This is probably the first video I’ve seen that has an actual amp instead of an digital amp. It sounds so much identical to the actual tone. Sounds amazing man.
I know today's people just listen to shitty pop, And if they play instruments they got, Electric Drums, Digital amps, Digital pedal effect processers, bitch use the real thing
@@RomeoTRM Yeahhh I mean I'm 20 , I grew up listening to metallica 24/7 from my mom and dad so metallica has always been there for me throughout my life. I love to listen to the isolated tracks and just listen to how amazing and how much effort they put into their work. But I can say , I used bias for my metallica tones because I'm too poor to replicate their tone on my Line 6 Spider IV.
This is so perfect. It has that punch-to-the-guts sound with every single palm mute that is on the album. If my guitar sounded like this I would just chug away on the low E for hours.
The exact settings of the Mesa Boogie from AJFA are in the book of the AJFA box. There are Flemming's records showing exactly which setting the boogies had.
@@RDamps I know you said we will get some love tones soon I’m hoping we get more 90’s live tone like from 1992-1993 Metallica live tone best live tone I heard was from those years and also maybe some load/reload tones
Impulse responses have saved me from quitting guitar all together. I’ve always been a tone cloner. Never had the means to perfectly match this tone, but what Begalus did on RUclips was such a game changer! Your tone tho is a perfect match. Nicely done sir!
Im new to the more technical stuff in tone replication, what's impulse response? How do you fiddle with it, is it a monitor thing or a plug in or whatever.
Defnitely the most accurate AJFA tone on RUclips. Quad track this and I probably wouldn't be able to tell a difference between this and the studio recording
This is actually insane. I'm trying my best to hear any differences in your tone, but it legit sounds like isolated guitar tracks from the album. Incredible work!
Good rich fat but not over-saturated sound. Realistically this is probably the closest a human being can reproduce, without having bunch of studio amps and mixing. Well done
Great tone man. To clarify, you're running the Boogie into the power stage of the peavey, and then that goes to the load box which goes to the helix with the IR loader? I use Logic Pro and use VSTs/plugins like amp cabs and sims, is this the same as an IR loader? I always figured a clean tone was run through the amp before feeding it to an amp sim? Cheers!
I too have been obsessed with THAT Boogie sound. The best Metallica tone in my opinion. It's a bit more aggressive on Justice, but I kinda like the Master sound better. Another sound I have been obsessed with is the guitar sound on Danzig's first album. I have pretty much nailed that with my Marshall SV20H and also with my UAD 1959SLP plug-in.
I noticed your output signal is stereo, not mono. Are you achieving this by a delay that splits the signal and makes it sound bigger or are you running 2 IR's / Stereo IR? Great video btw, I just ordered a MB studio preamp and gonna toy around with it pretty soon :-)
Holy shit dude this like listening to them just mucking around in the studio this is the closest I’ve ever seen anyone get to mastering their tone outstanding job man
Hey I came across your video and I immediately fell in love with your tutorial and I subscribed. Can you do a tutorial on the Seattle 89 tone? Preferably the Blackened or Master of Puppet tone from that live show
