I use a Frantone Bassweet for that; my other favorite bass FF clone was the TecAmp Dream Buzz. But definitely check out that www.bassfuzz.com  as Danny says. |

oldironsights - The Bluebeard is muff-based. |

Are the Boss FZ 2 or 5 based on a muff circuit? I have a friend that uses an FZ-2 and it sounds pretty good...

Look for Fuzz Face, Super Fuzz, Tone Bender, and octave fuzz variants. |

Damn you, Effects forum, and your G.A.S. inducing qualities!

I'm going to eventually build up a clone and mod it.  |

It and the Superfuzz type (e.g. the Guyatone TZ-2) are my favorite fuzzes.
The MXR Blue Box is probably not up your alley, but it's definitely different from a Muff.
