Default Do you use effects on bass?

well simple question really, do you use effects?

I find my self using distortion and wah-wah from time to time although haven't used either in a band setting yet.

Fuzz
Wah
Chorus
Reverb

Not all at once though.

I don't have any effects, but I can see myself wanting to have some even if I do like the cleaner sound as well. I don't particularly like distortion on bass behind guitars, but if I'm just practicing or I'm playing something heavy behind a solo, I'd use distortion.
