Hi, there. I just received a Danelectro Longhorn Bass, my second short scale bass. While I love the feel and sound (just installed La Bella flats), I'm not in love with the tone and volume controls. What I'm thinking of doing is converting to a Jerry Jones setup (volume, tone and three-way...

I bought my non-BW equipped TKO 65 for $80 off CL. Love it. Loud enough for practice and jam, and depending on your drummer/style of music, should be fine for a small house, though you can mic it (or use a $40 Behringer DI box) for live uses. Good luck.
