Anyone have recommendations for essential pedals for a bassist? Besides a tuner, of course.

I was thinking about adding a compressor, but wondered how essential those were

    I have tried the bass big muff but not the soul food. What would you say are the differences between those fuzz pedals and when would you use one over the other?

      I basically leave my soul food on at all times. To my ear, the soul food is like a soft, warm buzz compared to the big muff which, at times, can sound like a buzz saw coming through the room. They both have their place, but for my purposes one is a permanent piece of my tone whereas the other is “press button to kick ass.”
