Bass players----pedals?

Bass player, when would one want or need to use pedals?

---

why would you not?

pedal tuner, fuzz, octave, compressor, tremolo, wah, delay etc

Tuner, octave, envelope filter, fuzz, flanger, chorus, delay.

I've used a distortion pedal and envelope filter before but otherwise see no need for them for bass.

I have no experience with them. What would be a good starter model?

what do you want to do? what kind of music?

Depends on what you're trying to do?

It helped keep it interesting when practicing alone. Bass can be boring as hell for beginners.

I have a Black Russian big muff. It's great.

What's a good fuzz and wah for bass?

for fuzz, there's like 5000 different fuzz pedals. it's about what circuit you like and what you want it to sound like.
pedalsandeffects.com is a site I frequent. juan alderente is someone with a shite ton of knowledge about pedals in general and there's a lot of demos on there that they film.

as far as fuzz goes you have big muff, rat, fuzz face etc... a lot of pedals built today if not most are derivatives from those circuits that the pedal builder has tweaked to do different things.