You nailed it! Now, I gotta find myself that preamp! Currently rocking a 1994 Mesa Boogie DC-5 Studio Caliber 22 (with an '87 Gibson Explorer w/ Kirk Hammett Bone Breaker EMGs) -- great Mesa, but it cannot do tones like this. Incredible job!
This badass man, it sounds just like Justice. I've been trying to get this tone with amps and pedals, it is one of my favorite guitar tones. What is the EQ settings on it?
Bloody good effort Chris.. I'm in my 70's so was weened on Black Sabbath which was of course, a major influence on Metallica's style. I have three Metallica albums and I love them. It's ironic that I play 'rockabilly' as I always had a fascination with the right hand techniques used by Elvis's guitarist Scotty Moore (The Sun recordings, not the crap that followed it !), and Carl Perkins among many others. Keep on rockin mate ..
Please do an updated version of this tone, would love to see some more riffs and how exactly you dialed in this tone, also looking to purchase this preamp and figure out how to connect to an interface
Seems like the guitar really has to have an explorer "voice" to be able to replicate the sound accurately without coming across as synthetic. Other demos I've heard are either way too nasally or muddy but this sounds almost exactly like the album. What action and neck relief do you run on this guitar?
Don’t let anyone tell you EMG’s make all guitars sound the same. It’s BS. The explorer shape really does give distinct lower growl. Even EVH said he loved the tone of his Ibanez destroyer before he took a chunk out of it (near the bridge). I think it has to do with that mass of wood behind and around the bridge too. I have my action pretty low with very little relief. My strings do rattle (no fret buzz though) a little bit. I thinking of raising it a little. Also if you go too heavy on the strings you loose bite I find
@@RDamps Thanks for the tips! I've had similar experiences with lighter strings having more "bite", especially when combined with the slight rattle and extra treble that comes with a lower action. My LTD EX doesn't seem to have that low-mid growl like the real explorers do though, for whatever reason...it always sounds thin and nasally regardless of the amp it's going into.
@@RDamps Haaa Nice! Im on the hunt for a power amp for my Studio Pre! Going into the power amp of the Dual Rec actually works pretty nicely! Thats what Ive been doing1
Hi! Your tone is amazing! I'm trying to achieve the same result with a AX8 plugged into a Matrix GT1000FX and a 2x12 Mesa cab. The cab simulator is turned OFF on the AX8. I've been trying for hours to get it. I've even tried 2 EQs.. There's one frequency I cant find.. Could you explaine how Freqs works and how to set it?
...I’m going to try and dial this tone again - been a 23 year endeavour, lol. By chance, are you able to link or name the impulse responses that you used for the AJFA tone? ...I’m still absolutely stunned at how wonderfully you’ve dialed this in. Remarkable. 😎👍
I'm using a load box, then applying a cabinet impulse response. You're hearing what goes direct into the computer. I'm listening through my studio monitors. Would it be helpful if i did a more detailed video of the entire setup?
@@RDamps Reactive? I've been running similiar setup w/ loadbox/DAW/IRs for quite a while, yet it would be cool to see vid on your setup. Great tone, those studio preamps are really underestimated. Yet I think that simulclass power amp would help too, they tend to soft the pick attack. Subbed, cheers.

