The answer crosses categories so I put it in Basses since it gets the most traffic. Answers can be off beat. A few years ago I may have replied with "nail clippers".

So what do you have....?

Scion tC hatchback because now I can transport some "real" cabs. Tone and projection is much better.

My first bass. Finally fed the internal fire that was burning for years.

My SansAmp ParaDriver. Actually I think any DI that allows some tone shaping is absolutely invaluable equipment for most bass players.

Definitely my little MarkBass CMD 121 combo amp. So much sound and power that I can tuck under my arm! Holey Moley!

I have to say my Acoustic B100 amp. Compared to a 15watt practice amp its a huge difference in sound.

Mid-90s MIJ Fender Jazz, woodgrain with maple neck and pearl blocks. Was quite heavy, and I ended up badly routing the body out to add a P pickup, but I've kept the neck and it has now graced 4 different bodies - currently on an MIJ '82 Squier Jazz body. Best bass neck I've ever played or owned.

Probably my Epifani PS112. I like it so much I'm going to have to get another.

My bass...any one of them. Any other bass equipment kinda seems stupid if I didn't even own a bass.

Used Art Tube MP off of craigslist.
The passive humbuckers in my bass came alive.

My TL606. I paid for the parts but built it myself.
It is the best cab I have owned.
