Adam Jones
Tool
The sculptor of sound behind Tool's hypnotic power. His rhythmic complexity, visual artistry, and dense churning guitar tone define progressive metal. Blends massive low-end riffs with textural effects, creating crushing yet intricate soundscapes through meticulous layering and precise dynamics.
SIGNATURE TONE
A tectonic plate shift. Extremely tight, heavy, and mid-focused, achieved by blending the modern precision of a Diezel VH4 with the vintage roar of a Marshall Super Bass.
