Recorded tone character
Gain character
Raw early-metal overdrive with a hard upper-mid push rather than modern saturation.
Bass
Fuller than Paranoid's fastest riffs but still controlled.

Very strong and vocal, central to Iommi's sound.
Treble
Bright and gritty without becoming thin.
Brightness / presence
Forward and urgent.

Natural loud-amp compression with a rough attack.
Effects
Modified Rangemaster treble booster is the key drive/voice element; modest studio ambience suits the spacious intro.

Targets the main distorted War Pigs guitar character. Exact song guitar identity is kept estimated rather than collapsing every Paranoid-era SG into one claimed instrument.
