Fantastic funky bubbly sound out of this thing. My only gripe is that it can be very difficult to dial in the settings to get it sounding just right. You need to fiddle with a lot of knobs, not only on the pedal, but also on your guitar and your amp to get the classic "bwop" sound to work. But once you find that sweet spot: it's funk city. I also can't recommend using a 9V power supply instead of a battery enough. This thing needs full juice. And sometimes a battery just doesn't cut it.

This is not like an EHX Bassballs. This is an extremely musical pedal. From thick bubbling to full funk, this pedal has ability to blend bass and FX to maximize the bass' fundamental. Very usable on lower settings if you want some huge, chunky effect, then bring up the Q and SENS knobs to dish out monstrous sounds that will take notice without losing your tone. Couple it with an Octave pedal for the extra push. It's great for many types of music.

I had a Mutron III back in the 70's and though rarely useful, when I did use it the Mutron sounded great. I just purchased and received this MXR pedal, based on a demo on Youtube by Ed Friedland, and I do think it sounds quite a bit like the Mutron, but has a little more control. I like the ability to dial in some dry sound so the entire signal is not affected. The Mutron has a downward slope, but I don't find that all that useful (envelope filters are only rarely useful anyway). For the money, this is damn good and looks really slick, for whatever that is worth.
This is THE pedal for Bootsy and other underwaterness for a sane price point. It's sound great and is versatile. Very solid build, beeyootiful dark metalflake paint.

Love the effect pedal and the included free excellent instrument cables made it an offer I couldn't refuse!
