I'm looking into effects for my bass, but I don't know what. I do like the effects that Cliff Burton used during his time, but from the people who do use effects, what is a good and cool sounding effect?
Welcome to the wild and wooly world of effects. I recommend you check out the Wiki, up in the top left corner, and then click through to the FX forum sound samples Wiki page. There you'll find a lot of recordings of many different effects, and you can get an idea of what all is out there.