People who dont listen to Metallica or play guitar wont realise how amazing this is; this is actually spot on its insane
This is probably the first video I’ve seen that has an actual amp instead of an digital amp. It sounds so much identical to the actual tone. Sounds amazing man.
Thank you very much! It really does make a difference. I’m working on doing a whole cover to really show it off.

@@RomeoTRM Digital amps are a lot cheaper and actually sound pretty good nowadays. Don’t judge people for how they like to create music.
Their live tone from 1989 was probably my favorite sound they ever got.
Their live settings are very different. I will probably do a vid trying to get that tone soon
@@RDamps You should dude.
@@RDamps Please do, Im very eager to the Tutorial
it's garbage compared to san diego 92
Metallica has some of the most iconic tones that's what I love so much
It's a shame they only do the same song with different names and in a different album, specially Lars
@@eduardoibarra8020 do you have an example of that?
@@eduardoibarra8020 out of all the bands Metallica is one of the least repetitive

I do 🤣
This is the closest I've heard anybody come without using plugins etc. Well done!

Yep, I’ve been playing around with them lately. I’ve since modded my Studio Pre to MKIIC+ specs. Might be time to revisit this video
@@RDampspatiently waiting still
I think this is closest AJFA tone I’ve ever heard
Thank you!

I agree
Yeah this is pretty f**king amazing. The closest I've heard too I think
Can't beat the punch of Mesa distortion.🤘. Ya that tone is bang on for the Justice album
That tone is so close i'm almost convinced that you are playing the mastertracks on top of your playing haha.
Thank you!
Not everyone has Hetfield’s right hand Chris! 😂
Fuck ups or not this is one of the best sounding Justice tones I’ve heard. It even has that nearly overbearing low mid going on. Great job
Thanks dude!

Wow, you got it with real amps. That’s crazy. Consider me endlessly jealous. I’d love to chug on the open E with the AJFA tone.
Defnitely the most accurate AJFA tone on RUclips. Quad track this and I probably wouldn't be able to tell a difference between this and the studio recording
Did you check out my AJFA cover?
This sounds amazing. I need it
This is actually insane. I'm trying my best to hear any differences in your tone, but it legit sounds like isolated guitar tracks from the album. Incredible work!
easily the best tone i’ve heard
Thank you 🙏
Good rich fat but not over-saturated sound. Realistically this is probably the closest a human being can reproduce, without having bunch of studio amps and mixing. Well done
Thanks man!!
That tone is just so tuff sounding fucking metal dude miss the 80s
Metallica is a once in a lifetime experience. Greater and more meaningful than most will ever realize.
nice tone, sounds powerful. now you can record the whole album again.
So much power coming out of this. You can really feel it when you let the power chords ring a bit.
I’m blown away. I have mark 5 35 and I’m itching to get this tone and the black albums tone. IMO you completely nailed it
Thank you!
Wow, this is great. I've been matching these tones with free vst's and IRs, more afordable to me, but these is amazing, Like it

This guy put all of this unbelievable effort into this tone, I enjoyed the video and I learned something new, thanks man
Absolutely nailed it....now I want a Mesa Boogie Studio Pre
Thanks man! Do it, you won’t regret it 🤣
@@RDamps they’re impossible to find I’ve realized
I have the the one (rectifier recording preamp) it doesn't have the post EQ though that goes into mesa 50/50, i dont think i can get the tone.
Wow man I love that you figured this all out going the cheaper route to cause not all of us have a ton of cash. Your ear is amazing m8!
Me neither, but the studio preamp is worth every penny. Thank you very much for watching 👍
I literally started laughing when you hit the first chord. :D Instant Frayed Ends of Sanity there. :D You totally nailed the sound.
bravo, you nailed the sound!!!
my favorite metallica album by a mile and that guitar tone is SAVAGE
Thank you!

I own the mark3 blue stripe and the mesa studio preamp. This preamp with a good torpedo ir or a mooer radar pedal sound awesome.
Ajfa is my favourite album too. I would love to run through some justice riffs on your setup definitely.
I'm sure I can do that in another video
Thats probably the closest to the Justice tone ive heard without having the Mark Boogie rig.
Sound is awesome 👏👍
Thank you 😋
Congrats on that killer tone!
Thank you! The 15 year old in me is very happy 😂
Awesome tone !
Awesome job
Cheers 👍
That is absolutely killer! Is that IR available by any chance?
I don't really like their newer tones. The ajfa and black sounds are golden.
sounds pretty accurate
The best justice tone without virtual amps
Crushing!!!
Killer tone, nice job!
Great job !
My favorite song from and justice for all is blackened
Excellent tone match!! Can you put the link to the IR in the description of your video please?
I have all my patches and IR’s in my discord server. I’ll post a link shortly
that`s a great AJFA tone!! NICE!! \m/
Cheers my friend! 👍
Brilliant! finally some who fucking nailed it with no fuss 'round
That must've been so hard to capture!!!!
Is the peavey series 60 used to get the tone?
Hey man, awesome job- sound fckin incredible. Where did you find the impulse response?
BGelais Metallica pack. Check him out!
Amazingly similar !
Omg original AJFA sound. So they played on Mesa Studio preamp and clean chorus with ADA MP1
Not exactly, but the studio is extremely close to the MKIIc +
Are you going to come back to this rig setup or release anything related to it?
I am, but I’ve since modified it to MKIIc+ spec
