Amp wise, nothing much of note- I had small combo's by Univox, Yamaha and Rickenbacker.

Axe-wise..whole different story.
The top 3 I wish I had back:
circa 83 Ibanez Musician in Pearl Black
Steinberger XM-2 in white w/black binding
PRE-EB MM Ray in natural/maple with black PG

Also used to own:
black Kramer Duke
3TS T-40
mid 80s Alembic Exploiter- (that sucker was GORGEOUS)
trans blue Spector NS-2A (I think I know where this one is, I MIGHT try to get it back but I need a couple of 5ers more right now)
Charvel 3B in Firecrackle
48th St Custom Shop Jazz in 3TS
heavily modded late 70's Fender Jazz
ESP LTD B404SM
Schecter Riot 5 (maybe be getting another one)
Frankenbass 5er that I ended up parting out
Yamaha BB614
SX Jazz in LPB w/matching old style headstock

This doesnt include the 7 basses I own right now.
