I've had the fever forever. Tried it in a local shop. Was blown away. Yet, I haven't required one. Shame. Shame. Shame.

I'm a big believer in the Mellowtone Melxowtone. It is knobless, so I have to use my guitar's volume and tone to control it. Put a boost before it and there's an infinite of tones.

I would say the Prescription Electronics Depth Charge is my top fuzz for bass of all time. It has such a good mix of the fuzz and clean that it's ridiculous. Excane where are you?? You've used this shit in a band, I know it. So talk about you it lurker bastard.
Anyway, it's out of production, so that makes it hard to find now. Which sucks.
Out of your list though the TAFM is the most versatile, but Ryan from Fuzzrocious can also make that muff pretty versatile. So it kind of depends on the sound you want.
Yep. So glad I prepared for Prescription going under and stockpiled them like the zombie apocalypse.
One just popped up on eBay this morning...

I wanted to love the depth charge but I just couldn't get it to sound right with my rig.
The beauty of the TAFM for me was how well it stacked with other stuff. I could set it synthy and gated on its own and then hit it with OD and it was grind city. And I've never heard a better fuzz to put after a suboctave pedal. It just makes them sing. And destroy your foundation, but while singing
