That is the antithesis of tame if you ask me
He used some effects later on though, a lot of Boss stuff
He had a BF-2 flanger and a Boss BD-1 Driver, OC-2 and he used a compressor a lot.
As well as the Rangemaster / Hawk booster thing.
Yeah he experimented with BOSS and DOD but his signature tone was Hawk booster > Amp. And by god did he have great tone.

Mark Linkous. I think he had like a few Boss pedals and an MM4 or something.
Emanuel Ayvas from Emanuel & The Fear. He had a tremolo of sorts and I think a dirt pedal or two.
An assortment of not really guitar related bands who have tame pedalboards spring to mind but they are kind of cheap.
I know his studio sound was heavily processes but i wont call this pedalboard lame:

How I miss him...

I'm taming down my pedalboard, right now I'm at 2. At most I'll have 4.

(Right now I just have Peppermint Fuzz and a Carbon Copy, I'm hoping to add a Seppuku Repeater and maybe one more fuzz)

I thought I'd seen/read of him using an Ibanez Stereo Chorus and occasionally a wah.
i'm pretty sure all he did was just overload the shit out of his cabs. he used old acoustic heads rated around 300 watts higher than the speakers, which would constantly blow and he would replace with paper cones. using chorus for turn it out does make sense, but in the live videos i've seen of it he just puts his bass right up on his cab and scratches the strings
britt daniel of spoon is one of my favorite guitarists. his board has grown a bit recently but for a long time all he used was a boss pn2, klon and a memory man i think

Oh yeah! That didn't occur to me, but I guess up until In Utero all he had was a DS-1 and a Small Clone.

Buckethead...
Saw the guy in concert front row right in front of his pedalboard and he had surprisingly few for what kinds of sounds he gets.
Secret weapon = Line 6 FM4

That would be the one dirt pedal. But man did he get good dirt tones out of that.
