Simply The Best
Simply the best piece of equipment a bass player can buy. It will transform your sound more than you can imagine. This little box makes everything sound better, your amp, your bass, your recording. It puts all other processors to shame no matter what they cost. It's built so well it's bullet proof. If you are considering anything else consider this, run to Guitar Center, and please try this first, no exaggeration, it's that good.

every bassist should own one
This pedal just kills. It adds so much clarity to your bass sound.
I carry this with me to every gig. Sometimes the bass rig is broken when I arrive at the club. No issue, just use this as a DI and your set. My sound is always the same no matter what I am running through. Plus this pedal lets you dial in some great usable tones.
Want an SVT like overdrive tone, no problem. Want some dub lowend, just turn a few knobs.
I use this as a preamp for most gigs, so I just run the bass into this and then the Sansamp into the effects return on my amp.
My tone, all the time.
Its built like a tank.
It also sounds GREAT on guitar. It really just spices up the tone and bring everything out front in the mix.
Its a staple in my gigbag and it should be in yours to.

Sansamp Bass Driver DI
The Sansamp is a great product, it takes care of any impedence problem I have encountered, sounds better than any other pre-amp I've used and has great fuzz effects, I give it two thumbs up. I've used it with an SWR amp and an Ampeg amp, and it enhances the sound on both. The Presence dial is fantastic as well.

magic box
I've had a Bass Driver DI for about 6 years. They just can't be beat as a way to give your bass a nice tube sounding overdrive. The EQ on it is simple and flexible.
The only thing better than having one is having 2. I use the first one as a distortion out to my amp and use the second one as a DI with the treble rolled off so it doesnt sound raspy in the PA.

Handy SVT emulator
This producet remains propular after 10 years or so because it's so reliably useful and durable. Not to mention a bit easier to move than the 8x10 SVT that it emulates! The controls are all very intuitive and the thing keeps working. You'll have to plug in to actually get a taste of it, but the ability to blend in direct tone as well as overdrive and presence makes this thing actually quite versatile.
Can be powered with internal battery (you have to unscrew the thing to get at it) or via phantom power from the mic preamp. Great for stage use but sounds good enough for studio use as well.
