and they soudn super inaccurate. you acytually nailed the tone without even using an epiphone. sick man! also 9:03 sabbath bloody sabbath babyyyyy

[@sgrimm7346]

Good job dude.... Your channel came up because of some other Iommi stuff I was listening to....I like what you're doing....Keep it up brother.......You killed it on those tones. \../

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Thanks so much, got some Sabbath covers coming down the pipeline. Thanks so much for Subscribing :D

[@MrCrrispy]

Awesome. And that riff from the bridge of bloody sabbath is still frightening 🙂

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Probly one of the heaviest rifds ever written 😎🤘

[@clark132]

What’s the best way to shoot videos in a similar style to this one?

[@piratestudiosproductions]

I actually did this particular video the hard way compared to the way I do it now. The easiest way is to download OBS and you can send your DAW audio to it and it will record your screen and the audio from your computer, and then my camera is just a GoPro hero 7. Reaper is my DAW and it actually does audio and video. I did this video with reaper. Thanks for watching 😎🤘

[@jeffcornelison888]

Sounds just like Tony! Awesome video!

[@piratestudiosproductions]

I know, it's a dream come true for a hardcore fan like me :D

[@whyismynametaken123]

Tony used P90's on atleast his first few records (minus the song paranoid), then later he started using humbuckers.

[@piratestudiosproductions]

With these IRs it doesn't matter what pickups you use. It will still sound accurate 😎

[@dmitriyd1213]

Awesome

[@zombies418]

Can you please do one for Judas Priest 🫶🏻

[@piratestudiosproductions]

Thanks for the Subscription :D I definitely hope you enjoy the content, and I will definitely do other bands in the future, but if there are other bands you want the guitar sounds of. You could go to the linktree site and search for Judas Priest and any other bands. And if you join the JZIR group on Facebook you can ask Jason to make the IR your looking for if he doesn't have it already :D

[@Iwanttoblowmybrainsoutrn]

This is so damn accurate wow

[@piratestudiosproductions]

I know right, they are awesome impulse responses 😎🤘
