Such as these?:

Not if it's sits in an effect loop that only gets switched on/is in the signal chain when the pedal is in use, which would be the case here (the whole reason why the reverse phase is an issue in the first place). But, yes, still not a viable solution.

From 2 separate gigs, playing with Menfolk, the hardcore and noiserock influenced math rock band I once played bass in, wielding my main at the time, my trusted Aria Pro II Laser Electric Classic : I think respectively playing the end bass noise "solo" section of "Are We Enemies" and the intro section of "Whose Loss is This".

Except for the LPF not going any lower than 10kHz on that NUX preamp which is a pretty high cut for emulating any non high frequency tweeter equipped bass cabinet, around 3 to 4 kHz would be more like it. It's still a useful tool for finetuning the upper high end response of various IR cab sims, especially if it is of a cab with a build in high frequency tweeter, but not really suited to emulate a bass cab standing alone.

"Holy Mudbucker, Batman!"

The big butt, no legs, short arms, long neck, small head, nasal voice, bass?

The preamp in my Aria Pro II Laser Electric Classic, produced in 1986, runs on 2 9V batteries as well.

Also with an actual bass cab connected?

Pretty far from commonly in my experience, I have tried this with several different drive pedals and never experienced any issues like this. Yes, distortion pedals that inverse the phase absolutely does exist, but really rather an uncommon than common issue. But just to be safe you could get the EHX Switchblade Pro Deluxe, EHX Tri Parallel Mixer, the One Control Mosquito Blender Trail, or the Old Blood Noise Endeavors Signal Blender, though these options are all a bit more expensive than the Boss LS-2, but unlike the LS-2 all with the option of inverting the phase of the effect loop(s) (though the phase inverter switch of the Switchblade Pro Deluxe is located inside the pedal, so one will have to open the pedal to switch it on). The most compact of these, is all you need is adding a clean bend to a one distortion pedal, would be the One Control one.

Congratulations. And guess I was wrong then about it being a RAT. In any case using a high gain distortion/fuzz with clean blend, or getting something like the Boss LS-2 or similar that allows for blending any pedal with clean signal, might be a good idea going forward for the distorted parts. And even if it turned out to originally be a Big Muff I still think something like the RAT based MXR M85 Bass Distortion, as I suggested in my initial reply, would do well for this sort of thing.

Anyone tried the Vox MV 50 CL Clean, 50W mini amp (designed with guitar in mind) featuring a Nutube based preamp and a Class D poweramp, as a bass amp, and if so what was your experience? Eventually with the EQ "Deep" switch on the back panel, originally meant for improving the bass response of the mini cabinet the Vox also sells and makes for them (and not needed for regular cabinets, but thought it might still be useful when used for bass maybe)? I am really intrigued by it, and I don't really need more than the 50W @ 4Ohm RMS it is rated to be able to deliver. Love how it looks, and it only weight slightly above 0.5 Kg/1 lbs. Actually small enough to be fitted on a pedal board, about the same size as 2 standard Boss pedals. Pretty cheap too: 1490 Danish Kroner/199 Euro/175£ at Thomann. And it generally gets really great reviews, used for guitar, as intended, at least (haven't been able to find any info about people using it as a bass amp).

Calling all woke mods! That thread title can't possibly be legal!

This is another of my absolute favorite YouTube concert clips: And yes, I am fully aware that Tortoise is generally categorized as being a post-rock band, but come on, this is pretty damn jazzy, and as far as I am concerned their music, and especially from the albums that the tracks they play in this video are on ("TNT", "Standards", "It's All Around You"), could just as well had been categorized as jazz, if, again, not exactly traditional jazz. For certain, beyond discussion, this is by far way more jazz than rock. Even when it comes to the instrumentation.

I really like the design of the ESP LTD F-204/F-1004 models:

And not just a P Bass, but a P Bass with flatwound strings on.

Doesn't the Darkglass Neural DSP feature a build in photon jet engine? If not it ought to at that price.

Yes, fully adjustable HPF and LPF effect models, with adjustable slope as well, though 12dB/Oct being the max applicable slope (but you could easily get around that by stacking multiple filters (a 12dB/Oct HPF stacked into a 12dB/Oct HPF for instance set at the same frequency essentially is the exact same as a 24dB/Oct HPF)).

No such thing, having widely diverse influence can only be an advantage, and my influences are probably even more diverse. Though probably not the best way to write a "seeking musicians for starting a band" add. Good thing he is a musician then and not in the advertising/marketing business.

Also I used to play bass in a hardcore and noise rock influenced math rock band that consisted of a guitarist/vocalist, 2 bass players and a drummer, me having the role as sort of a lead bass player, using a brighter tone and alternating between playing melodic parts, noise parts, counter parts to both the other bass and the guitar, or playing unison with either the guitarist, just one octave lower obviously, or the other bass player, depending, whereas the other bass player filled out the more traditional, consistently supportive, role of a bass player.

I guess if I should actually answer to the premise of the OP, which I initially overlooked, and only chose 4 pedals, it would have to be these, for a scraped down version of the core of my "amp-less" setup, for my basic "clean" tone : Mosky XP Booster (clone of the Xotic EP Booster V1) -> EHX Black Finger (tube driven optical compressor, with 2 preamp tubes operating at proper high 300V plate voltage, mainly used as a tube preamp stage, driven to just at the edge of the tubes's breakup point, but with some very subtle compression dialed in as well) -> Zoom B1Xon (mainly used as reverb unit, including the {very subtle plate reverb -> subtle spring reverb} patch that is part of my basic "clean" tone) -> NUX Melvin Lee Davis Bass Preamp + DI (loaded with a digitally emulated Aguilar Tone Hammer amp, and an Ampeg SVT-212AV IR cab simulation, with a subtle low gain overdrive blended in at a 50/50 clean/drive ratio) I know the Zoom is technically a multi effect, but in this context it would then be exclusively for my always on reverb, as part of my basic "clean" tone. And again, if my basic "clean" tone was already covered, then this: Boss LS-2 [Loop A + Loop B Mix] (effects loop switcher/mixer) ->{ [Loop A Send] -> TC Electroni Sub'N'Up Mini (digital polyphonic octaver, exclusively used for a custom made 1 octave up Toneprint, always used stacked into either the {Behringer MD300 Mega Distortion -> Joyo Orange Juice}, or sometimes just the Joyo Orange Juice, in front of it) -> Behrringer HD300 Heavey Distortion (Boss MD-2 Mega Distortion clone, dialed in to deliver a high gain distortion, and stacked into the Joyo Orange Juice in front of it, and then mixed with clean signal rom effects [Loop B]) -> Joyo Orange Juice (Orange amp like overdrive, dialed in to deliver a medium gain overdrive, either used alone, mixed with clean signal from effects [Loop B], or with the Benhringer MD300 Heavy Distortion behind stacked into it, and mixed with clean signal from effects [Loop B]) ->|+|<- [Loop B Send] -> [Empty Loop] (for clean signal blend, either mixed with the {Behringer MD300 Mega Distortion -> Joyo Orange Juice}, or just the Joyo Orange Juice, from effects [Loop A]) => [Loop A Return] + [Loop B Return] (mixed at an approximate 2:1 ratio) => [LS-2 Output] }->
