In the 60s fuzz bass was a brief blip on the radar screen, with Paul McCartney ("Think For Yourself") and Bill Wyman("Have You Seen Your Mother Baby") plugging into Vox Tone Benders or Hugh Hopper's spaced out Fuzz Face excursions with Soft Machine.
In fact, I plugged in my old Fuzz Face to A/B the two and the Boss (with the EQ flat) was remarkably similar, although somewhat quieter.
While my ancient Fuzz Face used to be my bass fuzz of choice, the ODB with its EQ facilities and balance control lets me dial in a fatter sound with greater dynamic control.
