Supernaut Posted Thursday at 13:48 Posted Thursday at 13:48 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? /rantover Quote
Lozz196 Posted Thursday at 14:11 Posted Thursday at 14:11 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. Quote

tayste_2000 Posted Thursday at 19:10 Posted Thursday at 19:10 Does anyone even use an amp these days? 2 3 Quote
pantherairsoft Posted Thursday at 19:19 Posted Thursday at 19:19 Only one low gain OD!? Lightweights. Anything less than three stacked drive pedals and it’s not really bass 1 2 Quote
Sibob Posted Thursday at 19:45 Posted Thursday at 19:45 Sometimes I just use a low-gain overdrive into my bass. Si 4 Quote
