Good sustain pedal: any recommendations?

I'm looking for one. Any thoughts on what's good?

Maybe you can tell us what you mean (specifically) by 'sustain'? And what's your budget, and have you searched yet?

Not really: I'm acting on a recommendation that I find a good sustain pedal, so this is step one!

What I'm looking for is something that makes the bass hold its' note for ages.

I'm new to effects: haven't really had anything to do with them before. Maybe a wah pedal would be what I'm looking for?

No idea. That's why I'm on here asking.

If you don't know what it does, you don't need one...

However... Have a look at distortion/overdrives and/or compressors. Again, if you're not sure if you need one, you probably don't!
