Many thanks Storm. A few months ago, all I knew was to thump-in on the down beat at the beginning of the intro or verse 1. But then I heard a few songs where the bassist comes in at the end of the intro. But that requires that some kind of melodic structure to be worked out so that at the beginning of the next phrase you're ready to seemlessly transition from into to verse 1. You don't want to come in too early, nor too late.

Thanks for noticing this. I'm still improving on this skill.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
