Wow, how'd I never post to this one? I've played bass since 1976, and for a good long while I only had one guitar (my Yamaha FG-160) but several basses, even though I managed a guitar store...
Anyway- my bass rig now is:
Eden WT-400 head driving an Avatar SB-112 cabinet and an Avatar B-210 cabinet (both neo-drivers). I also have a Peavey T.B. Raxx tube pre-amp and a QSC PLX-1202 power amp in a rack.
Basses include:
A. Lakland Deluxe 4-94 fretted maple- stainless rounds
B. Lakland Deluxe 4-94 frettless ebony- nickle rounds
C. Lakland Skyline 55-01 fretted rosewood - stainless rounds
D. Fender Vintage Series '62 Precision (I bought it new in April 1982) - 10 year old flats
E. Fender Sting Signature Precision (excellent single-coil Precision style with contoured body, like a 1954-1957 Precision - 4 year old flats
F. Frankenstein that started life in '87 as a fretless Fender MIJ Jazz Bass Special, but eventually I replaced everything except the maple of the neck, three tuning machines, and the neck plate. Koa Jazz-shaped body, Duncan 1/4 Pounder P/J, Duncan's Steve Bailey Fundamental Fretless pre-amp, Hipshot Bass Extender key, Schaller roller bridge, and a thick slab of ebony for the fingerboard, she's got a set of three year old flats on her now, but had rounds on her until 2009.
G. Guild Pilot ca. '84 I think- Electric Blue and on loan to my 14 year-old niece.

Over the last 35 years I've owned and gigged regularly with two other Precisions, two pre EB Music Man StingRays, a Guild Pilot Pro, two Hamer Cruise Basses (both the bolt-on neck Jazz bass clone version, not the original set-neck ones), a Fender California P Bass Special, a Fender Geddy Lee Jazz, and another Lakland 4-94.
Amp heads over the years have been a Fender Bassman (black-faced 45 WRMS version), Music Man HD-130, Yamaha B-100 Mk III, Peavey Mk IV, Peavey Pro-Bass 1000 pre/CS-400 power amp, Hartke 3500, and an Eden WT-600.
Cabinets progressed from a Music Man 212RH, Yamaha S115, Fender Dual Showman with two 15" JBL's, Fender Bassman 2x12 (the original small one), Theile-Small designed TL-606 with EV 15", two original Guild/Hartke 4x10s, Hartke 210XL, Hartke 4.5XL, Eden D410XLT, Eden D212XLT, and a pair of Euphonic Audio VL-208s.
