The Creation Audio Labs Funkulator is a one-knob EQ tone shaper for bass built specifically with old-school slap and funk playing in mind. A single control sweeps a variable upper-midrange scoop paired with a gentle low and high boost, moving from a mild mid cut toward an increasingly pronounced scooped, hi-fi voicing reminiscent of a classic 70s Jazz Bass slap tone as it's turned up. A footswitch lets players engage or bypass the EQ instantly mid-performance. While designed for slap, it works well with finger and pick style playing too, ranging from a deep, rich bass tone at low settings to a bright, scooped, cutting voice at higher settings. It suits funk and slap bass players wanting fast, one-knob access to a classic scooped bass EQ.
The Lazy Bear Effects High Pass Filter is a boutique utility pedal that rolls off low frequencies below a chosen cutoff point, a tool commonly used to tighten up a muddy or bass-heavy signal before it hits a fuzz, overdrive, or amplifier. Rather than adding gain, modulation, or color, its job is subtractive, cleaning up low-end buildup that can make fuzz pedals in particular sound flabby or undefined, especially on bass guitar or baritone-tuned instruments. Boutique high pass filter pedals like this one are a niche but well-understood tool among players fine-tuning how a fuzz or drive circuit responds to their instrument's specific frequency content.
