YOUR TOP 3 BASS PEDALS...GO!

[FretNoMore]

Best as in most used:

- [sfx] micro Thumpinator
- Empress Compressor
- TC Electronic Polytune

Best as in good at what they do: Pick any pedal off my board, which is best changes from song to song.

 

[Dazonbass]

B7K

FEA dual band compressor

MXR analog chorus

so close... I would replace the MXR with a Submarine.

 

[TOOL460002]

Sansamp BDDI
Boss PS-3
Chunk System Octavius Squeezer

Between those you can get a Preamp and distorted OD tone from the BDDI, pitch shifting, octaver, delay, and weird space noises from the PS-3, and envelope filters, fuzz, sub octaver, synths, and some other fun sounds from the Octavius Squeezer.

I would love to add a parallel looper and an Eden WTDI to that list and I could cop almost any sound. A DBX compressor at the end of the chain would also be a bonus. But that's another three pedals. Kinda.

1. early issue Fulltone Bassdrive (before all that MOSFET stuff was added)

- used this for 7 or 8 years until I got these two...

2. Xotic BB Bass Preamp
3. W&C Tall Font Russian

there are normally octave, chorus and delays involved but these 3 see / have seen the most use by a mile, and I'm less fussy about other types of effect
