I have yet to capture the majick with a bass. I have a really cheap early 70's kay shortscale bass, which works fine for home demos, but really sounds like ass isolated. My only bass amp is an 80's peavey tnt. So I haven't really captured anything good. My bass player is going to be over this week to do some bass tracks for me with his nice rig. I'll post asap.
What a nice rig he has too!

I saw this picture of Hendrix, all he used was a wah.... And not even the Jim Dunlop Jimi Hedrix wah, just some old thing.....
Jimi didn't realise the horrible tone suck we had to listen to every time he used that wah.
SICK. Really, really versatile as far as tonal options. That, in combination with the high/low switch and the diode switch allows for a shit ton of tones. I've tried settings from boost, to od, to all out fuzz and it all sounds good. It plays nicely with all my other pedals too. I'm definitely liking it a lot.
I built one for myself, a somewhat special affair, 6th pedal of the 6th batch. In Gold. With a clear white LED. I added an asymmetrical Germanium option on the diode switch. The bad: Unity gain (with germanium diodes) is about 2 o'clock on the volume dial. Still plenty of volume boost above 2 o clock. The good: sweet sweet warm lively fuzz.
