I am so done with the low gain OD thing...

[Supernaut]

Maybe I've attended too many gigs this year but almost every bass player I've seen recently has had the same tone: 
 

Fender P/J > low gain OD

 

Does anyone play straight into an amp anymore?

I do in 2 of my bands, the 3rd (which I`ve now left) did get some gain from a Sansamp, but only noticeable if digging in. Have to say after years of using preamp pedals I do prefer bass straight into an amp nowadays. Miraculously it sounds like a bass that way.

Maybe you should go and see some different bands 😂

Does anyone even use an amp these days?

Only one low gain OD!? Lightweights. Anything less than three stacked drive pedals and it’s not really bass
