It's always a great surprise to look for effects entirely designed for Bass, and find almost nothing on PedalPCB's website.
I am sure it's all just a simple misunderstanding, and there are many hopes to improve this dire situation ?
Let's remember that bass instruments as we know them appeared in the 60's, and bass players were left in shadows, in the back of the stage, behind the guitarists, for years. If I understood correctly, it's Larry Graham who was the first to step into to the light, he left Sly and the Family Stones to play with his own band, and play bass in the front of the stage :
I would start by a project that has no equivalent in the diy community, despite being very popular (in the top 3 for years) and very interesting :

This project is nowhere to be found in the diy community, so PPCB would have the lead on this one. Thousands and thousands of boards would be sold in a very short time. @Robert could become a life savior and a legend among bassists in one single strike !
The second project suggestion would be BOSS ODB-3, of course. There are already a few projects available, it's a classic for good reasons.
Can we still have hopes, or Bass dirt circuits are out of reach on PedalPCB ?

Aguilar - Agro Bass Overdrive
Hey guys was wondering if anybody has a schem or know what the aguilar od is based on. No pun intended! Bass player in the band needs an OD and I heard this one sounded great. I could build up a OD and voice it for bass but this was spot on... Any help
