Fender American jazz - Sunset Orange Transparent
Fender American P - Sunburst
Fender American P - Capri Orange
Fender Marcus Miller Jazz

Apparently I like Fenders.

Music Man Sterling - Family Reserve
RIC 4003
Gibson EB-3 (1970 something)

I dig them all. My American Jazz some how made its way as my main, as I'm always gigging it over the others. My favorite? Definitely the RIC, but somehow or another I'm always playing the Fenders. You can throw them things down a set of stairs and they will still be in tune and ready to gig.
 
11 basses, in no particular order:

•Yamaha TRB II 5-String
•'07 Gibson Thunderbird (Zebrawood)
•Fender BlackTop Jazz Bass
•Fender '62 RI Jazz Bass ("Fullerton bass" made in '83)
•Fender American Deluxe Dimension Bass HH 5-string
•'16 Fender American Elite 5-string Jazz Bass (w Aguilar's AG 5J-HC pick-ups & OBP3 preamp)
•Sandberg California II TM5 Jazz Bass
• '12 Fender Deluxe Active Jazz 5-string (sunburst Mexican)
•'12 Fender Deluxe Active Jazz 5-string (Olympic White Mexican)
•NS CR5M Electric Upright (slate grey 5-string)
•Matt Levonian custom MarbleHead 5-string

I guess I like 5-strings....

The USA Geddy Lee Jazz. I'm at two basses, and that's fine for me anymore.

2 - A MIM Fender Jazz 5 string and a Warwick Thumb BO 5'er. I get that 'classic' tone with the Jazz, and that 'unique' tone with the Warwick. Don't feel like I need anything else - until one day when I buy a Ric and a Wal. Then it'll be 4.
