I've got problems if I can't be happy with this stuff (at least that's what I say to my wife!).
 
I'm happy too . I've got a pair of cheap 5 string Jazzes that work for me , an LMII that I love , a 310 neo cab that works as my one cab for all gigs and a neo112 three way cab that sounds amazing that does all my basement jam type needs . I'm building another mirror image 112 three way cab to stack with the other one just for something to do as a project .

I've got gas all the time but can't think of cab or head that I would rather have than what I've got . I could get more expensive basses but the ones I've had didn't do any more for me than my two cheap ones I've got now . It's kind of boring sometimes having a rig that totally works for you but I like it .
 
I've been happy with my main rig ever since I bought..... no GAS for a main rig at all.

-GK 700rbII
-GK Neo 212 series 1
-GK Neo 112 series 1
-EBS MultiComp (Greatest thing you can add to your GK rig)
-VT pedal (second greatest thing you can add to your GK rig.... SVT tone, but with the quick GK punch.... killer)
-Radial BassBone
-other assorted pedals
-'08 MIA P
-'92 MIA J
-'87 G&L SB1
-'02 G&L L2K

I have an old SWR WM112 combo for practice at home, and a GK rb800 with a couple of old hartke cabs at the rehearsal room.
 
Thanks to Jim B. yes I am.
Had to finally get a rig that got out of the way.
My previous SWR rigs went a long way in this direction. They could do old school and any newer form. It was the years with the GIIs then GIIIs that had me hear and desire even more capability.
TB used to fan the flames of gas because I was open to believing anything:). Really I just wanted better tone. Over the years my ear and my technique have improved so my requirements have expanded.
In short I'm very satisfied.
 
I'm happy with my setup. I have plenty of volume and a sound that I haven't messed with in months, not to mention all very reasonable priced.

Peavey Grind 4
Squier VM '77 Jazz (on the way)
Tech 21 VT pedal
Carvin BX1500
Carvin BRX410NEO

Well under $2K :)
 
Live: GK 800RB and Ampeg 8x10.

Studio: Ampeg B-15N and Traynor TS-50B plus an EVM-15L loaded TL-606 1x15.

On the amp tech's bench, awaiting repairs at which time it will likely make its way back into my live setup: MTI-era Ampeg SVT.

Yes, I am content on every level, thank you.

I've sold off some off this stuff, but overall, my basses, amps, and cabs all work very well together in many different combinations, so yeah, I'm pretty satisfied. :)
 
I haven't had any rig GAS in a long time. This works for me:

G-K Neo 112 Series I (two)
G-K 700RB-II
G-K MB-500
Roland Cube 100 combo

If I were starting from scratch, I'd probably get a more powerful combo and a G-K Neo212 cab instead of the two 1x12 cabs. I might also get the MB Fusion instead of the MB-500. I'm perfectly happy with my setup though.

On the guitar side, I frequently have GAS for a Mesa Express 5:25 combo or Fender tube combo, but my Roland Cube 60 is good enough for my purposes.
 
I'm pretty happy with my rig myself.
My rack consists of :
SWR power 750
SWR Marcus Miller preamp (Friggin love this thing)
Korg dtr-2000 tuner.
2U rack drawer (everybody needs one!)

2 SWR golights 4x10 8 ohm. (break in half for medium shows)

Small shows Ampeg BA300/210

Basses: music man stingray 4
30th anniversary stingray Fretless.

Vovox leads (patch,instrument,speakon)

So I'm pretty happy! Hopefully invest in a 5 string stingray at some stage, but it's not a major priority.

Would love a good practice amp.....hmmmmm........
