Posted on Sep 08 2008 10:37 AM yea we had to sue them to get them to change their name to the O.C.supertones that was in 1998, we had been around as the supertones since 1988 those guys didn't show up untill 1997 and they had heard of us when they called them selve the supertones too: thanks, needless to say it has been an on going problem for us with all those people who think we're them and visa virsa: the're not bad for a born again ska band form the O.C. but.definetly not the trad surf band the supertones for NYC: i had heard that they had broken up a few years ago (the O.C. supertones) that is,and we are still going strong (the supertones) form NYC cheers tim sullivan — Facebook pages theSupertones or @ Timothy C Sullivan Top

I'm not real familiar with the band, so I don't know what kind of gear they use, but I get a similar sound with my MIJ Fender Jaguar and my RI Fender Deluxe Reverb amp, but it's a pretty generic "surfy" tone.
