Victor Wooten's Gear
The Flecktones website insists that Victor uses the RC-50 loop station.
Victor posts this image on his official site saying "While on tour, I use a Boss GT6B for most of my effects. I also use a Boss RC 20XL or a Boss RC50 Loop pedal when I'm touring or doing clinics."
Victor posts these bass strings on his official site saying "I use the following D'Addario strings live and in the studio."
In this video ZOOM shows the versatility of the Zoom B3 / Bass Effects & Amp Simulator Pedal and the contribution with the creation of patches developed by Bass Players such as Victor Wooten, David Ellefson , Frank Bello & Doug Wimbish.
Victor posts this image on his official site saying "The Rodenburg Pedal is incredible! It's a simple pedal that boost your volume up to 15db. It also has a low-end boost. This pedal is so clean. The builder showed up at a SMV gig last year and presented Stanley, Marcus, and me with a pedal each. Each one is a different color and has our own serial number on the back. I think he only made three of them. I hope he makes more. This pedal is too good."
Victor is playing his original Yin-Yang bass in this image.

In this video Victor Wooten can be seen playing bass and using the 3Leaf Audio You're Doom Fuzz Guitar Effects Pedal. A shot of the pedal can be seen at the 1:30 mark. At the 0:38 mark, a voice can be heard telling Wooten a bit about how to use the pedal: “And then the other thing you can do that’s really cool is if you palm mute with it when the tone’s all the way down on the bass… when you let the note decay, for some reason the palm muting brings out this really cool synth kind of thing.
In this image you can see Victor playing his Fedora Monarch. According to his official site Victor says this is "A Fodera Monarch with an ebony and yellow wood top. This bass sounds a bit jazzier than the other Yin Yang bass. It has a newer set of EMG pickups. I think they're called EMGx."
Victor posts this image on his official site saying "Source Audio just provided me with a new Distortion pedal. The Soundblox Pro Multiwave Bass Distortion. This thing is amazing. It can store 6 presets (including EQ) and has many different types of distortion. It'll allow you to choose the frequencies to get effected as well as give you distortion up an octave. (I have no idea how it does that.) You can also use an expression pedal to fade between presets. It's way cool."
Vic says he uses these strings on his official site.
"This was built by my friend Joe Compito. It has a purple heart top and an ebony fingerboard with purple heart fret markers. It was the first fretless or 5-string Joe had ever built. (He got it right the first time.) I've used this on many Flecktones recordings including "Flight of the Cosmic Hippo"."
"Hello my name is Victor Wooten and I'm here to tell you about my Hartke head of choice: the LH1000. It's a full 1000 watts...I like it also because it's very very simple," Wooten says, at 0:31 in this video.
Used for softer bass parts in group settings.
Victor posts this image on his official site saying "On tour, in the studio, and in my iPhone, I use Peterson Strobe Tuners. They work great. You can set them for different types of tunings and it also works for piano. I have many different types of Peterson tuners. Stomp box, rack mount, and iPhone models."
"I was totally surprised and blown away by the new Hartke HyDrive cabinets. I choose to endorse this company and have been using them now since the beginning of 2008. I usually use two 4x10 and two 1x15 speaker cabinets."
Victor's feet are active using a custom foot pedal called MidiMix. It controls a unit called Sound Canvas made by Roland which allows him to play notes and keyboard type sounds. It gets used on tunes like The Chase or Stomping Grounds. It also controls the settings for the JamMan.
