Yep. First, get Jake's guitar, his amp, the mixer they used, and the engineer who worked the board and did the final mix.
Then get the ability to mimic Jake's tone.

Re: The Ultimate Sin Tone
Ya know, this was the album that turned me on to Ozzy! But I would have to say that while the playing was phenomenal, the sound was POOR, and the tone was therefore also POOR. I liked Jake's work on Ozzy's albums, but his sound was soooo EFFECTED-out that it was hard to hear it in the mix. I'm pretty sure he was using modded Marshall Super Lead Plexis on Ozzy's stuff - and obviously a TON of effects, although I'm not sure if they were on-board or if they were added on in the mixdown.
But Newc is right - it's pretty tough to mimic "album tone" cuz they often used so many amps, guitars, etc., etc., in the studio that they didn't use live. Just as a for instnace - when is the last time you saw the Metallica guys using Teles? Or boutique amps? In the studio, yes, but live, no.Comment
