Colin mentioned this pedal in his blog
I've recently become a heavy user of the EBS FuzzMo pedal, it got a serious workout during the sessions for the next Metallic Taste of Blood album.
I've found it very useful not only for distorted, brutal bass sounds, but also for making ambient, textural and lead sounds in conjunction with a delay and either an ebow or a volume pedal.

It is a TU-2 (and not a TU-3) tuner based on the pedalboard image - there is no "press&hold" written under "Stream/cent" on the left upper corner of the pedal.
Even though Colin only mentions his boss tuner in this interview, in the pedalboard photo you can clearly see a boss harmonist positioned just to the right of the tuner.

My Amps and Other Gear:
EBS Fafner II, with 4 x 10″ Neodymium Cabs, Gigrig Pro 14 switching system with a selection of EBS pedals: Multidrive, Octabass, DPhaser, Tremolo, Bass IQ, Unichorus, Valvedrive and Multicomp. I also use a Digitech Timebender, Boss SL-20 Slicer and more recently the Electro Harmonix Ravish Sitar.
I love the Digitech Timebender for delay, and I use a Boss RC-20 Looper sometimes, although I am now going the laptop route with looping, having just bought a Keith McMillen Softstep to use with Mainstage, which I use for Ex-Wise Heads gigs.
In this interview Colin mentions using this pedal:
http://www.bassfrontiersmag.com/interview-with-colin-edwin
I use a Gigrig Pro switching system for my effects, with a collection of EBS pedals: a Multidrive, an Octabass, a Multicomp, a Multichorus, a Dphaser, a Valvedrive. a BassIQ and a Tremolo. I also have an EBS MicroBass II which I use as a DI box and Amp simulator.
He also mentions using this pedal in this way in another interview:
http://www.fretlessbass.com/edwin-colin/
... The MicroBass II is a great bit of kit and very useful, I use it all the time in the studio and especially for fly in gigs where I am having to use whatever amp is available, I can be confident the out front guy is getting the sound I want him to have if I am having to use an unfamiliar set-up.
Colin mentions using this pedal in this interview:
http://www.fretlessbass.com/edwin-colin/
I like to experiment with ebow on fretless which is great for textural and ambient sound and I also have a quite a collection of more creative effects too, Earthquaker Devices Afterneath is great on fretless and I like to use an EHX SuperEgo and Ravish Sitar at times too.
