adrian	Re: Got Bass? If you have a tube amp and like the distortion it can produce boosters of various kinds are great. I like the Minibooster a lot. That one is nice and natural sounding. My current pedal is a diy EH Hogs Foot bass booster which is fun if you want the overloaded Acoustic 360 sound sometimes (big and blown up, distorted and bassy - no highs). If fuzz ya want - Big muff is great for bass - can get sort of an old synth/brass type of tone. Overdrive with wet/dry blend works well for cleaner amps... Have fun. The Fuzz Face never worked in my bass world, BTW.
