Song 43 - "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath

Love this song and pretty much all the Ozzy-era Sabbath stuff. Had many cassettes in my youth and I’m very familiar with the song. That said, I wasn’t as familiar with the bass line as it’s a bit hidden in the mix. Moises really came to the rescue here and that helped me hear the bass solo in the middle of the song clearer so I could emulate it.

I found it much easier to go with a pick for the outro to manage the 32nd notes.

Also, this is the first showing of my new custom shop bass! Still using the Cali76 Comp pedal and Darkglass head here. I decided to keep the signal clean. I also noticed I forgot to put my little banner on the video! Oh, well it will return next time.
