i saw a bassist have one on his board
i didnt get chance to hear it though
has anyone got one and is it any good for bass as its says guitar wherever ive looked

Love my old Rat on bass. I have an easy mod on mine which smoothes it out slightly and brings out the low end a bit. I tend to blend it with my clean sound too.

Love mine, especially modded to use the old LM308 chip as per the original Rats.

I think Caleb Schofield (Cave In, Old Man Gloom) uses one on his board for bass along with a Fulltone Fulldrive.

They are awesome! I also like the Marshall guv for bass. Mine is modded though.

It's quite prevalent on the first Does It Offend You, Yeah? album. Whenever you hear a bit of grind it's a stock Rat going through an SVT and Fridge, same story live, check "Let's Make Out" for a good hear. On pretty low gain but it sounds nice.

what modification would i make to the pedal to make it more smooth ?

buy a muff if you want heavily compressed fuzz
