Bass Wah or envelope filter?

Depends on what you want to do with it.

I have both a G-Labs Wah and several envelope filters...

If your question really is about the difference between envelope filters and 'autowah' pedals... I'd say that there is so much variation among envelope filters that you could just put them all into the same category, and choosing one becomes a matter of trying several and finding the one you like best.

Most of the time I'd plump for an envelope filter, just because it's a 'set and forget' sound, and I can run around and be an idiot whilst funking out.
There are times when I want a slow sweep though, and a wah is much better for that sort of thing.

Yes, I bought mine off the back of that and am very satisfied with. It takes up a lot of space on the pedal board though!

I just got a Hotone Bass Press, much smaller and sounds great. Miss the instant-on action of my old G-Lab though.
