Why these settings

The M-Vave Tank G is a multi-FX unit; select its highest-gain British-style amp model. The original Laney Supergroup was non-master-volume and driven hard with a Rangemaster in front. Your Les Paul's hotter humbuckers vs Iommi's SG mean you need slightly less gain (-0.5 from original). Push mid +1 and treble +1 vs typical settings because the Rangemaster's job was adding upper-mid harmonic bite. No presence knob on most Tank G amp models — compensate with treble. Tune to C# standard or the riff loses its characteristic loose growl.

PRO TIPPalm mute heavily on the main riff but release just before each chord stab — Iommi's attack comes from the contrast between the muted chug and the open chord hit, not from constant chugging.
