Sound Like Black Sabbath | Without Busting The Bank 

I think black sabbath deserves a sounds like by busting the bank

Why not ever sound like the bassist? Geezer Butlers bass tone is just as iconic.

I like all the pretend running about as if you weren't just gonna go straight for the Epiphone Tony Iommi signature.

I met Iommi some years back and mentioned his signature pickups to him because it was the very first pickup I ever purchased. He had no clue what I was talking about, his manager buddy had to remind him of what I was talking about. Actually, it sounded as though he really didn't have anything to do with it, more like he just signed a paper and *POOF* it was made. Really sweet guy though. Him and Chris Broderick are the nicest guitarist I've met to date.

Would love to hear sounds like Sleep or sounds like Electric Wizard, something along those lines! Would be awesome!

Sound like John Petrucci. Sound like Buckethead Sound like Gary Moore

I liked Matt's rhythm rig way better this time. That P90 SG sounds killer!

To be honest, if you add the rhythm guitar, why not the bass if you want a thicker sound? Geezer is as vital to the sound as Iommi is and that would give a better representation in my opinion. Obviously for a two guitar band you'd go for them both, but in the case of a bass and guitar, why not both?

YEEEESSSSSS now PLEASE do Alice in Chains!! i absolutely love these videos, thanks guys!!

The SabbraCadabbra actually has a treble booster as part of its design.

back in middle school everybody was into kiss...i didnt even know who they were..i was so into black sabbath..

Fact: Tony Iommi's earliest work, up until the Black Sabbath album, was made with a Strat.

Sound like Rush. It'd be cool to actually do a sounds like Geddy Lee.

sound like sunn o))), sleep, kyuss or boris with busting the bank.

My all time favorite band, by far!! Great job gentlemen!

Sound like Fast Eddie from Motörhead!

During Paranoid, I honestly think Matt had a better Iommi tone than Bea.

loveless 25th anniversary coming up soon. would be great to go a Kevin Shields sounds-like in honor of the best shoe gaze album of all time.

Yes! I have been waiting for this!

You guys should do sound like Jerry Cantrell

Sounds like The Smiths' charming guitarist Johnny Marr!

SOUND LIKE THE WHO, THE SMITHS, THE CURE AND MICK RONSON

I really appreciate these videos! Gives me some knowledge on guitars & distorion etc., and I really want to learn how to play guitar, so it makes me happy that I can watch these videos!

Absolutely love watching Bea play, you can see he’s loving every second of it!

Sound Like Gary Clark Jr. Please!

The first two Black Sabbath records (including Paranoid), are in standard tuning.

We need a Sound Like The Cure. Maybe with a bass cameo???

Great video, as per usual. Your video making techniques are a big influence to me. They look and sound nice and are edited very well.

Sound like Judas Priest?

Pretty good guys. How about sounds like Megadeth, I dare you ;-)

sound like Tony iommi by busting the bank

Awesome!!! Thanks guys!! First listened to sabbath in early eighties at school...

Wasn't a sabra cadabra modeled on a Laney with the catalinbread treble booster circuit?

Great sound but two small points of critizism: 1) I would really have liked to hear what could have been done with just the amp alone and 2) Since they are a one-guitar band with an iconic bassist as well it would have been a little more authentic and also cool to also do a sounds like Geezer Butler... Other than that, I do love the series and this episode very much!

this is one of the best content in YT, Really great job!!

THIS is among my most fave videos. Love it.

Sound like Iron Maiden Somewhere in time

Sounds like King Buzzo.

you two are having too much fun!! excellent video! Thank you!

I was watching some random videos and I just glance at the recommended videos and this is there. my heart stopped THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

The ssbbara cadabara pedal already covers the treble boost

Sabbra Cadabra was a song title from their Sabbath Bloody Sabbath album. Anyway, thanks for cover I.g the guitarist that got me interested in playing guitar waaaay back when! That Epi guitar got you about 90% of the way to Tony's sound! Thanks again, guys, great work!

good job! and what a lovely red sg, beautiful.

i had those albums when they came and listening to you i did'nt want you to stop.excellent!

Thanks for finally getting to Sabbath dudes!!!! Can we get a deep purple and Cliff Burton soon?

They forgot a delay pedal, Toni used like, really quick delay during solos

Awesome video again guys ive been trying to get a sabbath tone and this was really helpful. Might have to give a sabbra cadabra a try

You nailed the tone. Sweet Leaf was perfect!! Well done guys.

Bea "so Matt what are you using?" Matt "yes"

sound like the smashing pumpkins! please.

I couldn't help singing out loud the words "Alright now..won't ya listen" during the Sweet Leaf jam. Awesome!

