Recommend a bass 'non-funky' wah
 
I would like to use it for rock & metal to spice up some parts. For funk style I use an envelope filter.

Check out Morley stuff. They have a nice non-funky wah sound to them.

Wilson 12 position vintage spec. Can go from subtle to funky.

The 535Q can be used for bass and doesn't have a "funky" sound to it.

I use the Mark Tremonti wah by Morley and it sounds great with fuzz and distortion

Morley, 535Q and Ibanez Weeping Demon are my suggestions.

Jim Martin used a Morley wah on guitar and it was one of the meanest sounds ever.

The Ibanez Weeping Demon sounds great on it's own, but it "muffles" any other pedal before in the chain.

I've never had that problem with mine, where in your chain did you put it?

AMT Japanese Girl bass wah. It's small, it's green and doesn't sound funky (at least to me). I personally use it in a post-rock band and couldn't be happier.

Morely Power Wah Volume here. Looked at the Tremonti but went with this one. Nice wide sweep, not a fan of the switching system but when I use it I turn the heads of whoever's in the room :cool:.

I've tried the 535Q with my bass and it's great!!. Exactly the sound I was looking for. A bit of low end is missing but since I use it sporadically I can live with that.
