Sound Like Tool (Adam Jones) | BY Busting The Bank

In today's episode of Sound Like, Rabea & Matt try to recreate the drop-tuned riffs of Adam Jones from Tool! Combining a Gibson Les Paul Custom, three amps and a mixture of BOSS, MXR and DOD pedals. The result? A thick, textured, stadium-filling tone. This one will be tough to replicate!

[@Todesnuss]

Almost more interested in that bass tone to be honest.

[@gregg4164]

Yep. The Specter basses have an awesome tone and then trow a B7K infront and you can forget about it.

[@CanUSeeRJB1]

Todesnuss I feel like Rabea coulda used some compression

[@Todesnuss]

I'm not sure what you two are trying to say. I am talking about the fact that I really like the bass sound and are surprised how close it got even though I ususaly don't like the sound of Spectors all that much.

[@CanUSeeRJB1]

Todesnuss I was talking about the Gibson, not the bass

[@Todesnuss]

To be honest it felt almost to compressed and I'm not sure the doubler helped either since it fucks up the frequencies in a mono setup.

Justin’s using warwick now . I’m a guitar guy and dunno much about bass, does anyone here can shed some light on the warwick ? Coz i like the Wal sound and i dunno much about the warwick .

[@christmeister]

@@Danny-wv8ec I don't think he's gonna replace the Wal entirely with the Warwick. I think that he's gonna do the same thing like how he did in Ænima where he used the Stingray on some songs.

[@nolanw3991]

Danny B The reason he is switching to Warwick is because he got a deal from Warwick and they are making him a signature bass where as wal wasn’t giving him anything. Also the Warwick will have big blade man 4 pickups that imitate the wall sound

[@jacobmudd8024]

you can get decently close with a spector or a bass with a lot of midrange and active pickups

Justin chancellor is the reason I love playing bass. Iv been chasing that tone of his for years now

[@ZomBeatBrainZ]

What really surprised me about Tool.... For years, some of my most favorite riffs/sounds I had associated with it being Guitar. Later on I realized that it was Justin on bass all along. Never before had I experienced music where the bassist contributed so much texture and creativity to the sound.

[@stevederp9801]

I just wrote a long winded comment basically saying that. It sounded so unbelievably bad. Like these guys are supposed to be professional who work at a guitar shop, record these videos. Yet a riff that isn’t even complicated. It’s honestly incredibly easy. And they made it sound like a nickel back song. It absolutely ruined it for me. It kind of ruined this video series for me. What a terrible way to squander $10,000 worth of quality gear.

[@JackFou]

Guitar tone: meh. Bass tone: holy shit, that's spot on!

[@juakoblues]

JackFou same here, but I thing that the guitar without the diezel just naild it. The "clean" parts Where almost exactly the same as Adam Jones tone

[@JackFou]

Could very well be. It could also be a number of things like the EQ, the attenuator, the recording/post processing. I think they did a really good job because as you said the cleaner parts were exactly spot on. My reaction was also in parts because super saturated high-gain sound isn't really all that interesting for my ears.

[@luvisacigarette8]

My first impression of the guitar tone was "too much mids." Especially if you're referencing 10000 Days, you need a more "spunky" sounding tone with a rich high end presence. You can really hear it in Jambi and the last section of Rosetta Stoned

[@tleuven]

Hm, it's close but no cigar. I think the guitar tone is closer, not on every part though.

[@BassRacerx]

toold bass sound is soo easy to nail with an any bass as long as it's active and you are playing through a sansamp.

I strongly disagree, Adam is just as great as Justin in my opinion. Both are absolute magicians.

[@joshsmith7033]

Fuck the bass....

[@j6shy]

@@naveedalikhan108 imo, they are both amazing musicians, but in terms of general respect among their respective communities, Justin's techniques and tones are far more sought after and respected between bassists when compared to Adam in guitar communities, where he doesn't get enough respect in my opinion with people saying he has nothing unique about him. I love both of them, and they are both equally as talented. With that being said, I would say that Justin is more innovative on his respective instrument, but Adam is still a monster with a perfect refined tone, and techniques like ambient pick scrapes found in Third Eye, Talkbox used in Jambi, picking behind the bridge in Eulogy, and more.

[@Dennis19901]

@FalconerPhoto And even if that were true. That's completely irrelevant. Playing a riff wrong is objective and not related at all to anyone else being able to play this or not. Your reaction is absolutely useless.

[@leyfemasso1319]

i was gonna say the same thing, almost every riff they played. they played wrong

[@House.Of.Pain.]

Lol right! I really applaud them for at least being able to get the sound close to the original by ear but they’re way off on the notes to play! When he played Vicarious my ooze oozed, and flesh crawled 😂. Ok, I’m exaggerating but he was way off on guitar! I literally play Vicarious almost every single day as one of my warm up songs to loosen up my hands, and fingers. I can with 100% confidence say that it was way off. Like Shaq trying to shoot a free throw off!

