Bass Synth question: ZZ Top - Legs

I used a pick, played 16th notes, DOD FX25 Envelope Filter and a MXR Phase 90. Don't judge me, it was 1984-5 and that's what I had to work with at the time. Thankfully, there are no surviving recordings of those gigs.
I'm sure today there are lots of better choices.
To be fair, the DOD did a fair job on "Thug".