Thissss is what i was waiting for

Ok, Zeppelin and Sabbath. Now complete the holy trinity and do Deep Purple next!

Sound Frank Zappa or Mahavishnu orchestra!!

Loved that P90 SG sound. Awesome

Hey guys..love the friggin sounds 🤘🎵

Sounds like Buckethead would be really cool

No detuning and laying down some Vol 4/Sabotage riffs? :( Maybe you could do a part 2 of this "Sounds like" with these less "obvious" Tony Iommi tones, would be interesting. Great video, though, sounded really good. Cheers.

wow, you two have both of recent March purchases (happy birthday presents to myself)....i got the Iommi model sent to me by AMS and i went out and bought the 66 reissue at Guitar Center..they both play like a dream...now i want to play (or sound) like Iommi... great video! thanks for uploading!

Guys, Great segment, thank you for the ideas. --I just caught myself falling into vocals during your pretty sweet play of Sweet-Leaf. LOL... we need to get the band together!

Would you ever do a Sound like Jon Fratelli or Coheed and Cambria?

I'd love a Sound like Periphery next :)

Really liked this one!

Nice job guys, keep it going. All the best.

make a sound like Eddie Van Halen please

can you do sound like megadeth or marty friedman?

Hell yeah!! Finally!!!

Bass and Drum part ·Geezer Butler -Butler uses Lackland PJ. You can get a similar tone with Yamaha BB734 wich has active electronic (Geezer has a EMG signature set) or if you want the exact oldy tone, a Fender Standard P bass. Geezer also played other basses, but that was not the rule. The pickup configuration depends of the song -Laney is THE Sabbath amp since the begining of times. The RB3 combo is a good choice. Set it with a warm and agressive tone, low mids and powerfull bass and treble. A little gain -Of course, a MXR Bass Envelope ·Bill Ward -Just your standard drum set with double pedal and at least two rack toms. Wooden snare -Paiste is a good cymbal choose, PST 7 series

Sound like SLAYER!

Sound like buckethead please :D

You guys nailed the tone!!!

Awesome sounds!

First part to sounding like black sabbath is crosses. Crosses everywhere!

Sounds like KARNIVOOL! I Know you wanna do it!

So much for dedication, Rubea didn't even cut the tips of his fingers off! Seriously though, all you need is that pedal to sound like Sabbath. Catalinbread nailed it. And for a great Plexi sound, the Dirty Little Secret is fantastic too.

Nailed it!

this must have been the easiest tone chase because everything was actually made to sound like tony by tony.

OK, HOW MANY PEOPLE SANG THE LYRICS WHEN BEA WAS PLAYING THE LEAD MELODY TO WAR PIGS? I KNOW I DID

I love Black Sabbath. Thank you for doing this :D I'd love to see a "Sound Like My Bloody Valentine" :D

I can't wait to see them. I'm only 24 and I'm just getting into Black Sabbath and WOW! I need to keep going and listening to all the big names in history so when I have a kid, I'll make sure they listen to it all. No ignorance in terms of music. All about being open minded. I'm seeing them here in London! All the way up front! I swear moving to the UK, specifically London was the best thing I could have done.

Tame Impala

Sound like Thin Lizzy?

When you cant stop a smile while working that guitar that is awesome I love it

Nice job on this one guys! I'd also like to see you do, sound like Boston.

sounds like TOSIN ABASI and let the captain play the parts! good luck! (thumbs up so they see it!)

Sound like Stevie Ray Vaughan!

Both of those guitars sound excellent. I also love the Iomi Laney amps.

after All these years, it is still one of my favourite video

sound like Gojira!!!

Is it just me or does Matts rig sound more like Tony?

I went to see Sabbath a few weeks ago. Fantastic band, and fantastic video.

God I love the tones of early Sabbath!!! The mid-heavy, fuzzy drones and smooth, ringing treble sounds... to me, they are the ideal representation of everything that is rock n roll.

sounds like smashing pumpkins. they'd be a challenge to do, for sure

Love your stuff, but does it make sense to use signature gear close to what he sounds now when trying to sound like him back in the days? You already mentioned he used P90s so P90s would have been cool... Keep up the great work!

Sick vids guys

yesss! Seeing sabbath in Hollywood this Monday, then one week later at Ozzfest!

Sound like Grateful Dead! :)

Sound like ALICE IN CHAINS, PLEASE!!!

fantastic series

Wow! The dbl-tracking sound you chaps laid down was remarkably like Tony's sound. Especially the War Pigs bits. Always wanted an SG just cause of The Sabs. Seeing that T.I. Sig Epi has got me shopping again! Totally did "Sound like"...
