But my question is, do Frank, Mummy, and Tabasco play well together..
I'll see myself out now
I love it when EEK & BOO come to visit and yes they can jam. Halloween we get all sorts of visitors.

@HelpImaRock it is a deep machine that I am still learning to grok, the LFO section is still a bit baffling to me and all the permutations of fuzz are staggering.
Just scored a fretless and wanted a simple setup to play around with. I think this is the most basic I can get without ditching the board entirely.
Mounted on this quick and easy pedal board are a Snark tuner and a Broughton "always on", frequency selectable high pass filter. The surface is 1/4" ABS. On the bottom I've attached a self-adhesive non-skid surface. I may actually keep the pedal board on top of my amp as opposed to the floor.
The bass plugs in on the left and the HPF "out" is connected to the amp.
Edit: It looks like both pedals overhang the board, but they are actually recessed by about 1/8".

Back to basics.
OD and Chorus.
Minimal.

Update:
Last year (?) I asked a friend to build me a DOD 250. He wanted to do something a little more adventurous. Around the same time, VFE pedals closed and sold all their boards to a DIY site. KRAMMSTEIN! is of course named for Tom Cram. I’m using it here as a clean boost to normalize the gain levels between my Reverend Watt (high output) and Danelectro Bass Six (low output). I could have used my BOSS LS-2 but this fits better on the board.

One barbershop as a boost and the other as an OD/dist?
Hello team! I got a lot of compliments for my bass tone, playing with a Squier PJ through peavey tour 450 and this little rig.
Thats all i need for a cleanish yet aggressive tone. I had to fight with 2 screaming Marshall stacks at a thrash metal rehearsal and i did really well. Lmb-3 i love you. I will never sell you again, i promise.

More so for getting extra Barbershop character.

Put this together today - I just shared it on the Pedaltrain Nano thread, then thought it might be of interest here also. Nano with GT-1000 Core, Source Audio C4, and Chronograph. Cioks 4 velcro'd below. I have an expression pedal that goes in the left of the Core. The space on the right will probably host a tuner or EQ. The cables are more-or-less tidy underneath. The Core seems to be getting enough power from just one output on the Cioks, which I wasn't expecting. This board can be so minimal because I'm sending MIDI from Ableton Live to change patches and turn things on/off.

I wish the chronograph was still available!

That and the Bright Switch are my favourite’utility’ pedals!
My pedaltrain mini and the rest of my bass guitar setup hasn’t changed in a long time. I play keys also so no need to go too crazy with pedals.
That's a nice 2 box solution, pretty much covers most needs!

Famous last words a few months ago... 'I'm done'
I wasn't really utilizing the SourceAudio C4 and Aftershock (and, honestly, running HX Edit + SA's software was a bit much for me... too much menu diving). Put an expression pedal on the end, and put a Pork & Pickle in the chain to have dedicated dirt.
I love the stuff I can do with the stomp, but I still feel like it's overkill since I'm running into a dedicated amp 90% of the time. I go back and forth on loving the sounds and getting frustrated with menu diving. I feel like I'd keep it around for electric guitar even if I went back to more individual pedals for bass.
