Interesting question. Oddly enough, I think mine would be Fender. I would say Sadowsky, but I wouldn't want to be confined to a 200-watt tube amp. I've got three Fender basses, and I've played through some of their amps that sound pretty decent. So I think I could put together some good rigs with Fender's line-up.

I think they have excellent basses, and their selection of amps have greatly improved.

Probably Fender, without a smokin bass the amp is pointless.

Close second to Yamaha though.

I'd also say Fender. I've played their basses since i started and have owned 2 of their amps. Granted-the second amp is what drove me to get a rack setup, but hey.

I'd probably swap my Fender basses for Ampegs before surrendering my SVT.
