Hi there, I'm Andy with [B] ProGuitarShop.com.
Here's [Em] your next riff of the day, it's Black Sabbath and N.I..B. This is just a fun one to play from their first album, and it has [B] a really heavy tone despite it being [Em] in standard tuning. This has a lot to do with Tony Iommi's choice of gear. But before we start, I want to remind you about Free Pedal Friday. Every Friday, ProGuitarShop has a [A] free pedal giveaway, and all you have to [C] do to enter is click this link each week. [B] To reproduce Mr. Iommi's early sound, we're starting with a sturdy [F#] foundation of [Em] vintage British amp tones via the [D] Catlin Bred Dirty Little [B] Secret MK3. The DLS not only re-voices our Fender amps to match the same EQ [Em] and gain structure of an EL34-based circuit, [B] but interacts the same way as an amp would when pushed with other pedals. This leads us to the Naga Viper, [Em] Catlin Bred's special blend of old-school boost with modern versatility. I'm using the Naga Viper just like a classic treble booster, [G] which adds gain and slices through the low [C] end while bringing out a haunting mid-range [B] emphasis. And you can find both of these Catlin Bred effects right here at ProGuitarShop.com. [Em] [F#] [E]

Well there's your riff of the [G] day, Black Sabbath [E] and NIB, and you heard how the Catlin Bred Dirty Little Secret MK3 can lay a foundation of classic British overdrive, while the Naga Viper cuts through with a howling mid-range and extra [E] gain for that classic Tony Iommi tone.
