Funny bass sound..distortion?

The bass sounds very interesting and cool (Some, however would probably say it's terrible). It's a farty, growly sound. Anyone know if this is an effect or what? I was thinking it could be some type of distortion but it's hard to tell. I can get a similar sound playing through a 15w tube guitar amp but it's just not farty enough. I need more fartiness (?)
