Tone Questions....Iommi/Prices/Reunion CD

I have discovered exactly what tone I desire....The sound of Tony Iommi's SG from the Reunion Tour CD.

As I listened to "Into The Void" (track 8, on the first CD) on the part where he does the open low E with a hammer on from 5 to 7 on the 6th string I found it to be the most gutsy, crunchy mettalic sounding tone ever!!! I want that tone EXTREMELY bad....without buying a pair of Gibson Tony Iommi pickups. does anybody know what would sound just like that?

(and it'd be cool to know if anybody knew the distortion pedal he uses)

I think he uses his signature Laney amplifier for that. www.laneyamplifiers.com

In the old days, he used a treble booster. I doubt he does these days though. If you are interested in it still, I think a company named BSM makes a copy of it. I know it can be bought at www.musictoyz.com.
