Yeah, I dig that Hucklebuck riff that Ron Jr throws in somewhere in the middle

Question for your bass player. What are your pickup and tone knobs set at on your longhorn bass. I know it is a geeky question, but I have a longhorn too and I like your tone. Thanks.

[novapup2001]

Ah, but that is asking for The Twang Tens' "secret sauce". I will say that it is a combination of tone control, the amp and you must find the ever-elusive flat-wound short scale bass strings :-) -DaddyO Dave

C'mon! My old band "The Delstars" secret sauce was leaded gasoline. I have Labella flat wounds on it, I just wondered if you played the bridge, neck, or both pickups. That's all DaddyO.

[novapup2001]

@Timpala44 Hehe...has to be both pickups or it gets too tinny if bridge only. Both pickups will get the fatter sound you need because Dano LHs usually have a hard time "projecting". Rely on the flats for the plunk. Hope that helps.

@novapup2001 I have the Delstars' Surfin Impala cassette. Am I ancient or what?

[Timpala44]

Cool! We had a couple of 7"-ers and a full length. We went into hiding in 1999.
