how to COP that Nancy Tele Sound
#1 is a .0033 Cap in series on the Bridge's hot wire (full time or use a Push Pull pot) its a simple Bass Filter Switch
#2 use a Two speaker amp and Reverb - Flip the wires on the last speaker so its "Out Of phase" shooting backwards.

#3 CRANK the amp hard but do go on and adjust to your taste or try to mimic this Clips tone to the bone!

here is my attempt: --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sObmiiHpqNU
 
Interesting; I've never experimented with speakers in the same cab out of phase with each other.
Was that something Roy did, or just a hack to get closer to his sound?
I know he used to face his cab backwards, but hadn't heard about the OOP trick.
