Right now I'm using an Earthquaker Devices Hoof Fuzz and I feel I'm losing my low end. I'm looking for a BIG, saturated fuzz. One that stacks well also. My board goes like this...
Second Voice V2 - Earthquaker Hoof - Black Arts Toneworks Black Forest OD - Morley Dual Bass Wah - Ampeg SVT Classic.

Big saturated fuzz?
Sounds like a muff. Check the Earthbound Supercollider, The Eau Claire Thunder, The Fuzzrocious Grey Stache, etc.

The hoof stacks well enough for me, I used an over drive to boost the mid range so I get crunchier feel to it. If you want massive low end, Dwarfcraft ECT is where you want to be.

Russian Muffs (or clones thereof) are my favorite bass fuzz. Keep the sustain low. Too much gain, whether it be from one pedal or stacked configurations will almost always squelch the fuck out of your PUNCH. I'm a less is more guy with bass fuzz. Bass needs to be punchy.

Aen (the dwarf behind Dwarfcraft) posts here pretty regularly, maybe hit up his subforum if you're looking at Dwarfcraft?

I'm all about the swollen pickle for bass fuzz. Nothing I've tried has beaten it out yet.

Way Huge Swollen Pickle. Turn the "crunch" trimmer all the way to the left.

The Eau Claire Thunder is one hell of a bassy fuzz.
As is the Team Awesome Fuzz Machine.
I have had both multiple times and they are awesome.

this, but i like the Wren & Cuff Pickle Pie B better than the Swolled Up Pickle.
TAFM is fucking awesome, 'specially if you get one with a gate switch as well. when it's clicked on it maxes out the fuzz volume so you can go from lighter to GBLKHSNDFL:HESAPOFIGHB IBX:LKFVFHPIUASVCOUYAVCOUYAZGXNCPVIUBSEBPVIUA.

Yeah, that gate switch is super awesome. It's not too gated either, just enough to give medium length decay and that dying texture.

yarp. pure. angry. unwashed. TITS.
..... i'm in a vietnamese place that's really good, but it smells kinda nasty at first. i'll adjust soon, but now unwashed things are very forefront in my brain meats.

TAFM has low end for days, LSTR is awesome. Musket is pretty decent too. Heard great things about the ECT but never been able to try one. Megalith looks great, check those out.
