How can I achieve Metallica's LOAD album tone

[Nelson Nascimento]

Hi guys, new AXE FX II user here!

Can someone help me to achieve Metallica's LOAD album tone? I've been messing around with amps and tone match an nothing of what I do helps me achieve the tone of LOAD. The black album it's almost there but I want the LOAD tone.

Cheers

Mark IV or Triaxis, I believe, would be a good starting point. V30 loaded Mesa cab. Go.

There was a guy on here that made a ton of Metallica tone matches. They sound really good. He did one from each album. Try searching for them. I believe his name was John or something.

Here is the link to his Load tone Matches. Depending on your FW you may need to adjust a few settings like MV out output.
