BASS EFFECTS ARE MORE IN VOGUE now than they’ve ever been.

MXR M287 Sub Octave Bass Fuzz

Partially this is due to the increasing influence of pop, hiphop, and dance music. As genres that embrace synths dominate the charts, the electronically derived sounds that define them are increasingly trendy. I think the Internet, globalism, and desktop manufacturing are responsible, too. Never before has it been so easy to get detailed effect schematics, solicit advice from experts in online forums, and order cheap parts from factories all over the world. Just as with basses, a player looking for a new stompbox has a range of big-time manufacturers and boutique builders to choose from.
