To be specific, the Behringer SF300 Super Fuzz, which is the most awesome thing you can buy for £25 or less in the known universe .
Even if you find you don't like fuzz at all then it's actually a decent two-band EQ preamp.

Maybe a decent compressor?

A decent compressor

Compressor is always useful, as is a good EQ pedal so you can change things per tune if needed. I have my regular tone, and then 2 others. Far easier than faffing on the amp controls and then trying to put them back.
Roland Bass Cubes are excellent practice amps.
And for the stuff you’ve said you want to play, a large yellow car washing sponge to cut up to get under the strings at the bridge.

And wilco on the sponge Though I like the idea of the upside-down Jaguar mute as seen on the CS Sean Hurley P. But I'll stick with a sponge for now. Can you get black ones?

Also, different types of compressors have radically different effects on the tone. I use a comp in my current band, but found my old compressor just made things dull, and have instead borrowed an optical compressor from one of the guitarists and it sounds so much better.
Yuk!