[@LoreAccurateHusky]

To anyone that likes Tool I want to let you in on a little secret. The band itself has multiple albums and not just Lateralus. I even hear they might have released an album called Undertow but I think it was a secret release judging how not many know of it.

To be honest, I didnt really feel it. Guitars seemed off. I can't quite put my finger on it though. Bass was not tight enough either. Granted, it's hard to emulate whatever black magic is going on in a WAL bass. But I think you should have gone for a two humbucker Spector instead of the PJ one. The P-Pickup is too soft for the target sound. Then use a GK or Mesa Amp for bass. I know it's a guitar video but I think a huge part of getting the guitar right is getting the bass right as well.

He uses a simple dunlop wah and dd3 delay. Also (and this may be the most important pedal) he uses a ernie ball passive volume pedal. And finally for 10000 days hes using the helio talk box. Dont forget the glass slide! Thats exact and extremely simple.

@@mobeus84 his dunlop wah is a multiwah

I just saw them last night (; they're one of my favorites

[@alexanderpeters2368]

hey guys!!! I just saw Tool live in Hamilton Ontario on the 31st. Good timing on the video! Thanks for saving me 5 hours trying to dial in the reverb and delay time :)

[@drewdickmann9210]

I'mma be real wit ya chief, them riffs were sloppy lmao

[@nordrammus8323]

Sound like Slayer lm/

[@ExplosiveNotes]

When did Slayer use 5150?

[@willbrewer9253]

ExplosiveNotes it's a easy high gain amp. It's not for the sake of them using that amp, it's an easy acquired tone from it.

[@Razrback]

You guys nailed it

[@crhoads1024]

Love the vids! Thanks so much!

[@avlkush]

Where is Rabea, and what have you done with him?!!

What a way to make up for the absence of a sound like yesterday! can i get Metallica BY busting the bank, along with Eric Clapton, Johnny Marr, Stephen Carpenter, Joe Satriani, Jack White, anything else would be nice and maybe some Radiohead Without Busting cos I'VE BEEN ASKING FOR WEEKS or you could do something much different and try a lesser known guitarist called Jeff Williams i made a rig for a jeff williams sound like i saw him using a Musicman JP6 in a video which is a great guitar but it is rare, probably expensive and andertons haven't got it so i think the JP60 is gonna do the job, and i know normally we'd go "no sig for someone else's rig" but i made a rule where if the guitarist has used or does use someone else's signature guitar and you can get it then it's ok to use it, so JP60 for amps i'm not sure what he uses but it might be something along the lines of Kemper, Axe FX, Marshall or maybe even Mesa cos he seems like he's influenced by guys such as John Petrucci... looking back in the Motley Crue sound like where they used a Blackstar HT Club 40 the guitar into amp demo tone sounded close to the tone in "I Burn" so in that case get the HT Club 40 for pedals i am not sure but it looks like a multi fx pedal, i think the two pedals that are most common would be overdrive and wah cos he uses wah in a lot of solos including the solos in I Burn, Boop, Dream Come True and Not Fall In Love With You, so a cheap Boss OD like the Super Overdrive and a Dunlop Cry Baby Wah will do the job Musicman JP60 - £670 Blackstar HT Club 40 - £450 Boss Super Overdrive - £50 Dunlop Cry Baby Wah - £90 coming in at £1260

[@widowmaker5544]

ooh jeff williams, i like it, along with the heavily requested Radiohead

[@rawfusion]

I'm not a musician but I am a big TOOL fan, and I really enjoyed this video. Nice!

[@midnightmetal4ever]

Love these videos! Had no idea the VH4 pedal existed, but now I need one to add to my sound. Thanks!

[@KodyXXVll]

i've owned one. it sucked dick. sounded shrill and just not good. i can make my amp's distortion sound way better quality and it's just a blackstar venue 60 mkii.

[@luisvazquez6381]

Sound like King gizzard!!!!!

[@kidamnesiac6823]

NOOOOO🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Toothpastman]

Recently I thought that you could try to collect rigs that would be good for a specific genre on three diffrent budgets: really cheap/ begginner, medium price/ mediocore, expensive/ pro. For example 1000£, 2250£ and 4000£? You could try to find guitars, amps and pedals for genres like Indie, metal, punk etc. Think about it, love your videos! Cheers

[@heavyribassmaiden4924]

Jesus WHAT AN AWSOME VIDEO!!!!!

[@SoundFriendly]

Best tone on the series (Sounding like..) thus far!! Congrats. Really dig this. It shows that a Marshall can be whatever you want it to be with the right distortion pedal in front of it.

[@faboolean7039]

Maybe we could have a bass edition of this. Jason needs some love.

[@isaiahcoles3274]

Who's Jason?

JAAAASOOOON

No matter how many times I hear it, I will always love the intro for Lateralus
