Current Setup

Main Setup:
home built 8-string bass (extended range)
Demeter VTPB-201S preamp
Behringer DEQ2496 digital equalizer / processor
Stewart World 1.2 power amp
Acme B4 4 ohm
Acme B2 8 ohm

Upton Hawkes Hybrid Upright (though I play electric on jazz gigs whenever I can)

Gear I still have but don't use much:
Zon lightwave 6-string fretless
2 home built 5-strings
Bose PAS (1st generation) with 2 B1 subwoofers
(The Bose with 2 B1's has a great sound for low to medium volume gigs but it just can't pump out the low end like the Acme B4 can. It's also more of a pain to transport and setup than the Acme B4 + rack. I've tried various combinations of the bose + acme and I can get a cool sound but transport is ridiculous)
